Henry Cavill to star in series adaptation of Warhammer 40K

Henry Cavill is all set to headline and serve as an executive producer for the upcoming series adaptation of Warhammer 40k. It was recently announced that Henry Cavill will not be a part of James Gunn’s upcoming DC slate. Apart from hanging the cape as Superman, he also exited from playing the titular role in Netflix’s The Witcher.

According to reports, Amazon Studios is in the final talks of negotiations to acquire the rights to stream on Prime Video. Warhammer 40K is a miniature tabletop wargame that is similar to a strategy board game. First launched in 1987, the game went on to become wildly popular, spawning several spinoffs across mediums like video games and board games. This will be the first live-action adaptation of the game. Henry Cavill had long professed his love for the game series and has established himself as a fan of the games.

Liam Hemsworth has replaced Henry Cavill as The Witcher in the Netflix fantasy series while James and Peter Gunn are yet to finalise an actor for Superman.
