When it comes to the most handsome and muscular men in all of Hollywood, Henry Cavill just might be the first name to pop into mind. With the body of a Greek God and the features of the most ideally attractive man ever, the British actor is super popular among fans and is a renowned heartthrob, even at the age of 40. But as it turns out, the Superman actor doesn’t quite like being shirtless on-screen.
As revealed by Henry Cavill himself, during the shoot of Zack Snyder’s $873 millionBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,the then 32-year-old actor hated showing his skin for the movie.

Henry Cavillhas been a fan-favorite way before his portrayal of Superman. An idol dreamboat with a Greek God physique, the 40-year-old actor has fans swooning over him from all around the world, especially loving his shirtless scenes in movies including Zack Snyder’s $873 millionBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
However, theMan of Steelactor doesn’t really like being naked on the big screen. In an interview, when asked if he was comfortable being shirtless and showing a lot of skin on-screen, Cavill responded by saying,
“Are you kidding me? I had to start telling the producers, ‘Stop making me take my clothes off.’ One year they said, ‘For the publicity shot, we’re going to have you shirtless holding a horse.’ I said, ‘Why the f–k am I shirtless? My character has changed. He’s a morose, depressed dude.’ They’re like, ‘Yeah…but people love it.'”
Judging from his reaction, it’s rather obvious that Cavill doesn’t enjoy being n*ked or shirtless all the time, a request of his that should be respected. But being a superstar with fans who love his Greek God body, he has to do it, regardless.

“I don’t consider it being objectified. If people like to see me with my shirt off, it’s enormously flattering. But that doesn’t mean I’m going to take my shirt off all the time.”
While he appreciates his fans for commending him,Zack Snyder‘sBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justicescenes where Henry Cavill had to shoot as a shirtless Superman did manage to piss the superstar off.
