Amazon is developing a Warhammer show starring Henry Cavill

Games Workshop, developer of the Warhammer franchise, announced it closed a deal with Amazon Studios. The latter now has the rights to adapt Warhammer 40,000 into a series, film or other media. It’s working on these adaptations in partnership with Vertigo Studios and actor Henry Cavill.

The Hollywood Reporter originally reported on the rumor that Amazon, Vertigo and Games Workshop were close to completing their deal. Shortly after, Games Workshop confirmed it. It’s not clear if Amazon is making a series, a film or both, but they have confirmed that Cavill will play the starring role. It has not yet named a writer or director for the project.
