Cool Videos: Henry Cavill takes the ALS Challenge in his Superman costume

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

With each passing day, we are getting more and more celebrities taking the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. When done correctly, these videos help spread the word and get folks to donate to ALS.org to help research a cure to the disease. We shared the best challenges to date but now we have a pretty unique one.

On the set of BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE, Superman and Lois Lane (aka Henry Cavill and Amy Adams) accepted their challenge. Both performed theirs in costume with Cavill looking exceptionally nervous about being doused with the frigid water. Both performed admirably before the crew decided that Superman could stand more than one bucket and proceeded to get him a total of six times. Needless to say, Cavill looked damn cold.

It also gives us our first look at the updated Superman suit on film. Up close, we can now tell the muscles are mostly airbrushed on the suit, but it still looks pretty impressive. Here’s hoping the next one is the Dark Knight versus Mr. Freeze (that’s what he calls his bucket).

BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE opens March 25, 2016.
