Mike Flanagan Officially Joins Henry Cavill’s New Prime Sci-Fi Series In Massive Writing Update

The horror master is switching genres.

The long-gestating Warhammer 40,000 series has received a huge new update.

The game, which is also known as Warhammer 40K and is produced by Games Workshop, is a miniature wargame set in a distant future where the remaining dregs of humanity are under siege by supernatural and extraterrestrial threats. In 2022, Amazon MGM Studios acquired the rights to adapt the game, which were brought to them by Vertigo Entertainment and Batman v Superman star Henry Cavill. Cavill is set to star in the upcoming Prime Video Warhammer 40K series, in addition to executive producing, though the project has been slow to come to fruition.

In their latest annual report, Games Workshop revealed that the Warhammer 40K series has now been boarded by United Artists and Mike Flanagan. Flanagan has already completed outlines for the story and "should soon be moving on to script." While their announcement indicated that this movement does not necessarily mean that the show will be debuting soon, as "these adaptations will take years to bring successfully to market," it is a major step forward.

Mike Flanagan, creator and director of “The Fall of the House of Usher” (Netflix) is well know for casting a repertory of actors in his productions (including his wife Kate Siegal). He must have been binge watching a lot of science fiction when he was casting this new show. I count at least 7 actors in prominent roles who are well known for appearing in other scifi projects.

Mike Flanagan - Director/Writer

Annabeth Gish - She play Eliza Usher, the crazy mother, in episode one. Of course she also played Scully’s replacement Monica Reyes in the X Files.

Bruce Greenwood - He stars in the series as Roderick Usher. Of course he also played Captain Pike in the Star Trek film Reboot.

Mark Hammill - He’s the slimy family lawyer Arthur Pym. But the world knows him as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars.

Nicholas Lea - He has the recurring role of the judge in the series. Everyone remembers him as the traitorous Alex Krycek in X Files.

Mary McDonnell - She plays Madeline Usher, Roderick’s ruthless sister. She also played the President of the 12 Colonies in the Battlestar Galactica reboot.

T'Nia Miller- she plays Roderick’s deceitful daughter Victorine LaFourcade. Recently she had roles in both Foundation & Peripheral.
