Referring to the blockbuster Twilight movie series that once made a storm, everyone must remember actor Robert Pattinson as the charming and mysterious vampire Edward. This is also the role that pushed Robert Pattinson to the fame of an A-list Hollywood star, making everyone love him. However, this male actor also had to “fight” quite fiercely for this role of Edward. There is another famous male god in Hollywood who is a bright candidate for this position, even author Stephenie Meyer of the Twilight series also strongly supports it: Henry Cavill .
Before Twilight was filmed, Henry Cavill was a more prominent name than Robert Pattinson. At that time, Robert Pattinson only had one breakthrough role as Cedric in the blockbuster Harry Potter series – but only appeared very rarely. On the contrary, Henry Cavill has participated in quite a few big film projects, typically Red Riding Hood or the 18+ historical series The Tudors .

Perhaps thanks to Henry Cavill’s level of sexy and seductive charm at that time, author Stephenie Meyer really wanted this actor to play the role of Edward. She was also extremely open and frank about her decision. Unfortunately, author Stephenie Meyer has no decision-making authority over the film. The Twilight crew believes that Henry Cavill is “too old” for the role of Edward.
Disgruntled by this attitude of the crew, author Meyer once wrote: “The only actor I think can become Edward Cullen is Henry Cavill. The most disappointing thing for me is losing my perfect Edward. “
At that time, Henry Cavill was 24 years old – quite old compared to his role as a high school student. On the contrary, Robert Pattinson is only 21 years old and becomes a more reasonable choice for the crew. However, when filming, the audience also thought that Edward’s appearance did not look like a high school student at all.
Henry Cavill no longer has the chance to become Edward Cullen, but this male god’s career is still very brilliant and his reputation can even “surpass” Robert Pattinson. He participated in a series of major projects, typically playing the role of Superman in the DC universe or the movie The Man from UNCLE and the popular series The Witcher . Even the actor’s series The Tudors in the past made him known as the “king of hot scenes” because of a series of daring and sexual encounters with his co-stars in front of the camera.

After Twilight , Robert Pattinson also had a hard time proving his acting ability. Movies like The Lighthouse or Tenet have helped him assert his strength and become a talented actor in Hollywood.
Robert Pattinson is now making audiences look forward to his role as Batman
A long time after Henry Cavill became Superman, Robert Pattinson also “closed” on the role of Batman in DC’s upcoming blockbuster. Unfortunately, it seems that this is a separate project and these two male gods will not have the opportunity to “meet” each other in the same work.
