As 300 director Zack Snyder (Watchmen) explained to Entertainment Weekly, Cavill was his favorite to play the Spartiate leader Leonidas. But he wanted to remain available because he was hoping for the 007 role and his first James Bond production James Bond 007 – Casino Royale.
As the actor explains, he came very close to the big agent appearance, but lost to Daniel Craig because of his young age. So he went twice empty-handed, because Snyder had long since awarded the 300 lead role to Gerard Butler.
It’s not the only time Henry Cavill has missed a major role. But his fans don’t even think about it to let the 007 dream die. For them is the Superman actor also a clear favorite in the new selection process.
