Henry Cavill - a British actor, best known for the role of Geralt from the series "Witcher»From Netflix and Superman from the so -called" Expanded DC Universe ". The fact that it is Kavill will play a superhero from Krypton, announced in January 2011, and the first film with his participation, ""A man of steel", Came out in the summer of 2013.
The earliest mention of the story of the uncle-Sumen we discovered In Argentinean magazine Viva for May 2013 - the issue was dedicated to the actor and the upcoming film about the superhero with him in the title role.
“I will tell you one very funny story,” said a tall handsome young man sitting in the Mirage Hotel in Beverly Hills with anticipation. - I have two nephews, six and four years old. The elder is known at school by constantly telling fictional stories and lies. At one of the lessons, the teacher asked students to tell about her family and what they are doing. Then the boy says: "My uncle is Superman." The teacher looked tiredly at him: "Do not lie." But he was very confident in his words and continued to insist on his own. When my mother came for him, the teacher decided to talk to her and said: "He is lying again. I don’t know where he got such a habit. Now he says that his uncle is Superman." And mom replies: "Actually this is true."
On the eve of the world premiere of Blockbuster in June of the same year, Cavill Came On the Jay Leno show. There is an actor toldthat because of the video game he missed the call from the director, who wanted to inform Henry that he had received the role of Superman. Then Cavill said that he could not get through either to his parents or to the brothers to inform the joyful news. Then the conversation came to the nephews and their reaction to the role.
Yes, I have two nephews. And, by the way, my nephew Thomas was such a great impression that one day he ran to school ... By the way, keep in mind: Thomas is far that he often tells stories and simply invents all sorts of things in front of the teacher ... he is seven years old. So, he goes to school in Superman's costume, he glows all, because Uncle Henry is Superman. And the teacher asks: “Thomas, why are you so dressed? You should not put it on school. ” And he replies: "Because my uncle is Superman." In an ordinary tone, he said so. And she says: “Yeah, good” - and takes him aside, he stuck into trouble. She is waiting for his mother after school, he looks gloomy and all that. "Oh no. What did he do this time? Again lying? " And they say to mom: “Listen, yes, he said that his uncle is Superman. For the sake of God, this is already too much. " And my brother’s wife is like this: “Oh ... actually it seems like the truth.”
Approximately the same story of Cavill Repeated In July 2018, the show Kelly Rips and Ryan Sikrest. The presenter asked the actor if his niece and nephews rejoiced that their uncle is Superman.
Of course yes! And there is a good story about my nephew Thomas. Once he went to school, and that day it was necessary to tell about his family. And the rest of the children at school, he said that his uncle is Superman. Of course, the teacher said: “Thomas, you can’t lie at school. It’s not accepted here. I appreciate good fairy tales, but it’s better not to get carried away with them. ” And Thomas bent his line and continued: “No, no, no, my uncle is true Superman. I swear honestly! " In general, she got angry with him, he was stuck into trouble. And when my brother’s wife took him from school, the teacher withdrew her aside and said: “Listen, we do not encourage our children to tell a lie in school. And I recommend that you do the same. ” And of course, she replied: "And what exactly?" Knowing that Thomas really tells the fables, she strained and thought: “Oh, no! Again? Only not that! " They answered her: "Hmm, he said that his uncle is Superman." And she is: "I do not want to upset you, but it's all true."

So, despite the fact that the three versions set forth by the actor himself have small differences, he did not say that he had taken or took his nephew from the school. Cavill did not mention the fact that Thomas’s parents called to school or that the child’s mother asked him to come to the lesson or spend a class hour. Also in the story of the actor, the children did not complain about the boy to the teacher. Moreover, according to open data, the story told did not occur in 2018 and not in 2014, but between the January 2011 and May 2013. Since it was about the impressions of the family from receiving Kavill role, most likely it was in 2011.
As for the viral photograph, in which Cavill allegedly leads Thomas to school, this description of the picture also does not correspond to reality. According to the opposite search by the images, this photo of the actor first appeared on the network only in September 2013-a few months after Henry told the story of his uncle-Sumender. If you believe fan resources, then paparazzi Shooted Kavill on walk With his brother and his family on September 7 in London. There are several other photos where Kavill's brother, his daughter -in -law and the second nephew are visible.
Apparently, someone took the real story as a basis of fiction, more than once told by Kavill, as well as a scene from the film about another hero of the DC comics-Shazam. In this picture, one of the superhero's friends promised classmates that he would come to his school, but they did not believe him. "Yeah, and then Superman will drag the dessert, right?" - one of the hooligans joked. However, at the end of the film, both Shazam and Superman really came to the school dining room.
