FROM SPLASH PAGE: Even though he's currently busy offing the heads of rebellious Englishmen as Sir Charles Brandon on "The Tudors," Henry Cavill revealed to MTV News that he was once connected to a very different -- and much less morally murky -- role in popular fiction.
Before the Bryan Singer-helmed "Superman Returns" went into production, Cavill was slated to star as the Man of Steel in "Terminator Salvation" director McG's vision of the beloved DC Comics superhero.
"I was attached to the McG 'Superman' movie," Cavill told MTV News during a press event for Woody Allen's "Whatever Works." "Then Bryan Singer came on and took the helm and he made his movie."
