Why Amy Adams Didn't Like Kissing Henry Cavill

Portraying Lois Lane and Clark Kent over several films led to Amy Adams and Henry Cavill developing a close bond. Cavill also kept in incredible shape to play the "Man of Steel," and Adams would tease the actor when scenes called for him to be shirtless. "In between shots it was like, 'Put on a robe please, and make everyone feel less bad about themselves!" she told Marie Claire UK. 

In fact, Cavill's chiseled frame made Adams feel slightly insecure. "He's one of those men. I don't know why him shirtless makes me have low self-esteem but that's exactly what it did," she said on "Good Morning America" (via ABC News). The "Arrival" star tried to keep pace with her co-star's fitness but gave up after two weeks. "I was like, 'I'm never going to keep up with Henry.' But I tried," she added.

Adams' envy of Cavill's fit figure led to a particularly awkward encounter while filming "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice." Apparently, Adams lost her composure during one take. "Henry had to take his shirt off and I didn't know what to do," she said while appearing on "The Project" in 2016. "I'm just sitting there and he looks like that and I kissed his belly," Adams confessed (via the Daily Mail). Once again, the actor felt compelled to apologize to her co-star and friend. "It was the weirdest [thing] ... I was mortified," Adams said.
