Henry Cavill may strut around in an expensive, shiny looking suit in Man of Steel and Batman v Superman, but it wasn't always that way.

Back when he was first auditioning, Cavill had to go old school.

"We didn't have the suit made when Henry was auditioning, so he wore the original Christopher Reeve suit," said director Zack Snyder in an interview with Dujour.

"He put it on and when he came out of the trailer, everyone was like, 'Dang, you're Superman!'"
