Henry Cavill Prepared for Shirtless 'The Witcher' Scenes in This Extreme and Dangerous Way
Getting ripped for a movie role seems to be a common prerequisite of late for practically every actor considering the action genre dominates so much in theaters and streaming. Then again, most of his movie input has been action-oriented since he last played Superman. According to People recently, Cavill went to extremes to make sure his bare-chested scenes in The Witcher looked just right. Is it just another example of crazy diets that ultimately hurt health, or was his technique safe? In the People interview, Cavill explained what he did to make his muscles look more toned in his disrobing scenes. Some fans no doubt bristled when hearing he ended up dehydrating himself for sometimes up to several days at a time.
