Henry Cavill, best known as Superman, is hugely popular in the gaming world. He’s famously a dedicated gamer – he even missed a call from director Zack Snyder while he was playing ‘World of Warcraft’ when he was first considered for the role of Superman!

He’s a big fan of games like ‘The Witcher’ and the ‘Warhammer 40,000’ universe, and often gets deeply involved in projects because of his love for the games that inspire them.

Okay, so I’m a huge Tobey Maguire fan, especially from his Spider-Man days, but it’s hard to ignore the stories about how he acts off-camera. Apparently, he’s known for not signing autographs or even looking at fans, which is a real bummer. I read about this crazy thing in Molly Bloom’s book where he allegedly asked her to do something really embarrassing just for a poker chip! It’s stuff like that, and other reports, that have given him this reputation for being really distant and cold. People have been talking about how he doesn’t seem to connect with his fans for years, and honestly, it’s a little disappointing.
