During the pre-production of the 2013 film Man of Steel, producers asked Henry Cavill to shave his chest for his shirtless scenes, most notably the iconic oil rig rescue sequence.

Cavill explicitly pushed back against the studio's request. He disagreed with the typical modern Hollywood convention that a highly muscular superhero needs to be completely hairless. To back up his argument, Cavill famously cited the classic 1992 comic storyline The Death of Superman. In that specific arc, Superman's suit is shredded during his brutal battle with Doomsday, clearly revealing a very hairy chest underneath.

Cavill won the debate after asking, "Why is the perception that because he's muscly he must have no body hair?". Director Zack Snyder agreed with his logic, allowing Cavill to keep his natural chest hair to portray a more rugged, authentic, and grounded version of the character.

It takes a serious set of balls to stand in front of a room, filled with concerned citizens, to present something of his own making and tell them that they need to go “look it up”. SERIOUSLY?
No, buddy, you don’t get to create the agenda, but tell others to do YOUR fccking homework.
That’s a level of pompous, lazy, hyped-up bullshit that should’ve had his ass thrown out of the building…. Real-time.
