Following the news that Henry Cavill won’t be returning to play Superman in future DC movies, there are rumours that he will be heading an Amazon adaptation of the popular miniature game Warhammer 40,000.

It’s been known for a while that the actor loves nothing more than to collect and paint his little men, so the role would suit him perfectly. Amazon is in the final stages of talks for the rights to the Games Workshop property, which will see the adaptation appear as a series on the Prime streaming services.

There are no showrunners attached as yet, but Cavill’s involvement will be in an acting capacity and executive producer. As the contracts have yet to be signed, the series will still be some way off, so we are still left guessing what Henry’s next project will be.
