Henry Cavill Would Like to Be the Next James Bond

Daniel Craig’s run as James Bond is coming to an end. This naturally has people suggesting who the next Bond should be. James Bond alumnus Pierce Brosnan likes the idea of Tom Hardy taking over. Meanwhile, many of my friends are saying Idris Elba or bust. I don’t know that I have a personal favorite, but a third name I hear come up a lot is Henry Cavill. Cavill is doing press for his latest film Mission: Impossible – Fallout and when asked if he’d be interested in playing the legendary spy, this was his response:

“I would love to do it of course. I think Bond would be a really fun role. It’s British, it’s cool. I think that now that I have my Mission: Impossible badge we can do real stunts and really amp it up as well... Not to say they weren’t doing real stunts I’m just saying it would be fun for me to actually take what I’ve learnt on this and carry it through to a movie like Bond. I’d love to play a Brit. I don’t get to play a Brit very often. So yes, I would love the opportunity and if they were to ask I would say ‘yes.’”

I do think it’s interesting that he’s not a Brit very often, but is he James Bond? Do you think Cavill would be a good Bond or do you have someone else as your top pick?
