Henry Cavill Admits He Once Got ‘Aroused’ While Shooting A Sex Scene

TMI! Actually, we are kind of loving this story. Hunky actor Henri Cavill just told Men’s Fitness a little anecdote about a time he ‘got a bit hard’ while shooting a sex scene! You guys have to hear his full recount!

While shooting a steamy sex scene for his Showtime series The Tudors, Henry Cavill, 32, accidentally got himself into a “very embarrassing” situation. Ya, he totally got a boner! In a new interview, the British blamed the incident on a girl who was on top of him who “had spectacular breasts” — see what else he said about the less-than-ideal situation!


“It’s only happened to me once, and it was very embarrassing,” Henry said in a new interview with Men’s Fitness. “A girl had to be on top of me, she had spectacular breasts, and I hadn’t rearranged my — stuff into a harmless position. She’s basically rubbing herself all over me and, um, it got a bit hard.”

“I had to apologize profusely afterwards. It’s not great when you’re in a professional acting environment and somebody gets a boner, is it?” Henry said. “No, not acceptable.”

“You don’t think of sex scenes as showing your bum to the nation,” he went on. “It’s actually acutely uncomfortable being naked in a roomful of people. The very last thing it is sexy. The actual physicality is very uncomfortable. All you’re doing is smacking your nuts against someone, and nothing is going in.”

OMG — we can’t believe he shared THAT much! So amazing! HollywoodLifers, let us know your thoughts about Henri’s story. TMI or too funny?
