They're going to fuck him over again where he's the only one putting in effort compared to the rest of the cast aren't they?
They always do it to him with these media with niche audiences.
Why he keeps coming back, is he a battered wife
Gotta get that illusive modern audience somehow.
There aren't many roles for an attractive while man these days.
That's on him then tbh
He had enough chances to learn. if he still didn't he is complicit (or he is utterly lit. retarded)
I’m sure they will screw him over or make some current year change (like Netflix needing to include gay stuff) that he is against since it goes against source material
Henry Cavil is a talented and reasonably based actor. But holy fuck, he needs to fire the shit out of whoever his agent is. He keeps getting offerred nothing but shit sandwiches.
Behold as the truth suddenly makes other things a lot more understandable: His agent is the ex-wife of The Rock.
That's why he cameoed in Black Adam before being canned as Superman, because while she is The Rock's ex-wife she's also still his agent too. It was a setup from the start.
There aren't many roles for men that look like him. He either does what he can get, or his career fades faster.
This. Once upon a time a Chad looking dude like him could get all sorts of roles. But in the modern feminist, LGBT, Jew and other assorted "minority" shithole that is Hollywood he has very little to work with.
People need to make their own movies.
I think it's all actorial (actTorial) theatre (theeaaytar). Same way we have controlled opposition in politics.
End of the day though. Cavill is a performing monkey.
It's Amazon. They're going to ghey up and heap depravity on his character and he's going to be forced to walk away again.
It's like a macabre humiliation ritual at this point.
The last modern Voltron was already a tumblr infested shitshow of shipping and gay upon gay to the point where it was one of the big shows that had them driving each other to suicide bullying over it.
I don't foresee this going any better, regardless of how good of a guy he is.
I remember I was going to check out the Netflix Voltron til someone warned me that it was very “Netflix”
Its not even that its Netflix, its Tumblr Pure through and through. Its well beyond what Netflix does.
He’ll be the only white guy and he’ll be the “prince” in the series. A non-straight black woman will be the leader and is the bestest ever.
Is he gonna play the part of the guy who was supposed to pilot the black lion, and then died in the first episode?
I don't think he died in the American version. I may be getting it confused, though. I think they put him in a coma
You're right, but I seriously doubt they'd get that detail correct.
Welp, my wife suddenly likes Voltron
Women seem to respond to Cavill for some reason
Because he is stupidly hot? Like... just a guess. In a sea of femm-y, starved twink looking celeb men and douchey black dudes?
It's a breath of fresh air when you see a famous man who is not Timothee Chalamet or Michael B Jordan.
We have some of the phased out old avengers (like Hemsworth) and like... that dude from Teen Wolf who was baby Superman on Supergirl? Maybe some older actors, like Jon Hamm?
Few and far between. But we have some tweaker in dress or the "urban" one white women pretend is too rich to slap them around every single week.
Plus, Cavill was really nice during the Rona. Every celeb was Imagine'ing and telling you that we all have to sacrifice things.
He posted his Warhammer painting, the bread he baked and his dog and horses on Twitter.
As a heterosexual male I will say he is a handsome man
I can think of a couple of reasons.
He can reload his arms
They think he's Super. They're Bewitched by him. They're ready to do it for the emperor. Apparently now they want to connect and make a larger cat.
Knowing Amazon, he's gonna play Pidge, isn't he?
