===Film=== Games Workshop announced that Exile Studios would produce a [[Computer-generated imagery|CGI]] movie based upon the ''[[Bloodquest]]'' graphic novel; a trailer was released, but the project was discontinued and Exile Studios disbanded.<ref>{{cite web|author=tsabo |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpEY630UaMg |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/TpEY630UaMg| archive-date=11 December 2021 |url-status=live|title=Bloodquest Trailer |publisher=YouTube |date=4 May 2006 |access-date=11 February 2013}}{{cbignore}}</ref> For the 25th anniversary [[Games Day]], Games Workshop released (for limited sale) a short movie entitled ''Inquisitor'',<ref name="journal.transformativeworks.org">{{cite journal|url=http://journal.transformativeworks.org/index.php/twc/article/view/178|title=Fan filmmaking and copyright in a global world: Warhammer 40,000 fan films and the case of Damnatus|first=John|last=Walliss|date=7 January 2010|journal=Transformative Works and Cultures|volume=5|doi=10.3983/twc.2010.0178|via=journal.transformativeworks.org|doi-access=free}}</ref> using clips and footage that was created as a pitch to G.W. for a film deal. There were also trailers for two other films, "Hive Infestation" and "Blood for the Blood God". "Hive Infestation" pitted Space Wolf terminators against a genestealer cult infestation of a hive world. "Blood for the Blood God" was the second trailer released, and portrayed orks and Dark Angel marines fighting along with an inquisitor, much in the style of the [[Final Liberation|Epic 40,000 video game]] cut scenes, but little information was given on this short film aside from a shot of a berserker of Khorne (available in YouTube but flagged by Games Workshop, removing the movie).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/blood-for-the-blood-god|title=Blood for the Blood God|date=10 May 2017 |access-date=2 March 2018}}</ref> Another one was [[Damnatus]], a German fan film developed over four years. Games Workshop announced in July 2007 that they would not give permission for the film to be released because of issues between Anglo-American [[copyright]] and Continental European [[Droit d'auteur]].<ref name="journal.transformativeworks.org"/> In 2010, Games Workshop, with [[Codex Pictures]], released a 70-minute downloadable film called ''[[Ultramarines: The Movie|Ultramarines]]''. The screenplay was written by [[Black Library]] author [[Dan Abnett]]. [[Terence Stamp]], [[Sean Pertwee]] and [[John Hurt]] headed the cast of voice actors.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.scifimoviepage.com/upcoming/previews/ultramarines.html |title=Ultramarines: A Warhammer 40,000 Movie (2010) - Preview |publisher=Sci-Fi Movie Page |date=13 December 2010 |access-date=11 February 2013}}</ref> On 5 August 2021, Games Workshop launched [[Warhammer Plus]], a subscription service that provides access to exclusive Warhammer-themed shows and animations, as well as other content such as classic issues of the ''White Dwarf'' magazine and exclusive miniatures.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Marshall|first=Cass|date=23 June 2021|title=Warhammer Plus streaming sub will include animation, free minis, and White Dwarf|url=https://www.polygon.com/22547359/warhammer-plus-streaming-service-launch-details|access-date=7 September 2021|website=Polygon|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Warhammer+|url=https://warhammerplus.com/|access-date=7 September 2021|website=Warhammer+}}</ref>
