After his departure, fans turned their eyes to Henry Cavill to take on the role of the British MI6 agent. Being an ideal fit for the character of James Bond, the fans wait desperately for any updates on Henry Cavill’s role in the upcoming James Bond movies but nothing confirmed has yet come to pass.
In an interview, Christoph Waltz talked about the ending of the 2021 movie. According to him, the ending was so perfect that they could continue the saga of James Bond without any resurrections or reboots for the franchise.
“That’s audacious, but it’s fabulous. It’s fabulous, because it’s definitely something no one expected. And it does not contradict the continuation of the saga. Daniel made this thing so much his own, and such a specific entity within the saga, that it’s ok if it continues. Even if Daniel’s [James Bond] had died.”
This could potentially mean that Henry Cavill might join the franchise as a protégé to the earlier James Bond and then take on the role of the master. This could also mean that Cavill might not be in the mix after all as the producers of the franchise Barbara Broccoli look for other actors to fill in the role.
