Guy Ritchie's big screen adaption of the classic spy-centric TV show The Man From U.N.C.L.E hit a snag when Tom Cruise departed the project to focus on Mission: Impossible 5, leaving the lead role of super spy Napoleon Solo vacant. Now it is reported that Henry Cavill, whose career is set to go strospheric after Man Of Steel is released in little over two weeks, is in talks for the role, keeping the project on track for it's Autumn start date. If the deal goes through he will join Armie Hammer as Solo's Russian partner Illyia Kuryakin, and swedish actress Alicia Vikander, who has been cast in an unknown role.
