Henry Cavill, the actor known for his role as Superman in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” recently opened up about his experience shooting the film with his co-star, Ben Affleck.

According to Cavill, the difference in their physiques initially intimidated him.

In an interview, Cavill revealed that he was taken aback by Affleck’s impressive physique and joked that it gave him the desire to step up his own fitness game.

“What struck me first was how funny he was, but man was he ripped as well. I’ve never been the type of guy to get involved in any sort of macho one-upmanship, but I admit I was more than a bit intimidated, and it gave me the desire to push it a bit more, because Ben is really built,” said Cavill.

The actor continued by stating that Affleck’s size and presence on set motivated him to hit the gym.

“The guy is huge. I’m puny by comparison. He is much bigger than I expected, this huge presence and vast physicality.

With his acting talent and dedication to fitness, Cavill is sure to have a successful year ahead.
