Amazon launches a series from the Warhammer universe. The lead role will be played by Henry Cavill. You can find all the information about the release, the plot, the trailer, and the cast here on MeinMMO.
What kind of series is this? Warhammer 40,000 is a vast universe that has already told various stories. Henry Cavill, known among other things as the actor of Superman or Geralt in the Witcher series, is a big nerd himself. Therefore, it is one of his dreams to create a Warhammer series and act in it.
Amazon is currently planning to initiate such a production. There is no title yet. Official information is still scarce at this stage, but we will summarize everything that is currently known. In the future, we will update all information so that you are always up to date.
When is the premiere of the Warhammer series? Currently, there is no official release date known. The series is still in its early stages. At the end of 2023, a contract was signed between Amazon and Games Workshop, and since then, the project has been under development, which was confirmed once again in December 2024 (via deadline.com)
Henry Cavill mentioned in May 2025 to Esquire that the series would be different from anything he has done so far, and Warhammer is a complex brand that brings challenges. Games Workshop also mentioned in a financial report that fans should not expect news too soon (via ign.com).
In a new financial report dated 13 January 2026, Games Workshop also states that it will probably take several more years. So we should not expect a release in 2026.
To pass the time, you can watch the trailer for Secret Level, a series on Amazon that also chooses Warhammer as a theme in one episode.

Cast and crew: Who is in the Warhammer series? It is still unknown who will be in front of the camera. While it is not yet confirmed that Henry Cavill will be seen in one of the lead roles, it is to be expected due to his involvement in the production.
