After seeing the world’s second-sexiest man alive in the role of the most loved superhero, fans wanted to see him in different roles, too. And thus, Henry Cavill portrayed the character of the great Geralt of Rivia in the Netflix Original series The Witcher. However, fans predicted the British actor to portray James Bond following his roles as a spy in various films. Unfortunately, their dream of seeing their favorite actor as the iconic 007 hasn’t come true, still. But what if you can see him in yet another spy film sequel?

Mission Impossible: Fallout and The Man from U.N.C.L.E were two films that saw Cavill as an action hero. Although it is also the dream of the 39-year-old actor to play James Bond, he still hasn’t had the chance. Despite auditioning for the role, it proved to be unlucky for the actor. However, the actor didn’t lose hope and continued with the genre. After finally getting the green signal for The Man from U.N.C.L.E sequel, Cavill is going to be a part of another action film franchise.

This mysterious project seems to be the sequel to Argylle. A yet-to-be-published novel by Elly Conway inspired the first action thriller. And as the writer of the novel has already started working on the sequel to the novel, it is believed that Cavill has signed the sequel of the film as well. Therefore, if the first film performs well, there will certainly be a sequel to it.

Interestingly, the first novel is picked up even before the book gets published. This brings excitement and eagerness to the hearts of the fans about the film. However, the Man of Steel actor’s constant connection with the action genre can bring his chances of playing James Bond higher.
