Henry Cavill apologizes for #MeToo comments

Henry Cavill in "Immortals"

Henry Cavill Actor issued a statement to various publications to explain his controversial opinions, where he stated that he'd consider avoiding women because of the #MeToo climate.

The "Justice League" star originally told GQ, "Stuff has to change, absolutely, in terms of men 's behavior, [but] it is important to also retain the good things … there' s something wonderful about a a traditional woman … I think a woman should be wooed and chased, but maybe I'm old-fashioned for thinking that. "

It would be" very difficult "to do that if there were" certain rules in place, "Cavill told the magazine, adding," It's like … "I do not want to go up and talk to her, because I'm going to be called a rapist. So you're, like, 'Forget it, I'm going to call an ex-girlfriend instead, and then just go back to a relationship, which never really worked.' But it's way safer than casting me into the fires of hell I'm someone in the public eye, and if I know someone who knows what's going to happen? "

In the new statement, Cavill said:" Having seen the reaction to an article in particular about my feelings on dating and the #MeToo movement, I just want to apologize for any confusion … that this may have created. Insensitivity was absolutely not my intention … I would like to make it clear that I do not think it's going to happen. "

But this part of the" Man of Steel "actor's message baffled some commentators, who thought it was not quite fit with the apology:" This experience has taught me a lesson in the context and nuance of editorial liberties. I look forward to clarifying my position in the future towards a subject that is so vitally important and in which I wholeheartedly support. "- OLIVER PULUMBARIT
