I'm glad you agree.
I wouldn't go anywhere near that soap opera The Tudors, but if I had known he was in it, I might have reconsidered.
Jeff Wrangler:
No doubt a publicity still from The Tudors, but Henry Cavill is wearing my boots.
Well, kinda sorta maybe.
Back in my SCAdian days, I had a pair of boots that looked exactly like what he's wearing. I got my boots from a place called Museum Replicas, which has, indeed, supplied weapons and other gear to movies and TV shows, so it's possible he's wearing the same style I once had. The sword looks like something from Museum Replicas, too. For that matter, so does the shirt. MR once sold a shirt with a narrow stand-up collar decorated with English blackwork.
The first thing I saw Henry Cavill in was an episode of The Inspector Lynley Mysteries (2002), which ran on PBS. HC played the Head Boy in a British "public school." He was 19 years old, and as soon as I saw him I thought, "He's going to be a star."

I heard somewhere that Heath had taken an option on the book and wanted to produce this. I can see why he'd be interested.
It does get tedious sometimes, watching people sitting in chairs, concentrating, occasionally moving small chess pieces small distances. No more tedious than watching people tending sheep on a mountain, though.

I believe they are leather pants.
