Warhammer 40,000 is getting the animated series treatment at Amazon MGM Studios, with animation being produced by Blur Studio, the shop behind Prime Video's adult animated anthology Secret Level. "We have begun work on a full animated Warhammer 40,000 series featuring our Space Marines - Deathwatch," the report reads. Games Workshop launched Warhammer 40,000 in 1987, moving the setting 40,000 years into the future, where humanity wages war against aliens, gods and demons. Its 15-episode first season ran across different game worlds, one of them Warhammer 40,000, with Blur handling production and development. The animated series runs parallel to a live-action Warhammer 40,000 series in development at Amazon.
