Summary
- Henry Cavill’s scene in Deadpool & Wolverine is beloved, and he committed fully to the role.
- Cavill suffered from inhaling cigar smoke for eight hours straight during the shoot.
- He never wavered, despite getting sick the following day.
Henry Cavill’s role in Deadpool & Wolverine was one of the movie’s best moments – and it was one that he apparently suffered for. Deadpool & Wolverine was stuffed full of cameos that mostly comprised actors returning from previous Marvel franchises. A handful, however, were from actors making their MCU debuts in ephemeral roles that may yet still come to fruition – and Henry Cavill’s brief scene as a cigar-chomping Wolverine was one.
In an interview with The New York Times, Shawn Levy revealed that in order to get into character, Cavill had a cigar in his mouth for the entire shoot day, which led to him getting sick the following day. The director explained:
[Henry] not only had that pumped-up muscular body but kept that cigar lit and in his mouth for the entirety of the shoot day. I remember hearing the next day that Henry was sick to his stomach because he had been inhaling cigar smoke for eight hours straight, but never once did he waver.
