On Jimmy Kimmel Live, Henry Cavill tried to explain his pile of gray shame, how he got into Warhammer 40k, and how big his army is!
Many people have wondered (at least in our posts) about Henry Cavill’s army size, whether he plays games, and how he got into Warhammer. In a recent interview with Jimmy Kimmel, he sets the record straight, tries to explain to non-hobbyists what the hobby is all about, and even shows off some work.
Henry Cavill About His Pile of Shame, How He Got Into Warhammer, & How Big His Army Is On Kimmel!
Ah, the picture that really started the craze. When he first posted it on Instagram, the hobby world went crazy. However, like most non-hobby people, Kimmel is a little confused about how it all works. Maybe the best part of this interview is when Cavill talks about having too many gray miniatures! It’s also really cool to see Warhammer miniatures put up on the screen on national television.
When asked how games work, he tells him you need an entire army to battle with. However, he doesn’t directly answer how many miniatures he has or has actually painted ready for battle. Instead, he mentions he still has way too many gray miniatures, but who among us doesn’t have a giant pile of minis just waiting to get painted?
It only shows he is a real hobbyist because we all want to paint more, and we all have extra miniatures while making nothing compared to Cavill. If you had that much cash, think of how quickly your pile would grow!
When Did He Start Playing & Does He Play?
He says he got into the game a little in the late 1980s and has really just kept going ever since. When pressed about playing games, he goes into more detail about how it all works (especially compared to D&D) but doesn’t say too much about how often he actually plays nowadays.
However, he did say one thing that most hobbyists should hear: It’s not about winning; it’s about taking part!
Unfortunately, after the intro of Warhammer, he doesn’t really say much about the upcoming Amazon project, but with the series coming at some point, expect plenty more Warhammer talk from Cavill soon!

From his “pile of shame” to his passion for painting miniatures, Cavill proves once again that he’s a dedicated Warhammer player who’s been in the game for decades. So, whether you’re just starting out or you’re a veteran hobbyist, take a cue from Cavill and remember that it’s not about winning – it’s about having fun and enjoying the hobby.
