Henry Cavill Continues This Special ‘The Witcher’ Tradition Into ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’

Published 03/25/2024, 8:47 AM EDT

Over the years, audiences have seen Henry Cavill in some rather serious roles. However, his fans, co-stars, and various production crews have seen a rather different side to the star. Apart from just being an undoubtedly amazing actor, the 40-year-old also has quite the heart of gold and a slew of strange traditions that he follows after wrapping up a film or television show. Now, after keeping it alive in 2020 during his time on Netflix’s The Witcher, the actor seems to have brought the tradition back once more.

This time though, Cavill added a little bit of a special touch to it for his The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare co-stars and crew members.

Last year, Henry Cavill seemed to have his hands full with his spy thriller, Argylle. However, before the star took the world by storm with his new role, he had already completed filming for his upcoming Guy Ritchie project, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. With shooting for the film having wrapped up in April 2023, before the SAG-AFTRA strike took over Hollywood, the actor sent his co-stars and the crew of the film a token of his appreciation. It was a custom film-themed coin with a rather heartwarming card.

The coins were created by Cavill to show his love for the project and the team. Even the card expressed his sentiments as it read, “Thank you for your dedication to this job, it’s been so much fun working with all of you.” The 40-year-old also went on to call the film, “My favorite project to date,” cementing it over the fan-favorite Superman films with Zack Snyder.

While Cavill might be keeping up his longstanding tradition, he once had to issue a warning to fans who wanted to toss coins at the actor because of his hobby.

Henry Cavill may no longer be a part of The Witcher, but back when the star was just getting into the groove of playing Geralt, he thanked the team with one of his traditional coins and letters. However, once fans got wind of his tokens, they seemed to want in on the action and were debating on whether they should toss coins at the 40-year-old on social media. Luckily, the word got around to the actor who ended up issuing a firm warning to fans.

Cavill told fans that if they were to throw coins at him, they should expect it to come flying right back at them. While the response was hilarious, the star was 100% serious about what he said. Thankfully, no one wanted to call his bluff, and he avoided being pelted with coins at his public appearances.
