In the “news I didn’t ever expect to hear” category today, the production studio behind Amazon’s “The Man in the High Castle” series – Big Light Productions – will be bringing the Warhammer 40K universe to life with a new Live-Action series.
The series is reportedly called “Eisenhorn” and will focus on Gregor Eisenhorn, an Inquisitor who starred in a series of books by Dan Abnett. The news release from Games Workshop and Big Light has stated that Eisenhorn will be based on the mentioned books, Xenos, Malieus and Hereticus.
“The appeal to me, from the moment I started writing him, was his complexity,” Abnett said of Eisenhorn in a statement. “He is not the simple, ruthless hero he appears to be. His battle with the Warp leads him into dark places and forces him to question his duty, his understanding of the Imperium, and his own identity. With Eisenhorn, it’s not just the adventures, and they are certainly vivid: it’s the journey he takes to the very limits of what he is and what it means to be loyal.”
Big Light Productions chief executive and The Man in the High Castle’s showrunner, Frank Sptnitz, will also be in charge of Eisenhorn with Emily Feller as executive producer. Games Workshop and Big Light has not stated when we’ll get to see the brutal universe of Warmhammer 40K come to life or what network will be involved.
The Warhammer 40K franchise has spawned a couple of cinematic stories in the past, Dan Abnett wrote for 2010’s Ultramarines: A Warhammer 40K Movie, which stared Terence Stamp and the late John Hurt, and last year Games Workshop stated that they would be developing an animated series called Angels of Death.
