The 'Cavill as Arthas' hypetrain now appears to be on full steam as popular digital artist 'Bosslogic' (who also did the art for the Assassin's Creed Valhalla reveal before this year) had its style with one of the pictures that Cavill posted on Instragram, and the upshot is staggering to say the least. Based on Cavill's reaction on Instagram he's impressed with the photoshopped result equally well and fifty-fifty tagged Blizzard in the post.

Unfortunately, the data above is only speculation at this point. A 2d Warcraft movie has even so to be announced. At that place's no doubt, however, that, being the gaming nerd that Cavill is, he would rock as Arthas in a movie revolving the events around Arthas Menethil and The Lich Male monarch.
