Huston met with Caine in Paris and offered him a role in his film, opposite Sir Sean Connery. But, the director didn’t have to vend the movie hard instead he made clear that his first choice was Bogart.

‘He said, ‘I was originally going to do this with Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart, but they both passed away on me.’ “ Contactmusic quoted Caine, as saying.

‘I said, ‘I’ll do it.’ Humphrey Bogart was one of my favourite actors and I got to play his part, which I thought was fantastic,’ he added.
