Henry Cavill is always caught in the act with iconic roles, from DC’s Superman to Geralt of Rivia, the fantasy hero in The Witcher series. That said, this 37-year-old Englishman still keeps an eye on the UK’s symbol: 007 Agent - James Bond.

To your surprise, it’s not the first time Cavill wants to have a chance to play as “James Bond” throughout his career. In the mid-2000s, he was running for the role but unfortunately lost to Daniel Craig, the man in several James Bond episodes.

Now with the franchise’s “No Time To Die” set to go live on November 12th, Daniel Craig will bid a farewell to his long-time character soon after. 14 years of playing the iconic British spy make Craig become the longest-serving James Bond, considering that his first debut is 2006’s Casino Royale. Prior to him, predecessors like Roger Moore and Sean Connery were taking over the role.

Well, it comes as no surprise if Henry Cavill notices such an opportunity, which turns out to be his lifetime dream. It’s been fifteen years since he was crossed out from the final stage of James Bond casting, Cavill still finds himself striving for the role – “I’d love to play Bond”.

“If Barbara [Broccoli, lead Bond producer] and Mike [G. Wilson, co-producer] were interested in that, I would absolutely jump at the opportunity,” Cavill said.

“At this stage, it’s all very up in the air,” the star told GQ on Sep. 24. “We’ll see what happens. But yes, I would love to play Bond. It would be very, very exciting.”

As a matter of fact, the production team has already been on the lookout for the next Bond. Cavill is not the only name on their list – we have Tom Hiddleston, Tom Hardy, Harry Styles, Richard Madden, etc., while a slew of rumors keep flying around. Out of all, Tom Hardy is also said to be a potential candidate for the Bond tuxedo, according to multiple publications.

But they all have plenty of time as the 26th flick of the “James Bond” series won't be launched until at least 2024.

Netflix achieved great success with The Witcher starring Henry Cavill and they are already planning the new season, just as they are getting ready to make more series of this magnificent universe originally created by Andrzej Sapkowski. The prequel they want to make will be called Blood Origin and actor Jason Momoa wants to participate in one of the two series.

Given the enormous popularity of the adaptation that quickly made it one of the largest television series on the planet and one of the most popular Netflix originals, making another series was a logical step.

Blood Origin will only run for six episodes, presumably to see if there is the same appetite for exploring this universe without the presence of Henry Cavill's Geralt of Rivia, with the plot taking place over a thousand years in the past to tell the origin story of the first Witcher. Sounds like the perfect role for Jason Momoa to step in.

Jason Momoa Won't Be Joining The Witcher Universe Until 2022

Most likely, this new series of The Witcher Universe will not be released until 2022 after the second season of the main series can already be seen on the streaming platform. But now the latest reports claim that Blood Origin was in the works long before it was confirmed and that Netflix is ​​already negotiating with Jason Momoa for a key role.

As a big fan of The Witcher universe, it seems likely that the actor would be delighted to appear in the spin-off series. He's also close personally to Henry Cavill.

While we don't know at this point what role the Aquaman star might play, but Jason Momoa is no stranger to the fantasy genre, having spent four years as part of the Stargate Atlantis series and played Khal Drogo in the first season of 'Game of Thrones'. Although his schedule is a little tight because he'll have to be in the second season of See and Aquaman 2.

Behind the glow of the silver screen, it is hard to imagine the celebrities, with their luxurious lifestyle, would have something in common with us mortals. However, they do – some of them are very normal in real life and enjoy things normal people would like… such as video games.

In this article, we would list out six celebrities that no one would have thought to actually be big gamers.

1 – Brie Larson

The up and coming Captain Marvel actress has been a hardcore Nintendo fan since her early years, and the latest game she played is Breath of the Wild. In a previous interview, Larson shared that her 15th birthday was a giant Nintendo themed party, in which everyone dresses as their favorite Nintendo character and whack each other with balloon hammers. While she favored Mario titles such as Paper Mario in the past, these days, Zelda is all she ever talks about.

Larson also did some foray into the world of PC gaming as well, with some of her previous tweets praising a PC game called Abzu.

2 – Vin Diesel

Vin Diesel is pretty much the opposite of what people would picture an average gamer. The Fast & Furious and Guardian of the Galaxy actor is actually an avid gamer. Diesel’s gaming hobby started over 20 years ago when the guy and his friends started playing D&D tabletop games. The guy is a diehard fan of Dungeon & Dragons – he even has a tattoo of his roleplaying character, Melkor, on his body.

His passion for D&D is actually what sparked the premise for his 2015 film, The Last Witch Hunter. The plot of that movie is actually a collaboration between Diesel and his long time friend Cory Goodman, another D&D addict.

3 – Robin Williams

The late Genie Robin Williams, always known for his upbeat comedy style and various iconic roles over the year, is surprisingly a big gamer. Despite being part of the previous generation of actors, the guy is actually a dedicated gamer, with Legend of Zelda being his all-time favorite. He loves the game so much – even his daughter was named Zelda.

Beyond all the Nintendo classics, Williams also plays WoW, Half-Life, Call of Duty… the usual popular games of the last generations.

4 – Henry Cavill

Henry Cavill, before his role as Superman in the DC Cinematic Universe, was an avid World of Warcraft gamer. The guy has been an addict since his early years – so much he almost missed the call from Snyder for his Superman role due to a dungeon raid in WoW.

Cavill is actually a step better than all other people in this list, however, as the guy actually managed to make a character in his favorite video game successful on the TV screen. His role as Geralt of Rivia in the Netflix Witcher series was a big success – a second season was immediately commissioned, even before the first one finished airing.

5 – Megan Fox

The Transformer bombshell, actress Megan Fox, has actually been a gamer her entire life. A fan of the Super Nintendo in the early days, she has practiced most of her gaming skills on the Aladdin game. In the modern era of gaming, however, she’s actually a big fan of Mortal Kombat – with her favorite title being Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe.

Fox was also a big fan of the Wii console as well. According to what she said in a previous interview, the actual physical actions while playing the Wii helps her train her own body while gaming at the same time.

6 – Daniel Craig

When it comes to the stone-faced 007, no one would have thought Daniel Craig’s favorite hobby would be video games. In a previous interview, Craig described that he just loves the type of games that are as unrealistic as possible. The guy would happily play Halo just because the main gameplay is to shoot aliens while discarding GTA because he doesn’t want to steal cars.

Craig also plays other games too, especially those with huge storylines. He does not have much time for gaming however, as his acting career has been flourishing to this day.
