Henry Cavill's 'Tremendous' James Bond Audition Seemingly Appears Online

Authore: JosephUpdate：Mar 18,2025

Henry Cavill's 2005 James Bond audition tapes have surfaced online, offering a glimpse into what could have been. Shared by the Ron South YouTube channel, an avid filmmaker's channel with 1,890 subscribers, the tapes also feature auditions from 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 his performance as "tremendous." While Campbell reportedly favored Cavill, the role ultimately went to Daniel Craig due to other producers' preferences. Cavill later fulfilled his spy ambitions in Argylle, albeit to less critical acclaim; IGN awarded the film a 4/10 rating despite its star-studded cast including Bryce Dallas Howard, Sam Rockwell, Bryan Cranston, and Catherine O’Hara. Despite this, Cavill maintains a successful and diverse acting career, notably portraying Superman for DC and Geralt of Rivia in Netflix's The Witcher.
