10. Henry Cavill Smoked A Cigar For 8 Hours - Deadpool & Wolverine
The MCU loves a good cameo, and arguably no entry in the franchise has brought more to the table in this regard than Deadpool and Wolverine. Shawn Levy and Ryan Reynolds brought in plenty of unexpected faces from the past, including Chris Evans as Johnny Storm, and gave Channing Tatum his long-awaited Gambit debut, but the biggest shock may have been Henry Cavill.
During his search for a suitable Wolverine across the multiverse, Deadpool (Reynolds) came into contact with multiple variants that looked exactly like the one audiences know and love, and then one in the form of Henry Cavill.
It was an amazing moment, and there can be no denying that the former Superman actor made a fantastic Logan, but such a cameo came at a price. Though he was only on screen for a matter of seconds, it took eight hours of filming, all of which required him to smoke a cigar.
Being the professional that he is, Cavill kept said cigar in his mouth and lit throughout the entire day according to director Shawn Levy, and his reward for such dedication was being made sick to his stomach.
