Henry Cavill has four brothers: Piers Cavill, Simon Cavill, Charlie Cavill, and Niki Cavill.

On "The Graham Norton Show" in December 2021, Henry gave a description of an incident involving his brothers that perfectly captured what it was like growing up in their home.

Henry recalled how his father had once returned from work and noticed a change in the wallpaper in the house. The reason for the new wallpaper was then brought up by Henry's father to his mother. Henry's mother answered, "It is easier to clean the blood off this one!" Henry referred to his time spent with his brothers as "a lot of rough and tumble."

Because Cavill and his brothers continue to lead a quiet behind-the-scenes life, little is known about them outside of interview moments.

The following are Henry Cavill's brothers:

Piers Cavill

One of Henry Cavill's older siblings is Piers Cavill. Piers has kept his personal life out of the spotlight, so little is known about him. According to The Famous People, Piers is the oldest of the five boys and was a former army officer.

Henry knew not to bother his older siblings, though, as any other little brother would. During a “Jimmy Kimmel Live” interview, Henry gave a brief overview of his older siblings. Henry disclosed, “The eldest gets the toughest game.” “They get all the discipline.” “By the time it gets to us, it's all just a free for all.”

Henry responded to Kimmel's remark that, as the fourth of his siblings, he must have been extremely tough by saying that, even though he was about the same size as his brothers, he knew better than to mess with their more formidable elders. Henry was told by Kimmel that “even Superman is scared of somebody.” The “Witcher” star nodded in agreement, confirming that this was true.

Another of Henry's older brothers is Lieutenant Colonel Niki Cavill. The Cavill family has been involved in the military for a long time. According to The Famous People, both Piers and Niki had served in the military, and Henry's father had reportedly served in the Navy.

Niki served in Afghanistan before receiving his MBE in 2012. "A courageous field soldier" was how Niki was described in a statement to the BBC. The statement went on to say that Niki's operations included a counter-insurgency program.

Simon Cavill

While appearing on "Jimmy Kimmel Live," Henry Cavill made fun of his brother, demonstrating that he is just like any other sibling. On the late-night show, the actor made fun of Simon Cavill, one of his older brothers.

Cavill disclosed, "My eldest brother, one up, was four years older than me. He was considerably larger and incredibly strong," he added. "He was so strong that we would make fun of him and say 'Hulk smash.'"

After growing out of his boisterous childhood stage, Simon entered the business world. According to DicyTrends, Simon eventually settled down with Victoria Cavill and got a job in finance. When "Man of Steel" hit theaters and Henry's career was at its peak, the couple got married in 2014. However, little is known about Henry's older brothers among fans.

Charlie Cavill

Charlie Cavill, Henry Cavill's younger brother, is unquestionably the most well-known of the family. Charlie's decision to follow in his brother's footsteps and enter the acting industry is largely responsible for the knowledge the public has of him. According to Charlie's IMDb profile, his brother, Henry, is two years older than him.

More details about the upscale candle business that Charlie and his wife, Heather, founded are available on their website, Cavill and Wicks. Additionally, the website provides interesting tidbits about him, such as the fact that he spent 11 years working in the entertainment sector, loves Halloween, and drinks.
