The Man in the High Castle creator is developing the first big-budget live-action TV series adaptation of the wargame empire’s hugely popular board games, miniatures and novels. The show, titled Eisenhorn, is set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, where "mankind teeters on the brink of annihilation," according to Deadline. "While humanity’s armies wage unending war across a million battlefields, in the darkness, a secret conflict rages – fought by the agents of the Imperial Inquisition. Drawing from sci-fi, fantasy and crime genres, Eisenhorn will see Inquisitor Gregor Eisenhorn and his band of investigators fight to thwart the monstrous schemes of aliens, heretics and daemons before mankind’s doom is sealed." No network or streaming platform is attached to Eisenhorn.
