This is an update from his first interview, in which he talked about the film's direction:
Cavil said he's done "plenty of comic book research" in order to gather as much information as he can "as to who this man is."
The star explained that by reading the "Superman" comics, he'll pick up on the "key characteristics" in order to get "a general idea of what he is, and then working from there."
Cavill, who revealed he'd met with Adams for a screen test, said he was "looking forward to working with" her, calling his newly announced co-star a "fantastic actress, very talented."
Cavill noted that the age difference between he and Adams (he's 27, she's 36) was nothing more than happenstance, saying that making the nine-year difference part of the story line would be for Snyder to decide. Cavill said of the age gap: "I don't think it matters at all."
