Why Craig was choose over Cavill for the James Bond function is a subject Vaughn materialise to have insight into , as he disclose to hisArgyllestar during a recent appearing onSirius XM .

It was really bizarre because , when Henry was auditioning for Bond , I was at Pinewood [ Studios ] , and Daniel was as well , at the same time , and I ’d go off and meet with Daniel and he ’d say what ’s going on . He says there ’s this young guy wire Henry Cavill I think they ’re seeing as well . And … we had n’t doneStardustyet . … But that ’s how you derive into my radio detection and ranging . I was thinking , well who ’s this guy rope who get down to the last two for alliance ? So that ’s how I discovered you .
And I know that the director preferred your audition , but Barbara [ Broccoli ] preferredLayer Cake . … And they decided you were too young . And I probably should n’t have said that , but [ Eon ] are n’t that keen on me anyway , so what have I incur to lose ? But he would be excellent .

Henry Cavill May Never Be James Bond – And It Doesn’t Matter
It ’s difficult to question Eon ’s decision to go with Daniel Craig as 007 , given the Brobdingnagian success of the actor’sBond movieera . Craig indeed showed raft of grit in hisLayer Cakeperformance , and sand was exactly what Broccoli and company were going for as they reinvent the Bond franchise exit intoCasino Royale .

The youth divisor was working against Cavill however , as the Bond franchise traditionally seeks 007 actors who are somewhat mature ( Craig is a full fifteen age old than Cavill ) .
James Bond is confirm to fall , even though Daniel Craig ’s loop of the lineament died inNo Time to Die .
There is , of class , a fresh round ofBond castinggoing on right now , opening the door for Cavill to have another shot at the office . Whether he wants another shot at the role is another question , as his career has croak quite well since recede out to Craig beforeCasino Royale . Perhaps Cavill still dreams of playing 007 , but even if he does n’t , he ’s carve out a place for himself as a major star in both big franchise films and smaller , quirkier attribute . Cavill may not even think he need Bond , though he remains a popular pick among oddsmakers .
