Henry Cavill, who stars in the upcoming Tarsem Singh mythology movie The Immortals, appears on the cover of next month's Men's Health magazine, and offers up what I guess you could call their version of an "it gets better" story, revealing that he was tauned when he was young by kids who called him "Fat Cavill":
Cavill, who plays Superman in upcoming movie Man Of Steel, tells Men's Health magazine: 'It's definitely a s****y nickname, but kids are kids – kids are cruel. Whatever – I was fat.'
