The Men Who Were Nearly Bond Back

47. Henry Cavill
Nearly Bond in: Casino Royale
Cavill was reportedly so impressive that producers nearly looked past the fact he was only 23 at the time. That'd probably be more bearable if he hadn't also come close to being cast as Superman and Batman - let's hope he gets his break soon.

48. Ewan McGregor
Nearly Bond in: Casino Royale
McGregor was, for some time, the bookie's favourite for the role: he's Scottish, continuing that Celtic trend; is already an established star and can do sexy, funny and action. That said, he reportedly turned down the role, fearing typecasting.
