But after wrapping filming on his highly-anticipated new film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Henry Cavill was keen to try out a daring new look.
The 32-year-old showed off a new shaved head as he stepped out in London this week.

New look: Henry Cavill has shown off his new shaved head after cutting his longer locks off following wrapping filming on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
The handsome actor looked incredibly dapper in a purple turtleneck, cashmere coat and black jeans as she strolled through London.
His suave ensemble was somewhat at odds with his uber-macho shorn head, which was a far cry from his usually slicked-back jet black locks.
The new style comes after he completed shooting his latest outing as the Man Of Steel in the new DC Comics big screen extravaganza.
The movie will see Clark Kent’s alter-ego Superman comes up against fellow crime-fighting vigilante, Batman.

The pair are at odds about what sort of hero the world needs, while the movie will feature an appearance from female superhero, Wonder Woman, played by Gal Gadot.
The film, due out on March 25, documents the founding of the Justice League, which also includes Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ray Fisher as the half-mechanical Cyborg, and Ezra Miller as the speedy Flash.
The film, directed by Zack Snyder, also stars Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishbourne as Perry White and Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Thomas Wayne.

Big year ahead: The actor is gearing up to promote his new film, in which Superman faces off against Batman, played by Ben Affleck
‘There’s plenty of time for individual Superman sequels.
‘He’s a tough character to tell. People like the darker vigilante. I think it speaks to the human psyche more easily rather than the god-like being that we can’t really understand.
‘Once we have a more expansive universe we can delve more into the character of Superman and hopefully tell more stories.’
