Sometimes children cannot distinguish between characters in movies and real life and believe that things on screen are real. That’s a funny story that happened to 7-year-old Thomas when he claimed Superman was a member of his family.

The story begins when  Thomas loudly declares in class that Superman is his uncle. While the other children mocked Thomas, the teacher told him that Superman did not exist in this world. However, this boy still insisted on accepting Superman as his uncle and was invited to the principal’s office for punishment. But even when Thomas’s mother came to solve the problem, she still said that her son was not lying. 

Finally, the mother decided to play the last card: Call the boy’s uncle. And the character who appeared was indeed… Superman.

Henry Cavill and his nephew Little Thomas

In fact, little Thomas spoke the truth and did not exaggerate at all. Thomas’s uncle  is Henry Cavill, the actor who plays Superman in the DC cinematic universe. Basically, the boy didn’t lie at all, but was also very honest. .

This story was told by Henry Cavill himself in a television interview. Cavill said that this story was actually told a few years ago, but now this image quickly became “hot” on social networks because of the innocence and honesty of the boy Thomas.
