Henry Cavill Praises Space Marine 2 as “Awesome”

Henry Cavill has described Space Marine 2 as “the mutt’s [nuts],” a British slang term meaning excellent, and shared his deep admiration for the Warhammer 40K franchise.

In a recent Instagram post, the longtime Warhammer enthusiast expressed his excitement about Space Marine 2, stating, “Seriously, though, they’ve done pretty well, eh? I couldn’t complete the campaign on Angel of Death by myself (or at least didn’t have the patience to do it solo!) which I love!”

He particularly highlighted the game’s PvP mode, saying, “Loving the PvP and am really looking forward to it growing and expanding – It has real potential to be absolutely awesome! Disclaimer: I know nothing about game development, so the kind of dreams I have may be rather difficult to implement!”

Cavil’s thoughts on Space Marine 2 have been eagerly anticipated, given his status as a prominent superfan within the Warhammer 40K community.

As a lifelong player of the Warhammer 40K tabletop game and its rich lore, Cavill has repeatedly expressed his passion for the franchise. Moreover, there are strong rumors that he will star in an upcoming Warhammer 40K movie, playing a significant role.

The exact character he will portray, or the specific narrative focus of the film, remains uncertain. Some fans speculate that Cavill might take on the role of a Space Marine, while others argue he is ideally suited for the Emperor of Mankind, given his physical characteristics that align with depictions from the 40K backstory.

Additionally, there are theories suggesting he could portray Horus Lupercal, the Emperor’s son, who famously led a faction of the Space Marines in rebellion against him. Regardless of the character he ultimately plays, Cavill’s involvement is likely to attract significant attention toward the Warhammer movie.
