Summary
Mike Flanagan is in talks to join Amazon MGM's Warhammer 40,000 adaptation as executive producer, while also lining up as showrunner, writer and director.
Amazon gained global rights to Games Workshop's franchise in December 2024, with Henry Cavill attached to executive produce and star in the series.
The move would deepen Flanagan's ties with Amazon after his multiyear overall deal signed in March, with Carrie set to debut on Prime Video on October 7.
Warhammer 40,000 has moved slowly since Cavill's involvement first emerged, making Flanagan's potential hiring a key step toward getting the long-developing series into production.
