Henry Cavill shares set video as filming wraps on The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare

Henry Cavill has shared a behind-the-scenes set video from his new movie The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare as filming wraps.

The film, which also stars Reacher's Alan Ritchson, comes from Guy Ritchie and follows a real World War II combat unit that operated in secret.

In the clip, we see Cavill take direction from Ritchie, the star explaining that signing on to the movie was a "no-brainer" and that he jumped in "very eagerly".

Writing in the comments, the actor said: "That's a wrap! My days on Ungentlemanly Warfare are over. Tis a sad day. I'm going to echo the sentiments of my co-stars and sing the praises of our intrepid crew.

"It's rare to come across a team so driven, dedicated and committed to the storytelling. That drive and dedication is only intensified by having a leader such as Guy Ritchie. His ability to weave story and create character might be second to none, and he wields it like it were magic.

"Those ingredients – skill, drive, and exceptional talent at the top – are only three of the ingredients needed for an experience that will last forever in memory. The fourth is happiness.

"Guy creates happiness on his set, it's a joyful place to be, full of laughter and japes and jests. The crew and cast's approach and personality is key in this. Everyone, without fail, was able to enjoy themselves while also working hard and being exceptional."

Cavill then heaped praise on his fellow stars, including Ritchson, whom he described as "the man mountain, with a heart of gold, and a wisdom and talent that can sweep you off your feet".

He called Alex Pettyfer "the lover, the laugher, the warmth of a big smile and [had] a jaw line that would challenge the Turkish mountains", while Henry Golding had "a snap quick acting reaction time" and was "handsome beyond belief and always a man I was happy to see".

Cavill also called Hero Fiennes Tiffin "a mega star in the making. I know a lot of you know him already, but my oh my, he's going to have a magnificent career".

"To the makers of The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, I shall miss you all, and gods willing – see you soon," the star added.

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare doesn't yet have a US or UK release date on Prime Video.
