Henry Cavill, known for playing Superman, is taking on a new role as a hero in the live-action version of the animated series Voltron. Filming for the project has officially started, and Cavill, along with the rest of the cast, is ready to step in front of the camera. Fans also got an exciting sneak peek behind the scenes, giving us a first look at this highly anticipated film.
A behind-the-scenes photo from the Voltron reboot has revealed the official logo for Amazon’s live-action adaptation. Producer Bob Koplar shared the exciting update, saying, “Cameras are rolling!” The logo combines a nostalgic feel with a modern touch, hinting at what fans can expect from this version.

The movie will likely follow the animated series’ storyline, where five teenagers are taken from Earth and end up in the middle of an intergalactic battle. They pilot five giant robotic lions and must learn to work as a team to form the powerful warrior, Voltron, and save the galaxy.

The Voltron movie has brought together an amazing cast, including Henry Cavill, Daniel Quinn-Toye, Sterling K. Brown, Rita Ora, Alba Baptista, Samson Kayo, John Kim, and Tim Griffin. Plans for a live-action version have been around since 2005, but the project faced many delays. Now, with Rawson Marshall Thurber, the director of Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story and Red Notice, leading the way, the movie is finally moving forward. Thurber has promised to blend fresh ideas with a touch of nostalgia, much like the recently revealed logo.
This movie will introduce a brand-new team of pilots. We’ve redesigned Voltron for a live-action story while keeping the heart and spirit of the original alive.

Henry Cavill may no longer play Superman or Geralt of Rivia from The Witcher, but he has some exciting projects lined up. Besides starring in Voltron, Cavill will take on the lead role in a reboot of the sci-fi action series Highlander, directed by John Wick’s Chad Stahelski. He’s also teaming up with Amazon again for the long-awaited adaptation of the popular wargame Warhammer 40,000. Cavill shared his excitement about the project on social media, confirming the series is moving forward and hinting at what fans can expect.
My amazing team and I have been working closely with the talented folks at Games Workshop to bring the Warhammer world to life. We’ve spent hours brainstorming ideas, exploring the massive world of Warhammer, and diving into its rich history. After a lot of hard work, we’ve found the perfect place to start building this universe, and both Amazon and Games Workshop are on board with our plan. For now, we’re keeping the details a secret, but stay tuned—there’s much more to share soon!
