"SECOND CINEMA " British actor Henry Cavill has become a household name in recent years, largely due to his role as Superman in the DC Extended Universe. Man of Steel was the first installment of the property, and Cavill's performance as Krypton's last child was praised. Recently, Cavill has taken on some more iconic roles in Netflix projects like the protagonist Geralt in The Witcher and Sherlock in Enola Holmes. The last film hit the streaming service last week, and Cavill explained why playing the iconic detective was more "liberating" than Superman and Geralt. " "Henry Cavill's career has grown a lot in recent years, but the 37-year-old actor has also been tasked with playing some really loved characters. Each of these roles probably comes with its own pressure, although Cavill admits that playing Sherlock in Enola Holmes was a different experience. He recently talked about pressure from Geralt and Superman, saying"("It's funny, I try not to focus on the pressure aspect, I make it more of a personal mission than an aspect of the pressure. Be it Superman, be The Witcher, be Sherlock Holmes, I'm not feeling the external pressure. It's more about me - certainly with Superman and The Witcher - these are characters that I grew up with and love and I really want to represent as accurately as possible. That for me was a huge thing and it is still a huge thing. ")(Henry Cavill)"When it comes to Sherlock Holmes, I wasn't necessarily reading Sherlock Holmes' books. Thus, I managed to absolve myself of this duty that I attribute to myself, which is to be faithful to the law; it's always about the details. I'm the most boring guy on the set, because I'm saying, 'Excuse me, you know this should be happening and they wouldn't do it and you didn't read it, so that means it would be impossible. Everyone is just saying, 'Henry just shut up and do the thing.' I'm like, 'I don't want to do this. He wouldn't do that, but he can do that. 'With Sherlock, because I absolved myself from being that legalistic psychopath ... we could create a Sherlock that supported an Enola character"(Henry Cavill)
