Mike Flanagan thinks 'Warhammer is a fascinating world' but can't tell us anything else about the upcoming Warhammer 40,000 project because 'Henry Cavill would be furious'

Game Workshop and Henry Cavill's Warhammer 40,000 project has been in the works for two years now, with the most recent news being that renowned horror director, writer, and showrunner Mike Flanagan—known for projects such as the Carrie miniseries or The Haunting of Hill House—has joined the crew and will be writing the script.

Otherwise mum's the word concerning this project, with very little being shared about it. In fact, the most we've got so far has been Flanagan recently chatting about a few bits and pieces during his Carrie press tour.

Flanagan describes the process of discovering all that Warhammer 40,000 has to offer as "a very cool and unexpected on-ramp into it, which I think is very exciting. I’m sworn to secrecy on all of it, but I'm having the time of my life working on it."

It's good to hear that, at the very least, he's having fun. There's certainly a lot of material to work with here and a lot to get stuck into for a horror director. I haven't been completely convinced by some of Flanagan's projects. Midnight Mass took too long to get going, The Fall of the House of Usher felt confused, and The Haunting of Bly Manor was too much of a Hill House clone. Though, I am still intrigued to see how this Warhammer 40,000 will turn out, especially with Cavill working on it.

I actually quite enjoyed Amazon's Secret Level Warhammer 40,000 short. You can hardly go wrong when focusing on the Deathwatch, but the gore and the violence still went down really well in my book.
