Although, he had already kick-started his acting by portraying major roles in Shakespeare’s plays in school.
Cavill had his fair share of obstacles in his life and as a real hero does, he overcame them to reach the very top. Now must be a time when nobody can question his physique but it was not the same all the while.
During his early school period, Cavill was harshly bullied and body-shamed for being chubby. It seemed to continue to harass him as he talked about being insecure while shooting for his movies shirtless.
He was also active as a rugby player, but had to give up on it after being injured. As a child, he studied in a boarding school, St. Michael’s private Preparatory School in Jersey, and later attended Stowe School in Buckinghamshire.
Cavill knows his languages well, being able to fluently speak French and having good conversational skills in Italian and German. He has a rather culturally strong background as his mother is of Scottish, Irish, and English ancestry and his father has English origin.
