I have liked this actor from a long time ago just a straight up man and so grounded. This is what actors should be classy and genuine. Thanks for standing your ground like a real man.

Me and my dad used to watch the tv show together, great memories.

Cavill was so good as Charles Brandon in The Tudors. I highly recommend watching that series.

Love his comment about taking big swings. We need more of that energy coming out of Hollywood.

Cavill to retain his interests growing up through school - as very handsome guy - is no small thing. It shows a tremendous amount of courage and independence of thought he's possessed his whole life.

Very nice interview clip. Thank you.

Can't wait to see what Henry Cavill has been cooking up in the world of Warhammer.

So excited for both these projects

I loved the Highlander show with Adrian Paul. I used to look forward to watching that after school back in the 90s.

Thank god for Henry

The "so it can be faithful" line owww I felt that

I hope (and judging Henry’s respect for the Highlander story) that Adrian Paul will be part of a new film/series

One thing I love about Cavil, is he is the same nerd as me, born in the same time. I most certainly lack the looks :D

He’s already psyched for this!😎

Highlander was my fav movie for ages, I'm apprehensive about a remake but glad they got Henry on the project. Let's hope its another classic!

I love how his face reaction 2:27 when he said so it could be faithful😂 You are the goat!!

I watched them shooting the Highlander series several times in Vancouver Canada

I’m really looking forward to seeing all the films Herny has been involved in lately they all sound so call. Have been a fan of highlander for a long time and I feel safe with Henry being a part of the retelling

Pretty sure the first meeting for Warhammer was something like, "So. The fired you because you cared too much about the source material? That's exactly what we've been waiting for."

Im so happy for him!! ❤🎉

I am such a fan of Cavill, my wife just loves him and i cant wait for these two, he is the best....

the way this guy said "is key to me" im no warhammer fan outside total war, but damn im excited.

Great to see Henry back on this channel. His previous appearance is the most viewed on this channel. ❤

Highlander is not JUST the story... It's also the editing and the music.

I dont know much about Warhammer but I am excited for this serie. I have seen some gamplays and it looks a great, the lore seem pretty huge as well

The movies could not really get very deep into it, but the TV series really nailed the horrible sadness and grief that a centuries long life could bring.

I have to say this man could be inspiration for a lot of people and even colleagues. I dont really know about other celebrities speaking openly about their what we would call "nerd" hobbies. Because when he then goes in front of camera, you can sort of feel sense of he really understands the character that he plays. we can all aggree i think, that if anything then Warhammer will be as faithfhul as a series/movie can be and that all the fans will go and see it to support the project like that in the future.

Je suis une excited. Merci pour la sharing.

That is true…nothing closer to my heart than Warhammer ❤…*remembers his girlfriend might see this clip and backpedals*

So as Henry also talked about elemtne from the TV Series, but can't say too much! So if the TV Series is Canon then he can't be playing Connor! Do you think he will want to do 2/3 films?? And very glad there will be the iconic Queen music in it.

I do believe Henry is the living epitomy of when one door closes another or many others open, particularly if you don't slam a door on your way out....I can't tell you how thrilled I am about Warhammer

Can you imagine how scary it must be for him after what happened with the Witcher? Like, he must know that if it goes bad, even through no fault of his own, that fans will see his proximity to two franchises that didn't work out well, and they will run with that. The pressure of that must be a lot. I can imagine being a true fan of something and having it "go bad" quote/unquote "on your watch" must be so much worse than if something goes bad that you aren't invested in. Really hope it goes well. Never really been a fan of his per se but I really respect what he want's out of these things and I hope that admirable quality in him gets rewarded by something he is proud of.

"So it can be faithful" some serious shade in that look

It’d be interesting to have a beer with Henry and just talk Warhammer!

If Henry does a Highlander remake/reboot that would be great ❤❤❤

Cavill is a class act. I've been played 40K since 89 and still have my season 2 highlander trenchcoat. This is a very peasant circumstance in film right now, for me personally.

Cannot wait for those two movies

Cavill is one of us... God bless him!!!

The part about "Big swings" really describes 80% of new movies. So many people play it safe out of fear for bad reviews, but it's much better to try something big and fail than to not even try in the first place. And the worst thing someone can describe your movie as is "It was ok, but I don't need to see it again." and then never speak of it ever again.

Great interview Henry cavil sure will nail highlander

Actorazo Henry!

Ooh Highlander. I mean for me, Adrian Paul will always be The Highlander (sorry Christopher Lambert). You got so much more from Duncan Macleod because it was a TV series and so you had more time to enjoy the character. I always feared that Connor was meant to be "the one" in the films and so addressing Duncan's supposed inevitable death was something I never wanted to reach, but still watched every week regardless. But listening to Henry speak about the show, and realising how much he reminds me of Josh Strife Hayes, I actually found myself excited at the prospect of it returning in some way... especially since I am hoping that when the TV show was mentioned Henry said he couldn't say too much, this means Adrian Paul will be involved in even just a small way!

WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you Cavill!! We trust you.

He would make an amazing Ciaphas Cain, heroic looking, has great comedic timing but whoever he plays i'm sure it will be amazing.

I was born in '75 and was around 11 years old when the original Highlander film dropped... I remember my Dad taking me to see that film at that age, and it changed my life because it felt so much like He-Man the cartoon I loved.. Christopher Lambert was so unassuming of a warrior, and played the role so convincingly... the line "LOTS OF DIFFERENT PLACES" still lingers in my mind to this day whenever people ask where I am from... Cavill was born in 1983, he would have been 3 years old at the the time Highlander the original flim launched.. but still a child born of the same era as the film. He mentions the series likely because he would have been 12 years old at the time, much like me at 11 years old, it would have impacted him more at or around that age, when the imagination met reality, where "honorable warriors" and "real men" were becoming one in the same to our young minds. Cavill has a love for good film, and rich stories with realistic fantasy character warriors.... I appreciate his connection to any film and his loyalty to the portrayal of the origins of these characters. Any thing he touches if given the freedom to run, becomes Gold and a guaranteed film I will take my son to see in a theater. Great interview this. Thank You.

I’m soooooo looking forward to Warhammer. And honestly I know nothing about Highlander, but Cavill’s got me excited for that, too 😆

Any project that Henry endorses now will have us fans excited because we know hes a source material man. true to the fans

If there is one project that I am extremely hopeful for it is the Henry Cavill led Warhammer project, given his passion for the source material and his eagerness to stick close to it......I just cross my fingers for it to land like I think it will because seeing 40K put to screen with a healthy budget and big names involved is top tier wishlist stuff 🤞🤞

He's such a class act

Such a class act!

This is the one movie I look so much forward to, at the same level as I did over 20 years ago when I waited for the Fellowship of the Ring. I knew then that Peter Jackson would deliver, just as I know Henry Cavill will.

Henry could sit and read a restaurant menu into a camera and I'd watch it on loop!! 😍

Very excited in our home about Henry and Warhammer. Seriously, there is so much to the Warhammer universe to draw from. The Vaults of Terra?9 or the Horus Heresy (how many books in that series?). Henry would be an excellent Eisenhorn-I won’t believe he’s dead without until we see a body. There are awesome characters and epic battles. All this is set in an ever expanding 40k universe. There is something for everyone. Kinda like the Marvel universe. This is going to be fun.

"So it can be faithful"... Yep, we know why he left The Witcher alright 😂 Good on him! Nothing like keeping accurate lore for all us nerds out there!

2:20 is why i have so much respect for this man and the projects he has been working on. I'm a BIG Halo fan, but seeing how the showrunners for the Paramount+ series have just massacred one of the most amazing opportunities to bring Halo back into the spotlight of not only current and old fans, but also a completely new audience is one of the most depressing things i've seen come from a video game adaptation. I hope Henry Cavill can make the Warhammer fan base happy. With the passion that we have heard from him in these interviews and the stories told about him working on the Witcher series, I'm confident that he will do well as the big man in charge of Warhammer.

Im stoked for a highlander movie.

Thank god he acknowledged the tv show.
