We’re weak in the knees when we look at the Man of Steel – and here’s why

THOSE EYES!

THOSE EYES!

Henry Cavill’s Superman flies into theaters June 14, and we admit we’re vulnerable to his charms! In fact, it doesn’t take more than one look from the Man of Steel star’s gorgeous gaze to render us completely helpless – and officially unaffected by rival hunks like Ryan Gosling!

 

THAT SCRUFF!

Sure, he looks dashing when he’s cleaned up for the red carpet, but that fresh-out-of-bed facial hair only supersizes Cavill’s appeal. Though we wish we could be his Lois Lane, the actor also known as Clark Kent is reportedly dating martial arts fighter-turned-actress Gina Carano.

THOSE ABS!

Hard to believe, but Cavill wasn’t always a man of steel. “I was fat,” the 30-year-old Brit, seen here showing some serious skin in 2011’s Immortals, told Details in its June/July issue. “I was Fat Cavill.”

Add this to Cavill’s list of superpowers: an adorable smile that will instantaneously melt your heart.

Besides the six-pack, the best part of Cavill’s body might just be his brain. “I’m a serious geek. I mean, I seriously want to own a unicorn when I’m older … or a Pegasus,” the former star of The Tudors told PEOPLE in April. “Yeah, Pegasus sounds better.”

 

THAT SUIT!

That “S” should stand for “Sexy” – are we right? And even Cavill is a fan of the costume. “It’s not just a suit. It’s like when someone cooks you a wonderful meal, and you can taste that there’s love put in the food,” he told ABC News. “It’s the same thing with the suit.”
