Henry Cavill missed the call that he got the role of Superman because he was playing Video Games

Superman Henry Cavill isn't shy about showing off his impressive physique - having spent the majority of his screen time shirtless in action films like Immortals (2011) and Justice League (2019).

He's back in fighting form in The Witcher (2019) and isn't skimping on the skin show going the extra mile to achieve his best ever physique - better than Superman in Man of Steel (2013).

And to achieve the hyper-shredded look for Geralt that fans are familiar with from the games - he pulled a neat trick to look even more heroic and badass than usual - he stopped drinking water for 3 days! Don't try this at home kids but it clearly worked out for Cavill who perfectly recreates one of the most iconic scenes in video game history - that of a super buffed-out Geralt lounging half-naked in a bathtub.
