Henry Cavill is circling “Warhammer 40,000.” at Amazon Studios

Following his resignation as Superman, Henry Cavill is considering his options as the DC character undergoes a reboot under the new administration. As per sources, he is investigating different open doors as he is handling suggestions for film and television projects. One of them is thought to be Warhammer 40,000 at Amazon Studios, which is in a more advanced stage. The deal, which is still being negotiated, would involve Cavill executive producing a sci-fi television series and possibly a game-based film, with Vertigo Entertainment also producing, although specifics are murky.

Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 is a miniature wargame in which players use miniature warrior and combat vehicle models to fight. It takes place in the far future, when supernatural beings and hostile aliens threaten a stagnant human civilization. The models in the game are a mix of supernatural creatures, aliens, and humans who wield futuristic weapons and have supernatural abilities. Through a series of novels published by Games Workshop’s publishing division Black Library, the game’s fictional setting was developed.

Cavill would remain in the genre space during the project. He most recently starred in Netflix’s fantasy drama series The Witcher as the show’s host.
