Andrea Shares Her Throwback Photo With Henry In Budapest

"Henry Cavill Superman"

Andrea met Henry as he filmed The Witcher in Budapest and today she shared her photo with him.

We really like his look... snazzy outfit!

We're still waiting for an official date for the show's premiere on Netflix. Look for the latest details as they are released.

Monday Motivation: Henry's New Post!

View this post on Instagram

Having a little flashback to my days in Budapest on The Witcher and found this photo. I like it because it shows that it doesn't take huge weights everyday to achieve results. I was doing everything I could in a busy busy schedule to try and get something in, whenever I could. During this period I learned that it's not the weight that matters, it's the workout. So if you're shy about going to the gym because there is always someone next to you using mahoosive weights, don't be. You do your weights, just make every workout count. You might end up looking better than the fella or lady next to you that's using those heavy weights. I also wanted to give a massive shout-out to Adam at Flex Gym. Adam went out of his way to help make sure I could get some training in, no matter the time of day or night, he'd open the gym so I could throw some weights (big or little!) around. Thank you my friend. I hope to see you soon! @FlexGymBudapest #YouDoYou #GymStuff

Talk about some Monday Motivation. Today Henry shared a workout photo from his days training for The Witcher in Budapest, along with some inspiring words for fans looking to firm up.

Thanks Henry!

This fall we'll all get to watch him put those muscles to work, as he fights some nasty creatures on the Netflix show. Keep checking back for the latest news on The Witcher!

Now that Season 1 of The Witcher has wrapped, Henry is headed out of Hungary (for at least a few months)... but before taking off he had one more surprise for fans of the upcoming Netflix show.

Meet Hector!

Perfect day out with Laszlo, Hector (my horse) and Pablo (Laszlo's horse) today. A great way to say goodbye to Hungary. #Friesian #Hungary

A post shared by Henry Cavill (@henrycavill) on May 31, 2019 at 9:44am PDT

In The Witcher, Geralt's horse is named Roach and we're guessing this black beauty could be him.

@katasotonyi: "With the real SUPERMAN"

Some fans also got a chance to get their pic with Henry today, as he attended a private event.
