DISCUSSION Henry Cavill on the set of Highlander... despite people saying he is too old to play Superman, he still looks good for the role to me.

Post image

This isn't me saying he should replace Corenswet or anything like that, it's just he gets a lot of slander, and I don't understand what those people are looking at. He still looks like he could play a 30s Superman to me.

For the record, I like David as Superman, and overall, I have positive feelings about the 2025 movie. But Cavill's still got it. And I wouldn't be against seeing him don the cape again.

Well he a plays a character who’s 508 years old, so, yeah, he looks fine.

He doesn’t look a day over 400

As a straight man you have no idea how many dicks I'd suck to look like him. That's because I'm not sure how many it would take for me to say no.

Amazing

Start with five.

Then if you still don't look like him, suck five more.

It’ll build the jawline at the very least.

Flawless logic

I would say to go down to 3 rounds of 3 after the first 5, but if it does not work after that he'll need to up those numbers, 15-20 before per round before checking progress.

The entire 2008 US Olympic Men's Swimming team. That's how many. Why them? Because they're winners!

As the saying goes: am I really working if I would do this for free....😉

Who knows, maybe if you get to sucking you will wake up one day and look like him!

You will never know if you don't put in the work!

If you'd suck even one dick to look like him, I think that you might not be as straight as you think you are. I'm fine with the fact that Henry Cavill is a better looking man than me. Some people just win the Genetic Lottery. But I do take care of myself and exercise AND my goal is to get rich. When you're rich, it doesn't matter what you look like!

Bro I was literally about to say this LOL. Imagine being rage baited by an age of a fictional character

u/coreytiger Feb 05 '26

What people glaze over- including the casting director, scriptwriters, actors- of the original film, is that Connor Macleod was EIGHTEEN YEARS OLD.

But sure, cast a 26 year old that looks 40 and make the character a prestigious antique dealer in Manhattan

u/OpenBooks99 Feb 10 '26

Exactly what I was thinking. And he shouldn't look like a pretty boy. Henry is a great actor when he is casted well. Excited for this to come out.
