Henry Cavill has his eyes set on adapting the Warhammer 40,000 video game series.
The declaration made by the actor best known for his part in the film Man of Steel comes on the heels of news that he would not be returning to the Superman series, nor will he be returning to reprise his major role in Netflix’s The Witcher, as had been stated before.
Although more information about the movie is still coming to light, on Friday, Henry Cavill emphasized what a once-in-a-lifetime experience this would be for him in an Instagram post.
In addition, he was quick to give credit to his girlfriend Natalie Viscuso, who is working with him on the project.
Cavil, who is now 39 years old, commented on the popular fantasy tabletop game that is manufactured by Games Workshop by saying, “For 30 years I had dreamed of witnessing a Warhammer world in real action.”
“Now, after 22 years of experience in this business, I finally feel like I have the skill set and expertise to bring a Warhammer Cinematic Universe into the world,” he said.
“Partnering with Natalie Viscuso at Vertigo has been a gift beyond words, and without her we would not have found the ideal home at Amazon.”
And the flexibility that comes with with having a home like Amazon will allow us to stay loyal to the expansive nature of Warhammer.
He made the following commitment to the Warhammer fanbase: “To all of you out there who adore this IP, I vow to respect it.” “I assure you that I will bring you something that is familiar.
In addition, I will do my best to reveal to you a marvelous object that has not been seen before.”
