Henry Cavill left perplexed after discovering his own death on the internet

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

First and foremost, we're happy to report that the Man of Steel himself, Henry Cavill, is alive and well.

The story goes that after googling his own name, Cavill, who stars as Superman in DC Entertainment's DCEU, discovered that he had died just two days earlier. Understandably confused by the misinformation which had been posted to his Wikipedia page, Cavill quickly shared a photo of himself looking rather put-out, but alive-and well nonetheless.

 

When you learn that you died 2 days ago….

Oh Wikipedia, you've done it again, haven't you? I suppose that's what we get for building a worldwide dictionary complete with an open source format. Thankfully, Cavill has been taking the news in stride. After all, this is not the first time the MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – FALLOUT star has been the subject to internet ridicule – CGI mustache removal anyone? That Sad Affleck video? Dude's got a thick skin for sure.

If you're in the mood to see Cavill as a member among the living, you can pick up JUSTICE LEAGUE on Blu-Ray and DVD on March 13th. Or, you can catch him – and his glorious mustache – when MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – FALLOUT opens in theaters on July 27th.
