Rome: Actor Henry Cavill, best known for playing Superman, stepped out with real-life girlfriend and stuntwoman Lucy Cork.

The action hero and Cork enjoyed a romantic dinner here, reports mirror.co.uk.

Cavill, 34, met the British star, 26, on the set of "Mission Impossible 6" and wasted no time going public - posting a series of photos to his social media accounts.

In one post he called her "my Lucy" and described her as "what positive forward motion, determination, bravery, strong will, dedication and self-respect looks like".

Cavill added: "She is one of the best stuntwomen in the world. She has defined herself. She continues to define herself. She grows, every day. She is Lucy Cork because she says so."

Cork, a former pole dancer and gymnast, has also worked on "Wonder Woman", "The Mummy" and "Jack Reacher: Never Go Back".

A source said: "When Lucy's around, Henry goes weak at the knees, like Superman has had a dose of kryptonite."
