Henry Cavill has shared an announcement on the newly confirmed Warhammer 40K series, teasing the amount of work that’s already gone into the Prime Video show behind the scenes.
“My incredible team and I, alongside the brilliant minds at Games Workshop, have been working away in concept rooms, breaking down approaches to the enormity and magnificence of the Warhammer world,” he continued.
“Together, we’ve been sifting through the plethora of incredible characters and poring over old tomes and texts. Our combined efforts have led us to a fantastic place to start our Universe, which has been agreed upon by those up on high at both Amazon and Games Workshop. That starting place shall, for now, remain a secret. Watch this space, though – more to come in time!”
Further details on the show are still pretty up in the air, as no other casting information has been revealed yet and a showrunner hasn’t been locked in either. Cavill is a lifelong fan of the game, which sees players control armies of miniature models. “I have loved Warhammer since I was a boy, making this moment truly special for me,” he said when the series was first announced two years ago. “The opportunity to shepherd this cinematic universe from its inception is quite the honor and the responsibility.”
