As a fellow Brit (and Chiefs fan), his initial comparison to Rugby before realising it was "human chess" was identical for me!
I'm a Kiwi, and had the same realisation in the mid 90'when I started watching. And the human chessboard analogy has been how I've always described it to colleagues here.
It’s chess with overgrown, steroidal monsters. As it should be .
Kansas farm boy here. can confirm we are chiefs fans.
Kansas and Missouri 🤝 Chiefs
And we will have our vengeance, in this life or the next

@@RKatoutGood luck with that..

Good for you to actually admit being from Kansas.😁
Even more reason to love Henry! I'm born and raised in KCMO! GO CHIEFS!!!
Same ❤🎉
And he's a PC nerd. What a dude. 😎
KCK myself. But it’s all the same when you’re a Chiefs fan. All the way back to the Marv Levy years. To think, I was pissed when he took Buffalo to four straight Super Bowls🤣🤣🤣
All of a sudden, I'm thinking about renewing my Netflix subscription for Witcher Season 4, and I'm getting over the fact that he's no longer Superman 🤨
I knew I was a fan of this handsome bastard for a reason! Go Chiefs!
Lol❤❤
He also wears a Royals tee shirt in Man of Steel.
Superman lands in KS in the comics in smallville
Becoming a Chiefs fan to get into character to play Superman is probably the coolest thing I’ve ever heard lol
Just hearing on TV “…and the home, of the, CHIIIIEEEEFFFFSSSSS” gives me chills. I love being born and raised in this city and this team (also pre Mahomes, even when they went 2-14…)
Well he was post the 2-14 season. I on the other hand have been a fan since the season of the infamous no punt game in 2003 against Payton Manning.
Superman ❤
& The Chiefs!!
Since 93 chief fan from argentina
Oof that’s a tough break… having to watch Matt cassel play football 😂
The right half of Kansas is pretty die hard Chiefs/Royals territory. It doesn't start to change until you start getting close to Colorado.
He's as "every man" as you will find in Hollywood these days. He likes to game, build computers, and is a Chiefs fan. What's not to like about this guy?
He’s a chiefs fan. That doesn’t count?
As a Black Adam fan , I might have to go the light side as a chiefs mega fan
"It's human chess"....love that take from Superman.
Just when I thought I couldn't like Henry Cavill anymore
Man of Steel: "I grew up in Kansas, General. I'm about as American as it gets!"🦸
Kansas and Kansas City are two different places, just for the record
@@DwainWilsonJrWell Kansas City does spill over into Kansas even if most of the city is in Missouri. Popularity goes very far into Kansas. I know the Royals at least have programs with both Mizzu and the University of Kansas.
@@DwainWilsonJr No, it isn't. Your record is broken. There is a Kansas City KS. Do some research.
@@DwainWilsonJrKansas city part of it is in Kansas, but like they said the chiefs (and really any nfl team) is not for just one particular state
Love it! We’ll take all the Chiefs fans!
Kansas, Superman, Chiefs! Let's go!
I love his reasoning. Such a Superman if I’ve ever seen one. Shame on DC.
Warner brothers***
Henry's bro-ing down with Chiefs, It would've been awesome if somehow Snyder did a Superman Arrowhead fly by during a Chiefs game in Man of Steel
Real life chess is how I explain Football to people over here in the UK
I was at the game. The Niners fans were overly confident. Most of the niner fans sitting around me pretty much thought the game was over at halftime. It's like they forgot Chiefs have some of the most amazing come from behind wins in NFL history....lol. When Mahomes and the Chiefs walked on the field for the game winning drive in overtime, you could tell they knew it was over.
I would've paid BIG bucks to be there, so I could laugh right in their faces 😂😂😂
FOREVER MY SUPERMAN
You gotta ask that dude about Warhammer!
Let’s go!! Now we got Superman on our side!!! Oh it’s a 3 Peat for sure baby!!!!
My Superman
My Superman 🥰
Bro I'm dying to read the Superman movie that Henry and Mission Impossible director Chris Mcquarrie pitched to WB, who sadly turned them both down. Such a shame.
However, insiders say he may have been asking for way too much money and major creative control, that an A level star can demand. However Cavill isn't an A level star (probably at least B - C level) and that to some degree I can understand WB being a little hesitant to bring him back due to his demands that maybe he hadn't quiet earned, but at the same time WB was also being extremely difficult as well.
It's damn shame he never got a sequel
Lifelong KC fan here. Freaking awesome! Even Superman is a Chiefs fan.
Man I can't catch a break in Broncos country, everything's Chiefs lol. Love Cavill though and glad he got to watch a team with competent management.
You and Perna...
Human chess is a good description.
Huge Bears fan here, but i must say Henry Cavil is awesome, love that he supports the Chiefs!
Cavill is the last Moviestar. Peoples champ
Him and Tom Cruise
I knew I liked this guy 😂
I became a Chiefs fan way back in 1990 because of my dad being from KC. Until Mahomes it was very difficult. Now it’s so awesome. Worth the wait.
priest holmes? Tony Gonzales? Okoye? dante Hall? mustve been some fun years here and there??
Not really.
@@kcnoisewhat do you mean there were no fun times? The Chiefs beat the Raiders on several occasions between 1990 & 2018
Okay…didn’t know…I’m officially a Henry Superman fan for life.
This makes such sense for Henry. He’s such a damn nerd that he went “well I love Superman, who would Superman support?” And stuck with it. This guy is a treasure
Going miss him in the Witcher only reason I watched the Netflix show can’t wait for his nexts projects though
I met Henry in person in California like 7 years back at 1am outside of a bar where I was working the door and he was leaving dinner with Gina Carano. We chatted for about a minute. He was very nice and he has a great sense of humor.
Henry is the man
Not fair that rich people get invited to the Super Bowl, although Henry Cavill should be invited EVERYWHERE.🥰🥰🥰🥰
Yeah, that’s just life though. Even if everything was equal, people would still be smarter, more attractive, more charismatic etc etc.. I think there’s always gonna be haves & have nots, even in nature, and it’ll never be particularly fair.
If you’re religious, you can hope that will all be fixed in heaven, but I believe I remember hearing that god has his favorite angels, so it’ll probably suck there as well🤣
The richer you are, the more things you get for free. That’s just how it works.
Well unfortunately that’s not how it works. Everyone doesn’t do anything out of their own free will. Everyone does something out of their own interests. Celebrities and rich can get away with free events because they bring a value you unfortunately don’t. They are walking ad. For example, even if Nike doesn’t have a deal with a celebrity a celebrity wearing their appeal drives up their value. It’s a mutual exchange they give them a free ticket to the game and in exchange they drive up the value of their brand in this case Apple no form of transaction was needed.
3peat incoming ❤
He loves the Adeptus Custodes.
Would make a great james bond
SUPERMANS A CHIEFS FAN?!?!?!?!
I can die happy now
Get this man back on the screen as SOME kind of superhero PLEASE 🙏... if not Superman, then maybe Omni-man at least!!!
Missed the opportunity as a Gloucester and Chiefs fan to ask what he thinks of Louis Rees-Zammit going to NFL.
yep. good question
WISE MAN, Henry….. The Kingdom is happy you’re with us. The “Pre-Mahomes” helps with the current landscape… but a KC fan is a KC fan!!
From our “Kingdom,” to yours.
“United.” ;)
CHEERS! GO CHIEFS
That playoff game was another classic Pre-Mahomes Chiefs game. They somehow lost despite not allowing the Steelers to score a single touchdown. Truly remarkable stuff.
What a cool story I love it! Very unexpected
Becoming a fan in 2016 is still fair weather lol, 1997 for me, tell me those weren't some rough years!
i was a raiders fan and a royals fan because of bo jackson. bo retired and marcus allen went to the chiefs. only made sense to be a chiefs fan and they got montana that same year. been a die hard ever sense. cried as a kid during those playoff losses to the oilers and i think the chargers
I became a Chiefs fan because of an NES game Tecmo Super Bowl despite growing up in PA. We had some good teams in the 90s but couldn’t do it in the playoffs. I’m happy they finally got there.
"Supporting" a team is the most British sounding thing in the world lol
What ?
😂😂 facts
85% of Kansans are Chiefs fans. There's a small contingent of lunatics in the far West portion of the State that has chosen to root for the Broncos. Very happy to have the support of Mr. Cavill (the best Superman/Clark Kent.)
I noticed alot of Brits are fans of the chiefs
Bro I'm dying to read the Superman movie that Henry and Mission Impossible director Chris Mcquarrie pitched to WB, who sadly turned them both down. Such a shame.

Gooo chiefsssssss welcome to chiefsssssssss kingdommmmmmmmmmmmmmm m🎉🎉🎉
Human Chess! Clark would root for the Chiefs! And he was heartbroken with us when the Steelers beat us the last time in the playoffs. Wow. So amazing we can share experiences like this.
He dodged a bullet with Netflix lmao.. poor Witcher franchise though!
another reason to like Henry…
I was at that game...sucked cuz the Chiefs lost but I feel better now that Superman was there!! Up Up and away from there!!!
The BEST team Yes!
I'm British and have been a Hawks superfan since I was a kid. Any day y day in London you'll see of fans of every team proudly wearing their colours . Go Hawks
It was the divisional round and the Chiefs were done in by a Carl Cheffers holding call on the 2-point conversion (after it was successful).
Both superman and the witcher are chiefs fans… just sayin
If you're in Kansas and you want to have a team in the NFL, who's it going to be? I'm in Kansas, but I'm closer to Denver than I am to KC by a couple hours. KC was on TV almost every week, and I didn't want to be on the Broncos bandwagon, so... that meant Chiefs fandom for me!
was KC being on tv because they knew People of Kansas lean more to the Chiefs or is it divided across the middle? just curious as a non american
Who would Clark be a fan of. That was his reasoning how can you not love Henry! I love Pat Mahomes even tho I’m a Steelers fan because he’s from Texas like me and it’s great that a Texas boy is the best in the game.
Not a chiefs fan but I love this guy
Yep. He’s the best superhero of all time now. Hopefully, the rumors of him playing Captain Britain is true need him in the MCU 🔥
The reason I picked the Chiefs to win this past SB was because of Mahomes. He doesn't lose in the SB (except to the GOAT, Brady, and he's retired now).
For the emperor!
Good backstory on why he chose KC. Also KS boy and can confirm been one all my life.
Honestly I can’t call him a bandwagon. Clark Kent was raised in Kansas so it’s kinda fitting for Brit or Christopher Reeves (RIP) to be a Chief’s fan, in an ironic sort of fashion.
If the Chiefs move, I wonder if the will reinforce the stadium like they did at Arrowhead? That stadium literally bounces when that place gets rockin'!
It tracks…Superman loves the Chiefs!❤️🙏🏼🏈🏟️🏆🏆🏆🏆CHIEFS KINGDOM FOREVER🏆🏆🏆🏆🏟️🏈❤️🙏🏼
Funny fact there is a KC in Kansas. It is a smaller town across the Missouri River from the big city KC.
I have met people who are American who think Kansas City is only in Kansas. KC Missouri was a town before Kansas was even a state.
Henry Cavell has got to hit the wardrum in Arrowhead or lead a tomahawk chop.
Oh, it'll break the noise level again.
The fact he said Pre-Mahomes 😂😂😂 if this dude was there in the 2-14 year then we accept you into the kingdom good sir 😊
No no no no incorrect it was Alex smith tossing a game-tying 2 points to the long maligned Demetrius football and it not counting and kelce flipping out lol
Lol this is basically the same interview they did before.
Only touchdown they had in the Tampa SB was when their plane landed.
He said he was a Chiefs fan before Mahomes, so he must've been referring to the Chiefs Steelers playoff game when they beat us with only field goals. Alex Smith was the QB.
I'm a jags fan is there a superhero from Jacksonville Florida
Henry Cavill is the best Superman..yea I said it
Short summary: he jumped on the bandwagon like all the other groupies
Henry my guy. Please don't give people more reason's to hate on superman. I feel that this would be lore accurate though ..lol
Most fitting Superman is a Chiefs fan he landed in KS
I guess the Chiefs are the celebrity team
As a Brit who’s a Raider I feel qualified enough to call BS Fat-Kav, BS dear boy 😂
Even if he’s a post-Mahomes fan, there’s nothing wrong with that as long as he stays on when they inevitably suck again. If I were to introduce friends to the NFL, I’ll tell them to stay off the panthers, Cardinals, Broncos and Raiders too
Well he picked the right team so im not complaining
Kansas Farm Boy
HC is a Chiefs, Witcher, Warhammer, LOTR fan … same 😢
Youve found your people😊
He's so handsome. Go CHIEFS.
And so did Micah Richards. Might as well get him on the show and talk about Kate.
Your from Kansas after all farm boy
First game for me was Chiefs Packers in '88, they both sucked. 15k people there max, won me over!
Are you gunna ask him again the next time he is on the same question.
Im from England too and been a KC fan since early 90's (my brother married a KC lady and forced me to give up the raiders as he wouldn't be seen with me in a raiders shirt). No regrets 😜
As a lubbock boy who grew up supporting texas tech. I don't see myself as a ban wagon supporter for supporting the chiefs. All though I some might see me as one. Hahaha
At least he admits it’s a bandwagon thing.
