Henry Cavill Embraces His Inner Nerd with League of Legends
Henry Cavill, known for his superhero physique and rugged good looks, is also a self-proclaimed nerd. From his love for The Witcher series to his passion for PC builds and collecting Warhammer 40,000 minis, Cavill’s nerdiness is no secret. Now, he has added League of Legends and its hit show, Arcane, to his list of nerdy interests.
In a recent interview with Ali Plumb of BBC Radio 1, Cavill expressed his admiration for the Netflix animated series, which follows the story of Vi and Jinx in the world of Piltover and Zaun. It all started when Plumb suggested that Cavill should give Arcane a try, a suggestion that was supported by Cavill’s girlfriend. Intrigued, Cavill immediately went home and shared the idea with his girlfriend, who had heard positive things about the show.
The rest is a familiar story for anyone who has ever binge-watched a series. Cavill and his girlfriend kept watching Arcane, even when it was time to sleep. Their shared enthusiasm for the show deepened their partnership.
While it’s unclear if Cavill’s love for the show will lead him to try playing League of Legends, it wouldn’t be surprising considering his affinity for intricate games and rich lore. In fact, he even mentions that his special subject on the quiz show Mastermind would be Warhammer 40,000.
We admire Cavill’s commitment to embracing his nerdy side and hope to see him indulge in even nerdier ventures in the future. Who knows, maybe we’ll even witness Superman in the world of League of Legends.
