Henry Cavill Movies
Actor
Henry Cavill studied drama at Stowe School in England before trying his hand at a professional career in show business, beginning with a small role in
The Count of Monte Cristo in 2001.
Cavill was 18 and had already developed the square jaw and piercing stare that would soon make him a successful leading man, going up for roles like Bruce Wayne in
Batman Begins and even James Bond in
Casino Royale. He lost those roles to more well-known actors, but had no trouble building up his résumé with supporting roles in movies like
Tristan & Isolde, before scoring the prominent role of Charles Brandon on the Showtime series
The Tudors in 2007. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide
