20 years after losing the role, Henry Cavill is keen to be in James Bond, but not as 007

Henry Cavill.

Henry Cavill may have been Superman and Geralt of Rivia, but there is one role that keeps following him around. The actor first auditioned to play James Bond back in 2005, ultimately losing out on the role to Daniel Craig.

However, fans have always wondered if he could return to the part, especially now there is a vacancy for a new 007. Cavill isn't so sure anymore though, as he revealed in a new interview with Heat magazine from March 2026.
