The thing that no one is saying: EVERYONE wanting to actually be faithful to a franchise or an IP, Henry might be showing you how to get it done. In other words, you either stand on business or say "f it I'm out good luck". Or maybe that just (finally) works with Henry. 😆
Henry Cavill is showing everyone what it means to have artistic integrity. Also it is showing what actors currently are company stooges or actors that are interested in creating a good adaptation
I still think that Amazon and Games Workshop will find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Games Workshop likes to mess with the franchise in as negative way as possible. (Cough ~Astartes~ cough) Cavil has a history of getting screwed over. Amazon. . . made Rings of Power. I'm not getting excited until I actually see an episode or movie.
Totally understand the skepticism! I'm trying to be hopeful because I've seen Henry Cavill leave projects in the past for lore issues and it sounds like he was the one making the decisions, not Games Workshop or Amazon.
@@holdmydualshock That's my hope. In the MGM / Amazon space, there's talk about a potential Stargate reboot. If Amazon does a good job with WH40k, they might have the studio assets to do other things as a result. Ignore Rings because that's mostly money burned, but Amazon could possibly gain real studio power even if 40k is a complete failure.
I have been worried that Amazon would do what they did to LOTR and screw it up with all DEI BS that have come to expect but absolutely don't want! I am super excited to see a genuine fan such as Cavill taking charge and leading this!
They might still F it up, but not in the same way. In early 2024 there was a major shift in the way many big businesses do their spin. ESG and DEI became "Non business crucial" and even Blackrock is shifting away from it as a way to spin their investment portfolios.
@@holdmydualshock As I understand it, ROP was a perfect storm of bad and wasn't what they wanted. They thought they were buying rights to things they weren't, so had to make a show based on scraps. JJ recommended some marvelous show runners who were attached to big projects in the past, but those projects which succeeded were only able to succeed after those guys were removed. DEI was a big thing among people in power when the show was being outlined. They thought they were laying the groundwork for a new studio, but they weren't buying reusable assets. They fired all of the people who know money. They fired all of the Tolkein experts. etc. I don't know if it is possible to fail on the level of ROP.
I mean.....like. how much brown skin is too much dei? Do you mean politicization of the plot? Because......I think you can be black or non hetero in Warhammer without making it a plot point. Idk man. I wouldn't get too upset with a few salamanders running around. We are as the emperor made us after all.
I never heard of Warhammer or what’s the character really bout but pretty sure Henry Cavill will do amazing job anyway watching people play Indiana Jones and the Great Circle looks amazing the villain is the Actor played Classic Film Candyman the guy playing Indy sounds just like him
As much as this excites me, my trust in GW is destroyed since they caved into Amazon which they 100% did as well as changed the direction of quite a few storylines and lore as I am a massive fan of the novels. HC will do a great job but only on the limited number of projects he has control over. Given the size and scope that is planned, HC can't be everywhere and on every project. They could take the easy win and make money from all GW fans as well as all HC fans and R18 movie fans as well but you KNOW they can't do that. They will still 100% get their DEI quotas in. Please remember that Amazon is DESPARATE to be accepted as a major studio and that means winning awards. In order to do that you need to meet the award standards which themselves have been filled to the brim with this DEI BS. Thats means they want their cake and eat it. That means they want money from blackrock, vanguard and other companies, they want to win awards, they want the clout of being accepted as a major studio and they want box office hits. What they refuse to understand is this is incredibly hard to do as box office tends to TAKE a hit when catering to all this crap.
Thank you for mentioning all of that. I completely forgot about the awards and their quotas and that makes a lot of sense. I do think Cavill will do justice to the projects he creates, but I could see them bastardizing others he's not a part of
Cavilman - Balls of Steel
Never back down to the corpos
Henry: I can only be one
Downey : Putting on a mask for another Marvel movie
Henry as Alpharius
Well Downey is a dude, playing a dude, disguised as another dude😂
FOR THE EMPEROR HENRY CAVILL!!!
God-emperor Cavill 😂
Feel like space marine 2 being a success was a massive win for this show going ahead
1000%, it definitely showed an interest in the IP for people not familiar with the rich lore
Truly a win for all of us, my dualies. Thank God, Henry Cavill still has his career in acting! ✊💪🔥
Well he is making highlander and voltron but Warhammer is what he is really passionate about

He's literally the GOAT celebrity of ALL TIME.
1000% he is! Henry Cavill fights for the fans

I can not express in words how excited I am for this series...
Our boy cavill will deliver. Have faith.

Very hopeful that it won't be like ROP because he is an actual fan and not one of the posers like on ROP but we shall see

Keep in mind Amazon also made fallout, invincible, the boys, vox machina. They do have a history of successful nerdy IP's.
Henry cavill is the god emperor!!

If you're familiar with StarCraft, that was a game made basically to rip off Warhammer. A lot of the themes and aesthetics are pretty similar.
You should watch some lore videos about 40K on TH-cam. They're super fascinating and they also just made an episode on secret level that's amazing
@ I will do that
"Very loosely based on the Warhammer 40K games"
We shall see but I'm excited
What is going on with the exposure in this vid? Had to check my settings to make sure my TV wasn't about to melt.
we will have to look into it, thanks!
