今となってはあのスーパーマン映画を見てもなあと思うんだけどどうなんだろう。まあ私はThe Man from U.N.C.L.E.があればいいんですけどね…w
adaptation
意味 [C] ＜…の/…用の＞ 改作 (物), 脚色作品 ＜of/for＞
At 6’2″ with a broad physique, British actor Henry Cavill has had the makings of a Hollywood leading man for years. His starmaking career dates back to 2002 with a feature adaptation of The Count of Monte Cristo.

spawn
意味 (しばしばけなして)〈多くのもの〉を発生させる, 引き起こす
Enola Holmes was a hit last year and has since spawned a sequel. Set in England 1884, the story takes place in a world on the brink of change. It follows 16-year-old Enola (Millie Bobby Brown) as she finds herself under the care of her brothers Sherlock (Cavill) and Mycroft (Sam Claflin) following the disappearance of Enola’s mother (Helena Bonham Carter).

Enola Holmes見たいんですけどね…アマプラとネトフリ両方契約は無理なのでなかなか…ティザー見るにかなり好きな感じなんだけど…。
aloof
意味 (かたく)[通例 be ～] 離れて, 遠ざかって; 無関心で; (非難して) （気取った感じで） 冷淡で, よそよそしくて
“He’s going to be the Sherlock we know in the sense that to the rest of the world he can be aloof and cold, but with Enola he had to have an emotional connection,” Cavill told GQ UK upon the first film’s release. “That was key—and something different than we’ve had in previous Sherlocks.”

ワトソンが出てこないっぽい（そんなに調べてないので出てきてたらすみません）のも他作品と違って面白そうに感じるとこ。
inevitable
意味 [it is ～ that 節]…なのは当然である
One could argue it was inevitable Cavill would appear in a Guy Ritchie film. The Man from U.N.C.L.E. takes place in the Cold War era, with Cavill playoing CIA agent Napoleon Solo, who ultimately finds himself working a joint mission to stop a private criminal organization from constructing a nuclear bomb.

dialect
意味 [言] 方言, お国言葉; 国 [地方] なまり （発音だけでなく語彙· 語法も含む）
“I think the hardest thing for me was the accent,” said Cavill to Flavourmag. “When we started, Guy said, ‘Okay, I want something a bit like Clark Gable, but not Clark Gable.’ And I said, ‘Okay, cool.’ So I sat down with Andrew Jack, our dialect coach, and he ran me through some Clark Gable stuff. We worked on it. We kind of got it down, and then we started shooting.”

このこだわりがわかるほどまだ全然聞き取れないんだよな…TOEICのリスニングパートも各国どこっぽい発音か全然分からないくらいだからw いつかアクセントの面白さも楽しめるようになるといいなー。
demeanor
意味 [U] (かたく)[時に a ～](特徴を示す) 態度, ふるまい, 話し方.
Add some facial hair to Cavill’s towering demeanor, and he makes a terrific villain for the Mission: Impossible franchise. Mission: Impossible – Fallout takes place two years after Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) successfully captured Solomon Lane (Sean Harris).

remnant
意味 [通例～s]残り (物), 余り (物); 残骸; 名残
The remnants of the Syndicate have reformed into another organization called the Apostles. Under the leadership of a mysterious fundamentalist, the organization is planning on acquiring three plutonium cores. Ethan and his team are sent to Berlin to intercept them with the help of a shady CIA agent (Cavill), who is later revealed to be an ally of the Apostles.

もっとストーリーに絡んでほしかったけど、まあMIはあの強引な疾走感を楽しむものですからね…。
polarize
意味 〈人々· 意見など〉を二極化させる, 二分する
Cavill’s performance as Clark Kent was polarizing upon Man of Steel’s release, but in retrospect, it’s his finest performance to date. Zack Snyder’s 2013 film follows the superhero through his upbringing, with Cavill capturing our hearts in the adult version.
