Not long after, Cavill confirmed fans\u2019 fears on his Instagram account.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The 42-year-old actor shared a photo of his bandaged foot and ankle resting on a pillow, with some visible bruises and cuts on his shin. The carousel also included a selfie of \u00a0Cavill enjoying some well-deserved quality time with his pupper friend, Baggins.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He captioned the photos with William Ernest Henley\u2019s 1888 poem Invictus. The poem shares significant parallels with Cavill\u2019s current situation, as the poet wrote it while recovering from leg surgery following the amputation of his leg due to tubercular arthritis complications. The actor wants to assure his fans he is not giving up anytime soon on his project and will head back to the sets once he recovers.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Cavill has sustained serious injuries while training for the movie\u2019s extensive sword sequences. Interestingly, this is not the first time the actor has been injured on set. A few years ago, while filming for Netflix\u2019s The Witcher Season 2, Cavill tore his hamstrings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As for an update on the Highlander reboot, due to Cavill\u2019s injury, it appears that production will be pushed to early 2026 (via <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2025\/09\/henry-cavill-injury-highlander-delay-1236529275\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Deadline;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Deadline<\/a>).
