The TV show Becoming Elizabeth likes my tweet, as I compare it to the legendary showtime show: The Tudors!

I'm curious

[thepeakygirl]

I was obsessed with this show as a child/teen

[memendoemori]

The absolute funniest part of Showtime's The Tudors is that they have written Thomas Cromwell in a way that makes him come off as actual Satan leading England into the Protestant era. They make him conniving and threatening and an unrepetant sociopath but he's played by James Frain who, in every shot, looks like he's going to burst into tears if someone says one unkind thing to him

The Superman Within: The Rise Of Henry Cavill

Henry Cavill is a British actor who has become a household name in Hollywood. He is known for his roles in major blockbuster movies such as "Man of Steel," "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," and "Justice League." Cavill has also made a name for himself in the television industry, starring in the popular series "The Tudors" and "The Witcher." In this article, we will take a closer look at the life and career of Henry Cavill, exploring how he became one of the most sought-after actors in the world.

Early Life And Education

Henry William Dalgliesh Cavill was born on May 5, 1983, in Saint Helier, Jersey, a small island in the English Channel. He is the fourth of five boys in his family. Cavill's father, Colin Cavill, was a stockbroker, and his mother, Marianne Cavill, was a secretary in a bank. Henry's parents divorced when he was young, and he was raised by his mother.

Cavill attended Stowe School, a prestigious boarding school in Buckinghamshire, England. During his time there, he discovered his love for acting and began taking drama classes. He also participated in school plays and musicals, honing his skills as a performer. After graduating from Stowe, Cavill studied at the University of Bristol, where he pursued a degree in Classical Studies.

Early Career

Cavill's acting career began in the early 2000s, when he landed small roles in television shows such as "The Inspector Lynley Mysteries" and "Midsomer Murders." He also appeared in the films "Laguna" and "The Count of Monte Cristo" in minor roles. However, it wasn't until 2007 that Cavill's big break came.

In 2007, Cavill was cast as Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk, in the Showtime series "The Tudors." The show, which chronicled the life and reign of King Henry VIII, was a critical and commercial success, running for four seasons. Cavill's performance as Brandon was praised by critics, and it helped him gain recognition as an actor.

Rise To Fame

Despite his success on "The Tudors," Cavill's big break in Hollywood didn't come until 2011, when he was cast as the titular character in "Man of Steel." The film, which was directed by Zack Snyder, was a reboot of the Superman franchise, and it marked Cavill's first major role in a blockbuster movie.

Cavill's performance as Superman was widely praised by critics, with many calling him the best actor to ever play the iconic superhero. His portrayal of Superman was praised for its depth and nuance, as Cavill brought a sense of humanity and vulnerability to the character that had not been seen before.

Following the success of "Man of Steel," Cavill reprised his role as Superman in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and "Justice League." He also starred in the spy thriller "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." and the action movie "Mission: Impossible – Fallout."

In recent years, Cavill has also made a name for himself on television, starring in the hit Netflix series "The Witcher." The show, which is based on a series of novels by Andrzej Sapkowski, has been a massive success, with Cavill's performance as the monster hunter Geralt of Rivia being praised by fans and critics alike.

Personal Life

Despite his fame, Cavill has managed to keep his personal life relatively private. He has been linked to a number of high-profile women over the years, including actress Kaley Cuoco.

I know we were mentioning that the BBC would be a better channel to air a show like Becoming Elizabeth but they would have had to have toned down the swearing/violence/sex but then i remembered the BBC was the channel that first aired The Tudors in the UK 😳

[fideidefenswhore]

The difficulty is that while The Tudors still downplays Henry's intellect and talent, it regularly displays his cruelty, not only on climactic occasions like the executions of Fisher, More, Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard or the burning of heretics, but also as a routine aspect of his day-to-day relationships with others, in his profoundly abusive, exploitative, and misogynist[ic] relationships with his wives and mistresses, and in his unmitigated narcissism. If possible, the series makes Meyers' Henry [...] worse than the real king.

Has anyone else read The Saddest Princess? It’s a tiktok author and it’s about Mary I…. It is so bad. I feel bad because the author on tiktok was nice.
