Henry Cavill's 2005 James Bond audition tapes have surfaced online, offering a glimpse into what could have been. Shared on the Ron South YouTube channel, an avid filmmaker's account with 1,890 subscribers, the tapes also feature Sam Worthington, Rupert Friend, and Anthony Starr. Cavill's audition, however, has garnered significant attention over the years, with many, including Casino Royale director Martin Campbell, praising its "tremendous" quality. Campbell reportedly favored Cavill, but ultimately, other decision-makers opted for Daniel Craig. While Cavill didn't secure the Bond role, he later starred in the spy thriller Argylle, alongside Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, and Catherine O’Hara, though the film received mixed reviews. Cavill's career continues to thrive, with notable roles as Superman for DC, Geralt of Rivia in Netflix's The Witcher, and numerous other projects.
