It’s been a rollercoaster ride lately for Space Marine 2 fans and Warhammer 40K followers. Henry Cavill’s much-hyped project with the franchise involving Amazon seems to have hit a dead end, with no news or updates.
Meanwhile, the new Space Marine game seems to be coming along nicely. And now, it looks like Amazon is throwing fans an unexpected lifeline, unrelated to Cavill’s project.
Space Marine 2’s Titus Will Be Under Amazon’s Spotlight
Cavill’s Warhammer project of his dreams might not be happening due to licensing issues, but that doesn’t mean Amazon is completely done with the franchise.
Deadline recently reported that the mega-company is working on a new anthology series titled Secret Level in collaboration with Tim Miller and his Blur Studio, the same creative minds behind Love, Death, and Robots on Netflix.

Warning: contains spoilers for Series 4 of Unforgotten
It’s been two years since the last season of ITV’s hit crime drama Unforgotten, and at long last it’s back on our screens.
After that shocking Series 4 finale, in which we said a heartbreaking goodbye to Dci Cassie Stuart (aka the incredible Nicola Walker), we’ve got plenty of questions about the Series 5 cast.
In this latest series, when a body is found in a boarded-up fireplace, the team gets to work trying to identify who the victim is, and how long they’ve been there. We also discover that the person filling Cassie’s very large detective shoes as Sunny’s new boss-slash-bestie will be the prickly Dci Jessica James, who doesn’t exactly make a great first impression.
Unlike the previous four series, Series 5 of Unforgotten will also be made available as a bingeable box-set on Itvx as...
