Games Workshop and Amazon Studios have announced contract finalizations for their joint venture in expanding the Warhammer 40,000 universe. It was just a year ago that Amazon Studios announced it had secured rights for Warhammer 40,000 and that Henry Cavill would serve as Executive Producer for all of its productions. Now Games Workshop and Amazon Studios are proud to announce the next milestone has been reached and the big question is whether to begin making a movie, television show, or both. The press release states that teams are getting put into place with screenwriters hard at work in penning the new project with Cavill at the helm.
