Thomas’ uncle Henry Cavill went to school to clear his nephew’s name.
One day, 7-year-old Thomas wore a Superman costume to school. This surprised his classmates and teacher. When asked why by the teacher, Thomas boldly asserted: “Because Superman is my uncle.”
Later, during a class at school with the theme “A Family Day,” Thomas continued to say that his uncle was Superman. After listening, his teacher said that we do not “lie” even though “she appreciates your story.”
She tried to explain that Superman is just a fictional character and not real. However, the boy still insisted that Superman really exists, emphasizing that his uncle is Superman and saying that he wants to be like him.
Of course, no one believed Thomas’ words. His classmates even ridiculed him for this fantasy. Afterwards, the boy was invited to the principal’s office to discuss the matter further.
Despite the teachers’ persuasion that Superman does not exist, Thomas still insisted that his uncle was this character. “Giving up” with Thomas’s stubbornness, the teacher decided to call his mother to talk and warn that children should not be encouraged to live in an excessive fantasy world.
However, in response to the teacher’s “seriousness”, Thomas’ mother just laughed and confirmed that what the boy said was true. To prove it, she called her brother-in-law Henry Cavill (the actor who plays Superman) and asked him to go to school with her nephew.
Of course, to save her nephew, Cavill took the boy’s hand to school. When Thomas went to school with his “uncle” Superman, everyone was very surprised and no one said that the boy was “bullshitting” anymore.

In fact, this incident happened a few years ago and Cavill was the one who recounted it in a 2018 show.
In the past few days, the incident has been “hot” on social media again. Some users commented that perhaps Thomas’s teacher knew that his uncle was Superman and just wanted to “find an excuse” to see Superman in real life.

Henry Cavill as Superman.
About Henry Cavill, he was born on May 5, 1983, his full name is Henry William Dalgliesh. Cavill is the fourth child in a family of five sons. His mother is a banker and his father is a stockbroker.
He started his acting career through school plays and dreamed of becoming an actor. If that dream did not come true, he would join the army.
Cavill is famous for films such as “Stardust”, “Immortals” and most notably the role of Superman Clark Kent in the film “Man of Steel” released in 2013. Cavill was the first person to play Superman and he had to work hard to speak with an American accent because he is British.
Although admired for his toned body, before becoming famous, Cavill was called “Fat Cavill” because he had a rather chubby body. However, after winning his first acting contract in The Count of Monte Cristo, Cavill was determined to lose weight and successfully lost nearly 10 kg and gradually became the muscular actor he is today.
