The project, slated for a 2026 debut, will be produced in partnership with Games Workshop, the franchise’s creator, and will feature British star Henry Cavill lending his voice to the legendary Space Marine commander.

“Bringing the grim darkness of the far future to animation is a thrilling challenge,” Cavill said in a recent interview.

Industry analysts note that Amazon’s streaming division saw ↑ 12% subscriber growth last quarter, a metric that could buoy the show’s budget significantly.
