The Great Horror Franchise Tradition of Finding Future Stars
Cavill's appearance also puts Hellworld into a long and proud horror tradition.
Horror movies have been launching careers, or at least providing fascinating early appearances, for decades.
Actors who eventually became huge stars have turned up in obscure slashers, creature features, television horror and direct-to-video sequels.
Sometimes they're barely recognizable.
Sometimes they're the best part of the movie.
And occasionally you get the ultimate trivia jackpot:
Future Superman plays a guy named Mike in a Hellraiser sequel.
That's hard to beat.
It also makes you wonder what the casting director thought.
"Okay, we need a young actor."
"How about Henry Cavill?"
"Who?"
"Trust me."
