Henry Cavill in Enola Holmes

However, the reality is quite different. Instead of stepping out of his home, Henry Cavill prefers to spend his day in front of the screen playing video games. Whether it is Half Life or Delta Force, the actor grew up obsessing over these games leading him to use gaming as an escape from the real world. Since fans absolutely adore Henry Cavill’s obsession with gaming, they believe the actor would be perfect to play a fan-favorite Call of Duty character if the rumored live-action film ever comes to fruition – Captain Price!

The Video Game That Bonded the Cavill Brothers

Delta Force: Black Hawk Down

The family that games together, stays together. Talking about his and his brothers’ obsession with Delta Force, a tactical first-person shooter game, Henry Cavill remembered how his younger brother would constantly defeat his elder brother, despite the latter being a soldier in the Royal Marines. Needless to say, losing to Charlie Cavill again and again caused epic frustration within Niki Cavill. Later, he would use his real-life military tactics to one-up his younger brother.

Talking to GQ, Cavill stated, “He actually started using military tactics, so my youngest brother was getting slayed at every corner.”

Cavill also opened up about how he prefers staying in and playing video games instead of going out where paparazzi and fans are on every corner, waiting to snap a photo of you.

“Every time I step out my front door, I’m hyper aware. Even if I’m not looking terrible, you still realise there are people taking sneaky photos of you, because that’s what people like to do. And then they put them on the internet and you see them on Instagram and you’re like, ‘Oh, my god.’ At home, I get to sit playing games for ridiculous amounts of hours and escape there, because going outside has the opposite effect.”

Fans have always loved this side of Cavill, perhaps because it makes them feel that the superstar is just like them! Even if you take a look at his Instagram, you’ll easily be able to spot hints of the actor’s gaming obsession.

A Video Game Character That Is Perfect for Henry Cavill

Cavill’s obsession with games like Delta Force, which is quite similar to Call of Duty makes the actor perfect for a role in the latter’s live-action adaptation if it ever gets made. Of course, not everyone believes Cavill should be Captain Price due to Barry Sloane being another fan-favorite option. Which team are you on?
