Henry Cavill Celebrates Batman Day With Adorable Instagram Post

Henry Cavill might have fought against Batman on the big screen, but he isn't afraid to show his support for the DC Comics hero.

Cavill, who plays Clark Kent/Superman in the DC Extended Universe, creatively joined in on the annual Batman Day celebration earlier today. The actor posted a picture of his dog, Kal, in silhouette, making his ears resemble Batman's cowl.

Cavill is no stranger to poking fun at his pointy-eared costar (played by Ben Affleck in the DCEU), using his Instagram account to troll Batman quite a bit. But in the end, Cavill definitely has an admiration for DC's caped crusader, even geeking out when initially seeing him on the set of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

"I have trouble not geeking out," Cavill revealed last year. "I was geeking out so much - trying to be cool at the same time, obviously – that I forgot that I was dressed in the Superman costume. I was like, 'Oh, that's Batman over there, that's so awesome!' Then, of course, I looked at the monitor, and I remembered that I was the guy next to him."

Fans can see the pair onscreen next when Justice League opens in theaters on November 17, 2017.
