Henry Cavill's upcoming spy film has sparked debates about whether or not he could also play James Bond. However, the main reason he may not be the next 007 has little to do with the similarities between his new film, "Argylle," and the Bond franchise. The two films have completely different tones and styles, with Bond being gritty and realistic while "Argylle" is humorous and over-the-top. 

Therefore, it's unlikely that one project would prevent Cavill from pursuing the other. Additionally, Cavill's age may be a bigger obstacle. At 40 years old, he is already older than Daniel Craig was when he debuted as Bond, and upcoming delays in production could make Cavill even older by the time Bond 26 begins. Furthermore, Cavill was previously considered for the role of Bond when he was younger, but ultimately, it went to Craig. Despite his action star pedigree and past bond affiliation, it seems unlikely that Cavill will ever get the chance to play 007.
