“Man of Steel” star Henry Cavill is expecting his first child with girlfriend Natalie Viscuso.
The “Justice League” star spoke to Access Hollywood at the New York City premiere of “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” and shared the happy news.
“I’m very excited about it. Natalie and I are both very excited about it. I’m sure you’ll see much more of that,” he told a mediaperson when asked about becoming a dad.
Henry and Natalie have been dating for more than two years. They recently attended the London premiere of the actor’s movie “Argylle”. They went Instagram official in April 2021 when they shared a photo of themselves playing chess together to their profiles.
“This is me looking quietly confident shortly before my beautiful and brilliant love Natalie, destroys me at chess,” Cavill wrote in a caption. In her post, Natalie wrote, “Teaching my dear Henry how to play some chess…or…maybe he let me win?”
In another interview with Entertainment Tonight, Cavill said he is “enjoying this stage” of his life as he nears his 41st birthday.
“I’m enjoying this stage of my life very much so,” he said. “I’m turning 41 in May and I have a real sense of approaching everything with more — more direction now.”
“One of the advantages of getting older is that you have the beauty of hindsight,” he added. “And now with my career especially, I’ve got a lot of direction. I’ve got my hands on the steering wheel a lot more.”
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is directed by Guy Ritchie. The movie is a fictional retelling of Operation Postmaster, a 1941-42 raid on German and Italian ships off the coast of West Africa, carried out by a commando unit formed by British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and the Special Operations Executive, a group of military officials including author Ian Fleming.
Based on a novel by Damien Lewis and declassified files from the British War Department, the film sees Major Gus March-Phillipps, played by Henry Cavill, leading his team of misfits to fight the Nazis with what are deemed “ungentlemanly” war tactics.
