Henry Cavill shared a new update on Prime Video’s Warhammer series during an interview with Inverse. He first listed the games among his favorites. “That is so difficult to answer because I have lots of favorites for different reasons and in different genres,” the Man of Steel star said. “I feel like I’m betraying some loved ones. But I’ll try to keep it to three, or maybe four or five. So: Skyrim, Warhammer, Red Dead Redemption II, and XCOM.” Cavill added, “And I said I would stop, but I have to say World of Warcraft. I think that’s poignant to mention with WoW: Forever coming out. I’m tempted to return to that old friend and that old play style,” he continued.

When asked what he could divulge about Warhammer, Cavill confirmed that the project was “going really well.” He added, “Obviously near and dear to my heart, Warhammer. So it’s one of those things which I want to make sure is absolutely perfect, and we’re protecting the IP whilst also telling the best story we can possibly tell, which will lead to better stories.”

Cavill also had glowing praise for The Haunting of Hill House and Carrie creator Mike Flanagan, who joined the project as a writer in July 2026. The Witcher actor said that Flanagan “is an incredible partner. He’s such an enormously talented man.”

Games Workshop produced Warhammer, and its first edition came out in 1987. Since then, these games have received adaptations across multiple mediums. In addition to the live-action series mentioned above, Prime Video is developing an animated show with Cavill serving as executive producer (via Variety).
