Henry Cavill Asks Kids: Batman or Superman? // Omaze
Would you be open to seeing Superman be the next James Bond? In the last time that the studio had to replace the British spy following the departure of Pierce Brosnan, the final list came down to three names Daniel Craig, Sam Worthington and Henry Cavill.
The role was eventually won by Craig. Cavill apparently lost out due to his young age at the time reportedly suggested as being the main reason he didnt get the gig. Now though, he is the perfect age and with talk that Craig may leave the role, could he be a potential candidate again? The actor appeared on BBCs The Graham Norton Show (via ET this weekend, he was asked if he would consider taking over the iconic role should his schedule allow it. He responded:
Im very busy with the Superman stuff, but if there were any windows and they wanted me to do that kind of role, it would be great. I would love to do it.
Cavill certainly has some major competition to fend off if hes really in for the win; with Tom Hiddleston as the current bookmakers frontrunner to succeed Craig. Hiddleston modestly responded to the news that, though it would be an extraordinary opportunity, he doesnt take the rumours too seriously; treating them more as an inevitable by-product of his role on BBCs The Night Manager.
The likes of Hiddleston, Luke Evans, Tom Hardy and Idris Elba have all been mentioned as potential candidates for the part. The Bond producers however famously have no issues going back to people who missed out the first time on playing Bond such as they did with Moore and Brosnan.
In Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Gotham Citys own formidable, forceful vigilante, fearing the actions of a G*d-like Super Hero left unchecked, takes on Metropoliss most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than its ever known before.
Directed by Zack Snyder and written by Chris Terrio from a screenplay by David S. Goyer, Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice stars Henry Cavill in the role of Clark Kent/Superman and Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman. The film also stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane returning from Man of Steel, joined by Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, and Holly Hunter in a role newly created for the film. Jason Momoa will also be making an appearance as Aquaman.
