Talking about his personal life with Elle, Cavill talked about how he doesn’t have a celebrity crush, who his girlfriend is really interested in, and how he gets objectified every opportunity that people get. Revealing how his character in The Tudors had become morose and depressed, Cavill snapped at the producer for asking him to be shirtless since it did not make any sense!
“Are you kidding me? I had to start telling the producers, “Stop making me take my clothes off.” One year they said, “For the publicity shot, we’re going to have you shirtless holding a horse.” I said, “Why the f*ck am I shirtless? My character has changed. He’s a morose, depressed dude.” They’re like, “Yeah…but people love it.”
The interviewer further asked Cavill if he felt objectified by the requests and the actor said that he was actually flattered.

“Every single girlfriend has asked. I say I don’t have a list and they go, “Okay, well I’ve got this person….” And I go, “Stop right there. I don’t need to know who you really want to have s*x with. I’m probably going to work with that person.” I just explained this to my girlfriend. She said, “That’s a fair point.”
Since this is an old interview, Cavill has been happily enjoying his dating life for the past year while dating his girlfriend Natalie Viscuso. People hoped that Cavill could finally find his partner and would continue to show a little skin throughout his movies and series over the years.
