Henry Cavill has said that he can't pick between his two Superman: Man of Steel roles.
The Immortals star revealed that the parts of Superman and his alter ego Clark Kent each present their own unique challenges, adding that he doesn't prefer one over the other.
"Both are difficult and easy to play in their respective ways," Cavill told the Los Angeles Times. "Essentially, yes, one is a disguise but the one that's not a disguise is so unreal that brings difficulties of its own with it."
He continued: "Overall, there's no one that's easier or less easy than the other. It is a lot of fun having two characters in one role which are so intertwined with each other.
"It's the same person, definitely, but it's the presentation. And that is fun," Cavill concluded.
The former Tudors star previously admitted that he started jumping up and down after learning that he had landed the role of the superhero in Superman: Man of Steel.
Cavill said last month that he is grateful at how fans have embraced him in the role of Superman.
Superman: Man of Steel is due for release on June 14, 2013 in the US. A UK release date is yet to be announced.
