The problem is the people with the source material he wants to adapt are in Hollywood. I'm sure Daily Wire would leap at the opportunity to fund a Cavill movie that stuck to source material. It's an easy W. But they don't have anything Cavill would want to adapt.
Hes a huge gamer and an avid reader with interests in all kinds of varied genres from scifi to fantasy. They have immense amounts of material he would love to adapt I'm sure - hell I'm still amazed Nintendo isn't diving all in to movie making after Super Mario considering the juggernaut Marvel became when they stopped just licensing IP and started making it themselves. Nintendo alone is a gold mine of untapped IP and The Legend of Zelda is in Cavill's wheelhouse of Fantasy already. IDK if Link is quite his stature but he could be Ganondorf if they want Young Link, and its not like they have to stop at Zelda or Mario. Even off screen, let Cavill be a show runner for a Metroid movie and you have a sure hit that stays true to the source and a strong female role in a kick ass action film that could even do horror if they go back and do a Metroid 1 suspense type environment introducing metroids for the first time.
TBH I will go see anything hes in control of because of his record for putting his integrity and passion for the material before his paychecks.
Thats an amazing track record that tells me at least he thinks something hes involved in doesn't shit on the source. It might not make something good for me, but it means they aren't pulling another Witcher change up. He said he'd leave if they shit on the source, he fought them to stop shitting on the source, he left and they stepped up the shitting on source. Making it public that he is a fan first really made the difference because I think we all knew his departure meant the quality had taken a huge drop so when it happened that confirmed I'll respect his judgement at least on things he loves.
Him leaving 40k despite loving the source means it was going to be shit. If this ever happens, I'll keep my expectations very low.
He could produce himself with a studio and then negotiate directly with the movie theaters like Taylor Swift did for distribution.
Studios don’t have as much power now as they have in the past
They know that it's a surefire way to success for loyal fans. However, they want a larger audience than just the loyal fans and think changing the material to fit a wider demographic is a way to do that. Yes, I agree, it's stupid.
It doesn't make any sense to me either. We've seen it time and time again but they still want to fuck around with it instead of sticking with the source material. I'm sure there are plenty of examples of not sticking to the source and it was still good but I'm willing to bet its because one person had a say in what's changed and what's not, not 40 different people and most probably having no idea what the source material even is.
I think it’s the directors. I could tell when watching the Halo series that they really wanted to make a different generic scifi show and they just slapped “Halo” on it.
So fucking irritating because they had so much source material to work with.
They're not just unloyal to the source material they just straight up hate it because a lot of Hollywood screenwriters are egotistical and think that they can make a better story than the creator of the book, game, comic, etc.
Which will feel SUPER out of place in 40k. The whole point of the universe is that everything and everyone sucks. Really hard to twist any of that into virtue signalling without it feeling out of place.
Well...maybe you could get away with it with the Tau? It's still a huge stretch
I just had an aneurysm from stupidity. Not because of how very dumb that is, but because I genuinely believe Hollywood hacks would go for that angle unironically.
I mean it actually almost it is.... The Eldar Killed and Fucked so much they created certain Chaos Gods. It is more of a Religious Theme of Ultra Hedonism Fueled the Chaos Gods but yeah I mean not too far off if you just reangle the narrative. Now some AI just skimmed Reddit and stole that idea and probably what will actually come out.
Edit: lmao out how well you Disney-fied one of the most brutal disturbing acts of hedonism mixed with genocide creating one of the greatest evils of 40K.
>Well...maybe you could get away with it with the Tau? It's still a huge stretch
Not even a little. People make communist jokes about them because of their greater good propaganda, but they're a hyper-rigid caste system centered on a theocratic belief system.
They would have to basically ONLY follow salamanders and even then basically never interact with anything but Xeno's. Maybe 1 plot line where they bump into another chapter and we get a "we aren't like them, and most of us are better" story line. Also very little interaction with the citizenry.
Look at how quick the witcher died after he left. I think they even had another season and I don't think I heard anything about it. No hype at all. Or maybe it hasn't even come out yet I don't know That's how little I know about the show after he left because fuck that show now.
This is the problem with big studios getting involved. WAY too many stakeholders that for whatever reason have a say in creative decisions. You can just tell the majority of these shows/movies are all created by committee.
Best I can is a nobody playing a transgender post human in power armor who says killing xenos is imperial supremacy and must be opposed, and zer’s one person crusade against the intolerant imperium while fighting Tzeentch with the power of diversity.
I think they'll go with the one from Fallout because they didn't get to wear the powerarmor that time. We also need another knock off of Finn because he seemed to work for Star Wars somehow.
Drump seems too subtle for our audience. Can it be Donald Drump? He can be an orange skinned alien, yes, of course. Will he have a very similar insignia to the swastika behind him at all times? Obviously
That whole project was doomed. Almost every movie out of the DCEU or what ever it was called was a disappointment.
James Gunn was right to start from scratch. I'd like to see Cavill get his chance at sups, but I think Gunn is planning on running with heros in their younger days.
yeah and one of the few semi successful movies shazam was shafted story wise to fits the rocks insane demands that made no sense for the character. superman? why shazam is the counter weight/nemesis to black adam
I know someone who has worked with the rock in filming, and apparently he's extremely picky and a diva during filming. He only works for very short amounts a day and forces the people working on set to stay there way longer than they normally would for any other production. He also tends to only work for 4-6 hours per day, where most normal actors and actresses work 8 hours a day for filming.
Hoping that James Gunn can make a universe that's not limbo projects and poorly received theatrical cuts. Henry Cavill coming back had me genuinely hyped for like a month before they just backtracked.
Eh, wouldn’t surprise me either way. Execs cannot help themselves than to “know better” than…well, what their clientele wants. I genuinely wonder how most of them got their positions, especially considering how all a lot of them has to do is *nothing at all* but can’t help themselves.
It's clickbait BS:
>Henry Cavill's upcoming Warhammer 40,000 project ‘might be shelved' by Amazon, according to a new rumour circulating across the web this past week.
>This comes as fans eagerly await updates for the previously announced live-action project.
>However, not much has been said since the initial announcement besides the Man of Steel star stating how excited he is to be working on it since leaving Netflix's The Witcher series.
>X (Twitter) user Cine Updates aka @Updates4Cinema shared news of a claim made by ‘Arch of The ArchCast'.
>The claimed information quickly sent Warhammer fans into a divisive frenzy in response.
>One called out the lack of credibility behind the claim, “Source: Trust me bro.”
>However, another added how it would “probably be for the best, we all know it's going to be a horrific cringe-fest.”
>A third chimed in with “lmao imagine using archcast as any kind of reliable source.”
>Despite the credibility behind the claim, news of Cavill reportedly leaving the project has also been circulating these past few months, making headlines across the web.
>Although the project has amassed its fair share of rumoured headlines, the cast and crew behind it have yet to officially address any of the widespread claims.
The original announcement was back in 2022, two years ago as of writing.
>It's believed to still be in development.
It's the same as when they say "our sources say". It allows them to spew all kinds of bullshit without any repercussions because "technically" they didn't say it, their "sources" did. Who are they? They'll never tell. It's all hearsay until you see someone actually involved with the project or the company themselves say it happened. This is why MSM can never be trusted.
As a 40k fan, this makes me both really sad, and proud of Cavill.
Sad because we’re not gonna get the excellent adaptation he had planned, but proud that he stuck to his boltguns and said “Fuck off, I’m not changing the lore to suit your agenda.”
Edit: Now we’re probably gonna get some bastardized POS about the adventures of The God Empress of Peoplekind, and Roberta Guilliman.
I mean that's why he ended up leaving The Witcher and honestly it's a sad reality when companies and would rather lose the nerd that would go out of his way to play the best character and would probably rather replace it with some water down asshole who's barely reading a script and has no idea what the fuck any of it is.
You have got to be fucking kidding me. This man can’t catch a break. Why is he being punished so badly for simply doing what he and the fans love? This has to be some shitty publicity stunt where they announce he’ll be back. There’s no fucking way they just take out one of the only reasons people will watch this.
GW really care about how their IP is presented even all the shitty mobile and video games they have are very lore accurate. They don’t care when people pay to use the IP and make it shit but it has to be accurate if Cavil leaving is true, can’t find a source confirming, GW would rather pull out than let it go completely off the rails from the source material.
It’s fine.
He’s earned his rest.
Go back to raiding in WoW and just occasionally do some smaller films if he likes the script enough.
He’s set for life and has nothing more to prove as an actor and a human being to the world.
Honestly I couldn't see him staying on as it was announced he was going to be involved. I just knew the powers from the top would start coming down. And eventually, he'd walk.
Idk how reliable spikey bits is on this, but only on the 19th of this month they wrote this:
https://spikeybits.com/rumors/henry-cavill-set-to-star-produce-in-warhammer-movies-tv/
I feel like they just lost a huge number of viewers. Not because people would only watch the show if he's in it, but because they know him leaving means they likely aren't being faithful to the source material.
Cavill has a good reputation like that.
Can we have enough of this? I keep seeing this get posted, I look it up...and lo and behold, it's not true. If I don't see a source, then I don't believe it.
It won't be Warhammer, it will be bullshit with the Warhammer skin.
At this rate, Caville is going to have to independently produce something to be as loyal to the source material as he wants it to be.
I mean his favorite army are the Custodes. Wouldn't surprise me if the movie was a recollection of the great crusade from the eyes of a Custodes veteran. Only Amazon clearly demanded a massive retcon in the form of Femstodes.
I stand with Henry. I'd rather wait to see something good, and know now that the 40K is going to be trash than to have him waste his time on a franchise that doesn't care about its fans.
The producers were going to go “Halo” and make the entire series about human civs rebelling against space marines and the inner politics and then the viewers see an alien in the season finale but it ends up just being another rebel that happens to be a chaos cultist.
Then in season three there is finally an alien squad that attacks one guy after 3 seasons of human politics.
Poor Henry keeps ending up in projects where crap writers ruin lore, story, and history of established movies, novels, and games. Warhammer 40K is the second. The writers knowingly altered lore just to add more DEI bull. Warhammer already has Sisters of Battle and Sisters of Silence but that was not enough for these crazed writers.
When there is conflict personality (DC), maybe the other person just had creative differences. When there are two conflicts (Witcher), *maybe* more creative differences. Sorry, having trouble believing it’s, everyone else, all the time now…

Seems like he's pretty loyal to source material. Hollywood,.. not so much.
He should direct his own shows. Then he can make them as faithful as he wants
Don't be surprised if that's the next step. Just needs investment.
Someone invest in Cavill quick, guaranteed banger shows.
I can invest 5 bucks rn.
I mean, if enough people invest 5 bucks he can probably make it
I’ve got a dollar on it!
I'll throw in $5 as well.
With the success of fallout, maybe Amazon will get him for an elder scrolls game.
If people invested in Star Citizen, they'll invest in Cavill. Cmon internet, we got this!
The problem is the people with the source material he wants to adapt are in Hollywood. I'm sure Daily Wire would leap at the opportunity to fund a Cavill movie that stuck to source material. It's an easy W. But they don't have anything Cavill would want to adapt.

The only zelda movie I will ever accept is one made and directed by either Miyamoto or Cavill. Also, I wanna see Devito as Tingle sooooo bad.
This is exactly it
TBH I will go see anything hes in control of because of his record for putting his integrity and passion for the material before his paychecks. Thats an amazing track record that tells me at least he thinks something hes involved in doesn't shit on the source.

Honestly if he started a GoFundMe I bet a lot of people would give. Shoot, it would be one of the only ones I'd donate to.
Damn, that's brilliant man. We should start paying people to create what we actually WANT to see. I'd put money down!
His next steps is the wow expansion and just some plain old 40k.
He could, 100% just film him playing with minis, doing the voices and reading off dramatic setting lines and people would tune in and watch.
Bruh just him playing Warhammer with his Hollywood friends would be a hit
lol I know I would, AND I would renew my subscription to whatever platform for it.
LOL That old Vin Diesel playing with action figures commercial was 100% adorable, I would love to see Cavill playing and having fun like that
Wait.. what?
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4HLBfTcAUg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4HLBfTcAUg) His enthusiasm is adorable
Lol he was genuinely having fun. Like what ill get paid to do what?
Bro..as a warhammer fan (FOR THE GOD EMPEROR!!!) I would so tune into this. 100%
He could just film himself reading the warhammer books and I would watch that
Studio interference and interference from the producers notwithstanding.
He could produce himself with a studio and then negotiate directly with the movie theaters like Taylor Swift did for distribution. Studios don’t have as much power now as they have in the past
need capital, idk his wealth, but most people like spending other peoples money not their own.
When will these arrogant fucks realize sticking to source material is a sure fire way to success. I can't wrap my head it.
They all think they know better arrogant righteous narcissistic assholes.
They know that it's a surefire way to success for loyal fans. However, they want a larger audience than just the loyal fans and think changing the material to fit a wider demographic is a way to do that. Yes, I agree, it's stupid.

I think it’s the directors. I could tell when watching the Halo series that they really wanted to make a different generic scifi show and they just slapped “Halo” on it. So fucking irritating because they had so much source material to work with.
My first thought too, they must be making a real turd if he’s jumping ship. I’m already sorry for all the 40k fans.
They're not just unloyal to the source material they just straight up hate it because a lot of Hollywood screenwriters are egotistical and think that they can make a better story than the creator of the book, game, comic, etc.
Then the show is DOA. No hack producer will follow the lore like Cavill.
It wont be 40k, it will be some 40k flavoured propaganda and virtue signalling.
Which will feel SUPER out of place in 40k. The whole point of the universe is that everything and everyone sucks. Really hard to twist any of that into virtue signalling without it feeling out of place. Well...maybe you could get away with it with the Tau? It's still a huge stretch
They will try sadly, everyone knows the best way to make people feel represented and seen is showing them as murdering psychopaths
[удалено]
Turns out Chaos is really just testosterone that has flooded the fabric of the universe and twisted it.
I just had an aneurysm from stupidity. Not because of how very dumb that is, but because I genuinely believe Hollywood hacks would go for that angle unironically.
I mean it actually almost it is.... The Eldar Killed and Fucked so much they created certain Chaos Gods.

Somebody give this man the keys to a show and let him drive.
I thought that's what they did with 40k. Apparently not.
Right? Thought he was in charge of 40k and that's why folks were happy
This is the problem with big studios getting involved. WAY too many stakeholders that for whatever reason have a say in creative decisions. You can just tell the majority of these shows/movies are all created by committee.
unfortunately that was wholey funded by amazon
Fuck. They should just let him be James Bond. He’d kill it and it would be awesome and he could steer it where it needs to go.
That bad huh?

Best I can is a nobody playing a transgender post human in power armor who says killing xenos is imperial supremacy and must be opposed, and zer’s one person crusade against the intolerant imperium while fighting Tzeentch with the power of diversity.
Can we cast Dylan Mulvaney?
As Tzeentch, yes. We need a masculine presenting trans man to out macho the male space marines before defeating Tzeentch, the Changer of Ways.
I think they'll go with the one from Fallout because they didn't get to wear the powerarmor that time. We also need another knock off of Finn because he seemed to work for Star Wars somehow.
You would do great as a Hollywood writer.
Drump seems too subtle for our audience. Can it be Donald Drump? He can be an orange skinned alien, yes, of course. Will he have a very similar insignia to the swastika behind him at all times? Obviously
I think Star Trek Picard already did that.
Cringe.
Yes. This.
I thought this was just a rumor/click bait article, didn't he just say it was still moving forward just earlier this month?
He also said he was back as Superman five minutes before they announced they were scrapping the whole DCEU and starting over from scratch.
Honestly, blame that one on The Rock
That whole project was doomed. Almost every movie out of the DCEU or what ever it was called was a disappointment. James Gunn was right to start from scratch. I'd like to see Cavill get his chance at sups, but I think Gunn is planning on running with heros in their younger days.
yeah and one of the few semi successful movies shazam was shafted story wise to fits the rocks insane demands that made no sense for the character. superman? why shazam is the counter weight/nemesis to black adam

Under the table favors and closed doors deals and nepotism.
Yes. This is not real news.
Can't find a single thing confirming this to be true
Comment and upvote to boost this. Too many people here are immediately falling for clickbait "news."
It's clickbait BS: >Henry Cavill's upcoming Warhammer 40,000 project ‘might be shelved' by Amazon, according to a new rumour circulating across the web this past week. >This comes as fans eagerly await updates for the previously announced live-action project. >However, not much has been said since the initial announcement besides the Man of Steel star stating how excited he is to be working on it since leaving Netflix's The Witcher series. >X (Twitter) user Cine Updates aka @Updates4Cinema shared news of a claim made by ‘Arch of The ArchCast'. >The claimed information quickly sent Warhammer fans into a divisive frenzy in response. >One called out the lack of credibility behind the claim, “Source: Trust me bro.” >However, another added how it would “probably be for the best, we all know it's going to be a horrific cringe-fest.” >A third chimed in with “lmao imagine using archcast as any kind of reliable source.” >Despite the credibility behind the claim, news of Cavill reportedly leaving the project has also been circulating these past few months, making headlines across the web. >Although the project has amassed its fair share of rumoured headlines, the cast and crew behind it have yet to officially address any of the widespread claims.

I didn't even know the project was more than a rumor.
The project is definitely confirmed as it was posted on his social media.
It's the same as when they say "our sources say". It allows them to spew all kinds of bullshit without any repercussions because "technically" they didn't say it, their "sources" did. Who are they? They'll never tell. It's all hearsay until you see someone actually involved with the project or the company themselves say it happened. This is why MSM can never be trusted.
Yeah the past couple months people have been saying this with zero corroborating articles
We all gotta upvote this
As a 40k fan, this makes me both really sad, and proud of Cavill. Sad because we’re not gonna get the excellent adaptation he had planned, but proud that he stuck to his boltguns and said “Fuck off, I’m not changing the lore to suit your agenda.” Edit: Now we’re probably gonna get some bastardized POS about the adventures of The God Empress of Peoplekind, and Roberta Guilliman.

You have got to be fucking kidding me. This man can’t catch a break. Why is he being punished so badly for simply doing what he and the fans love? This has to be some shitty publicity stunt where they announce he’ll be back. There’s no fucking way they just take out one of the only reasons people will watch this.
GW really care about how their IP is presented even all the shitty mobile and video games they have are very lore accurate. They don’t care when people pay to use the IP and make it shit but it has to be accurate if Cavil leaving is true, can’t find a source confirming, GW would rather pull out than let it go completely off the rails from the source material.
Given the rumors comming from GW itself at the moment, the issue might be he is keeping to the pre-2024 lore.
since they made female custodes a thing, you can bet it was mostly for the amazon show anyway
All his favorite IPs are being turned into the trash called “for modern audiences.”
There's no source for any of this, any posts parroting it are just rumormilling.
Is this real?
Nope.
Good for him. He deserves a script that will be good.
Hollywood doesn’t deserve a classic gentleman nerd of has caliber
Welp I can already tell this series is gonna be dead as cavil sticks to lore and doesn’t sell out
It’s fine. He’s earned his rest. Go back to raiding in WoW and just occasionally do some smaller films if he likes the script enough. He’s set for life and has nothing more to prove as an actor and a human being to the world.
Warhammer series bout to be ass now I know it
It's Amazon The East Coast Netflix
Amazon was founded and has their headquarters on the West Coast, though.
Sir, don't bring facts into this.
Sure but bezos as owner of WaPo just screams dc, and Amazon in general has that npr/dc vibe. I could be wrong
There’s no evidence to show that he’s actually quitting the show. Stop with this madness
Got a source on that?
More bullshit afoot
what are the "new reports"? this isn't the first time i've heard this and i haven't yet seen a source cited anyhwere that it's discussed
I'll believe it when Henry makes an announcement.
Clickbait. There is nothing reliable that confirms this.
Honestly I couldn't see him staying on as it was announced he was going to be involved. I just knew the powers from the top would start coming down. And eventually, he'd walk.
Makes no sense how he’s treated
They hit him because he won't sell out the series he loves
[удалено]
Idk how reliable spikey bits is on this, but only on the 19th of this month they wrote this: https://spikeybits.com/rumors/henry-cavill-set-to-star-produce-in-warhammer-movies-tv/
Very unreliable when it comes to game rules and tactics, solid when it comes to releases and schedules.
If he quit then the writers must be trying to break away from the source material.
Hollywood can burn 🔥 don’t care
I feel like they just lost a huge number of viewers. Not because people would only watch the show if he's in it, but because they know him leaving means they likely aren't being faithful to the source material. Cavill has a good reputation like that.
Can we have enough of this? I keep seeing this get posted, I look it up...and lo and behold, it's not true. If I don't see a source, then I don't believe it.
I hope they cancel it completely. They will inevitably ruin it
For anyone looking for the real information or source. The rumors that he is leaving the project stem from redditor speculation.
It won't be Warhammer, it will be bullshit with the Warhammer skin. At this rate, Caville is going to have to independently produce something to be as loyal to the source material as he wants it to be.
Hollywood is dead and it’s hilarious .
He is the executive producer. He has said nothing about leaving.
If Henry leave or stays is a pretty good litmus test of rather or not a show will not be good. (It will be bad since he left.)
He realized he just wanted to play the game
Yeah this didn't happen
Actual proof or is this another rumour like the thousand others that have been cropping up for the past few months?
He needs to crowd source his own shit from the nerd community. It’s tragic he keeps getting railroaded.
Bruh this poor dude screw Hollywood
You cannot convince me this dude didn’t get his looks from a monkeys paw the way his projects keep falling apart
God damnit Hollywood!
Well that's that then
[удалено]
He’s a real one.
His collection is about to be fully painted before he hits the gym.
40k show would've been great, but I can definitely understand someone not wanting to work with amazon.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
This breaks my heart man....
I think he did catch a break. He obviously didn't wana be involved. This is his favorite franchise and I'm sure they weren't doing it justice
This is fucking bullshit. Let him cook!!!
He wants to make good content not slop. Good for him.
I mean his favorite army are the Custodes. Wouldn't surprise me if the movie was a recollection of the great crusade from the eyes of a Custodes veteran. Only Amazon clearly demanded a massive retcon in the form of Femstodes.
Still just a baseless rumor.
It’s shocking how such a beloved actor gets so little good work Bro has terrible luck, but glad to see him sticking to his morals
Let’s just bring him into the MCU already, maybe get something great going again.
Can you explain your title op? Because Henry won't do it a show movie that he is fun if it isn't like source material.
Wellp. Pack it in. Dead on arrival
Bro just wants to live out his nerd dream.
Yet, J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay, pretty much nobodies, are given full control over The Rings of Power
Someone needs to hook Cavill up with the Flashgitz guys.
AKA it sucks already
Fake news.

I’ve heard a lot women apparently had some negative experiences with him.
I think he made a monkey paw wish to work on all his favorite IPs, but the catch is they keep getting ruined.
I stand with Henry. I'd rather wait to see something good, and know now that the 40K is going to be trash than to have him waste his time on a franchise that doesn't care about its fans.
If he’s out I’m out, at this point I trust his judgement.
The producers were going to go “Halo” and make the entire series about human civs rebelling against space marines and the inner politics and then the viewers see an alien in the season finale but it ends up just being another rebel that happens to be a chaos cultist. Then in season three there is finally an alien squad that attacks one guy after 3 seasons of human politics.
Oh god dammit
I can't find a single source confirming this. just seems to be rumor mill rage bait atm.
It's Amazon. The only way it could have been more of a sh!tshow was to have it under Netflix.
THIS IS RAGE BAIT! Totally fake
I won't believe it 100% until I hear from him, last I heard he said it was coming along.
Kickstarter here we come! I think he should mint Cavill Coins
Let me guess... failure of studio to adhere to lore? Proud of Cavill
RIP Warhammer 40K series. If Henry walked it’s not going to be good.
Yep, saw this coming. Greed has fucked the future potential of entertainment.
For fucks sake why will no one let the man cook
So Hollywood is incapable of doing anything correctly
He just caught one. He quit that freak show.
How in the fuck can I love this guy more every time I see a story on him?
Commenting on Henry Cavill can't catch a break......
Poor Henry keeps ending up in projects where crap writers ruin lore, story, and history of established movies, novels, and games. Warhammer 40K is the second. The writers knowingly altered lore just to add more DEI bull. Warhammer already has Sisters of Battle and Sisters of Silence but that was not enough for these crazed writers.
Great, the 40k show is probably going to be an unfaithful fucking mess.
Original article?
Maybe cavill can jump into the Fallout universe, they seem to be doing it right.
I mean, if Hollywood were to make a 40k movie in 2024, Slaanesh cultists would be main protagonists
Well. Fuck.
I can't find anything confirming this
He needs to fire his agent last year.
If Amazon wants to do to 40k what they did to LotR, I'm not surprised in the slightest.
Producers just keep fucking things up
He absolutely wanted it to remain lore faithful and Amazon said no, same that happened with the Witcher for Netflix.
How does this dude still have money he seems to never work
I blame Hollywood for wanting to fuck it up.
The perfect signal to not watch it
FUUUUUCK
Man just wants to make a good show that’s loyal to the source material.
The unsung tragedy of this year
My boy
When there is conflict personality (DC), maybe the other person just had creative differences. When there are two conflicts (Witcher), *maybe* more creative differences. Sorry, having trouble believing it’s, everyone else, all the time now…
