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.

Superman commitments may well have been put to the side on Saturday morning, but Henry Cavill’s latest public appearance was no less heroic as worked up a sweat on The Rock Run in Gibraltar.

British star Cavill, 31, was joined by brother Nik Cavill – a Lieutenant Colonel in the Royal Marines – for the 350th anniversary run, which sees sponsored participants undertake an exhausting five kilometre uphill climb for charity.

Sporting the fundraising initiative’s luminous yellow T-shirt and black shorts, the actor, currently working on forthcoming epic Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, ran alongside his brother and 40 other competitors as part of the fundraising initiative, which generates money for the Royal Marines.

BRITAIN'S latest weapon against the Taliban has been unveiled — as Superman's brother.

Royal Marine Nick Cavill is fighting in Afghanistan while younger brother Henry is set to play the Man of Steel in an upcoming Hollywood blockbuster.

Major Cavill, 36, of 45 Commando Royal Marines, is nearing the end of a gruelling six-month tour. But his actor sibling has been bulking up to pull on the famous blue and red outfit of Clark Kent's alter ego.

One Royal Marine serving alongside Nick with X Company in Helmand said yesterday: "We heard the rumour before we deployed. Then one lad got sent a care package with a mag which had a story on his brother and his role.

"We couldn't believe it — he's the Helmand Superman. It's brilliant."

Another Marine, aged 23, added: "Every time Major Cavill gives us a briefing we ask him, 'Is it a bird or is it a plane?'

"We ask him if he has Superman on call if things don't go to plan out here."

Jersey-born Henry is best known for his role in historical drama The Tudors.

Man of Steel has a £100million budget and is directed by Dawn of the Dead's Zack Snyder. It is set to hit screens in summer 2013. Henry, 28, said of his role: "I'm training 2½ hours a day, putting on a lot of muscle, making myself look like Superman."

Major Cavill, of Arbroath, Scotland, and an MoD spokesman declined to comment. But a defence source said: "All our servicemen and women out in Afghanistan are superheroes."
