Henry Cavill can be called the go-to guy when it comes to inhibiting characters that have been molded around the male Main Character (MC) with his strong appearance and presence on the screen. From playing characters like Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s The Witcher, Sherlock Holmes in Netflix’s Enola Holmes series, and several other prominent roles in the industry. Recently though, Henry Cavill has been making headlines with his return as Superman in DC’s Black Adam, which was further followed by an official announcement of his return as the Man Of Steel in the DCEU.

But all these adventures become a little overburdening on an individual, especially when you are someone like Henry Cavill. Fortunately, there has always been someone with Cavill all this time.

In a recent interview with Deadline, Cavill revealed that he has been grateful to his longtime girlfriend Natalie Viscuso for being there, guiding and helping him through his journey in the film industry and helping him to return as the caped crusader once more.

When it comes to Henry Cavill and his personal life, the industry has nothing much to say about it. Not being as social media active as other celebrities, Cavill enjoys his life of relative secrecy, playing video games and maintaining his health goals. But even so, the Man Of Steel star doesn’t always shy away from revealing some aspects of his life, which in this case, happens to be about his longtime girlfriend Natalie Viscuso.

“I think…as ridiculous as it may sound, or as corny as it may sound, I think it’s my mother’s approval and my father’s approval. It’s turning to your family, to those who know you best, and to who you know best as well, so you can tell when they’re lying, and they say things like ‘You did a really good job there’ and it’s sincere. It’s not just a pat on the back and ‘Well done, dear’ and that sort of thing. You felt the sincerity. Sometimes, when I saw my older brothers look at me in a certain way and they said ‘Hey, that was really impressive!’ and you see the older brother being not only surprised but impressed, by a performance, and you think ‘Ok, maybe I do have this.’ But that’s only the very beginning stages of all that, and I think lately, my partner, Natalie Viscuso, has given me so much confidence in myself because it can be tough being away from everything, and you’re always breaking your own performances down and trying to work your best, but she has been an incredible support system for me and really opened my eyes to a lot of things and opened a gateway for me to drive harder and pursue further, and I’m eternally grateful for that.”

Henry Cavill, though very successful and prominent in the industry, has been through many rough patches in these past few years, which is enough to break someone down. But with the help of his family and significant other, he has been able to overcome all these challenges and return as Superman in the DCEU. With this kind of support, it becomes heartwarming to hear such words from The Enola Holmes star.

It’s true when people say that behind every successful man, is an even more successful, supporting, and caring woman.
