Henry Cavill grew up in Jersey, Channel Islands, in the United Kingdom. Jersey is where his parents reside, but Henry makes his home in London, Los Angeles and Jersey. He has four brothers, three older and one younger. Cavill credits his siblings as the reason he has stayed so down-to-earth. "Having brothers who are bigger, hairier and been around longer than me [keeps me grounded]!"

Cavill went to boarding school at Stowe School, which is located in Buckingham, England. While attending Stowe, he appeared in several plays and musicals, including A Midsummer Night's Dream, Grease and 40 Minutes(which he also directed). "In prep school, I really learned to love the stage. When you step out from the wings and into the lights, there's this incredible rush of adrenaline and fear and anticipation; it's just something else, it really is."

It was while he was at Stowe that he was discovered by casting directors looking for a young boy to play Albert Mondego in Touchstone Pictures' The Count of Monte Cristo. "They were looking for a boarding school boy and luckily, I happened to look right for the part and I had a bit of acting experience, and that's were it all kind of kicked off."

Since then he has appeared in a several well-known movies, such as The Count of Monte Cristo, Hellraiser: Hellworld, I Capture the Castle, Tristan + Isolde, Stardust and the upcoming Joel Schumacher film, Creek. But Cavill is most well-known as Charles Brandon, the best friend to King Henry the 8th and the lover of ladies on Showtime's original series, The Tudors.

Michael Hirst, writer/producer on Showtime's The Tudors has said, "Henry is very beautiful. My daughters are all desperate to marry him. Henry Cavill is going to be a great film star. I don't think there is going to be any doubt about that."

Recently, Cavill was featured in Vanity Fair's "Hollywood’s Next-Gen Men" article and was selected as a "Rising Star" by Access Hollywood. Others have taken notice of Cavill as well: US Weekly profiled Henry as one of hottest men in its "TV's New Top 10 Dream Men" article in the April 8, 2008 issue. Interview magazine predicted Henry as "the kind of [actor] you [want] to watch grow" and for audiences "to keep an eye out for him" in the April 2008 collector's issue.

Cavill has recently been cast in the Untitled Woody Allen Project, which is set to begin filming in New York and to be released in 2009.

That's what they think.

This is my real story.

I was born in 1899. My family was one of the most wealty and influential families in the whole of England. I grew up with everything I could ever need as well as want. I had parents who loved me and took care of me. Guess you could I say I lived a perfect life. Well all of the perfection seemed to have ended there.

As World War I struck. My family took care of some people whose family members left to serve in the war. I was 17 then so I wasn't able to fight. Taking care of those families diminished my family's wealth and we ended up with almost nothing. A few years later, I myself was drafted to join the war. At the time I was engaged to someone who served as a nurse.

I got badly injured one day and was quickly brought to the hospital. There I met a beautiful nurse, Caitlin. She was a kind and friendly person who quickly became my friend. She was like the sister I never had. One night, as she told me of her family, she got a strange idea. She asked if I wanted to escape all this. I was interested at the idea and agreed to go with her. We left the hospital together the next night.

She brought me to her 'parents' Michael and Josephine. I noticed their youthful beauty and had to question it. They then sat me down and told me they were vampires. They explained to me how they turn someone into one of their own. And that was when I decided to be one just like them.

In the early 50's, I had the privilege of meeting the most wonderful girl in the world, my wife, Dasha. Oh and did I mention she is a vampire just like me? She just happened to waltz into my bookstore in Brooklyn to get out of the rain. Fate does funny things to you, doesn't it? I fell in love with her and her crazily large family. My family loved her as well. We got married a few months after we met.

And soon after, we welcomed our first daughter, Star.

It was a few years later when I decided to take up acting. I went to school for it just like all the other occupations I had tried. I never really thought I would become famous. That is very dangerous for a vampire. But I enjoy acting and will continue to act until necessary to stop.

My life may not have been perfect but it's good enough for me.

YAY! i see my name!!!!!
