British actor Henry Cavill has called Detroit, Michigan home for the past six months and for the first time is talking about his experience in the Motor City. Cavill was in Gibraltar to participate in a run for a Royal Marines charity, an organization that provides assistance to past and present service members.

Taking a break from filming the Zack Snyder blockbuster Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Henry flew to Europe to participate in the Royal Marines 350th Anniversary Rock Run, climbing the massive Gibraltar staple. As always, the Brit has been spotted in several fan photos posted all over social media.

One of the actor’s many fansites, Henry Cavill News, sat down with the 31-year-old during his time in Gibraltar and asked him about his time in Detroit and what he really thinks about the place he’s called home for so many months.



“There are so many horror stories about Detroit, and Michigan, and none of them are true. I’ve really enjoyed it, actually.”

This is Henry Cavill’s second time visiting Detroit in the past few years. The actor, who played Superman/Clark Kent in Man of Steel is reprising his role, this time to face another superhero, Batman, played by Ben Affleck, who has also praised and promoted Detroit.

Tom Hiddleston’s ‘Only Lovers Left Alive’ filming moves to Germany by CHRISTINE M on JULY 24, 2012 (ON LOCATION VACATIONS)



Late last week it was reported that filming had already begun in Germany, taking place in Hamburg, North Rhine-Westphalia, and Cologne. German news outlets also say that sets were “sealed off” in part because of writer/director Jim Jarmusch’s “reclusive” nature.

Jarmusch’s vampire film is slated for release in 2013 and co-stars Tilda Swinton, Mia Wasikowska, and Anton Yelchin.. Filming is set to move to Morocco and New York City in the coming weeks.




Here’s what do know, the film is set in Detroit and Tangiers and will be filmed in Michigan, Western Germany, and Morocco this summer. Tom Hiddleston, Anton Yelchin, Mia Wasikowska, John Hurt, and Tilda Swinton will star in Only Lovers which, according to various industry sources, isn’t't expected to begin shooting until mid-July.

According to the Detroit Free Press,  the movie’s director, Jim Jarmusch, was spotted in Detroit yesterday where he has been “looking at southeast Michigan locations.” They also note that filming will only last “a week or two” in Michigan, and that the film has not yet been approved for the state’s tax incentive.
