What are you looking at?
Henry Cavill may just be paranoid about ever growing facial hair again.

Maybe the secret is he can’t grow facial hair and the CG was adding it to him.

DC just gave him a cover story.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

First people are upset because Hank Cavill had facial hair, now they're upset that he doesn't.

This is a promotional pic maybe 90% of the budget is giving him facial hair in the product.

I remember reading that Christopher Lambert is basically blind without his glasses and cannot wear contacts, so everyone keeps putting him in movies where he sword fights and runs through crowds.

You know what they'd do today to fix that, right? Have them mime the sword fights then add the swords in later via CGI.

It's more directly an adaptation of some (quite bad) books.

Even by the point of Highlander Endgame he was legally blind, which makes it so much more insane that they had him and Bruce Payne wildly swinging at one another. It's a miracle that neither got hurt or killed.

Oh come on, they don't do that.

What they do is make a mask of Lambert's face then have the stuntman wear that.

Why not just... use stunt doubles? Find some guy who isn't blind as hell who has luxurious silken hair and the same build, have him do the swordfights in Lambert's clothes, frame it so you can't really see the dude's face. Do a couple insert shots of Real Lambert so that it looks more convincing, even.

I feel like, given that giving Lambert a sword is a very bad idea, people would be pretty understanding if there were stuntman fights in his next movie along those lines.

Can Christopher Lambert play Zatoichi? He's perfect.
