Henry Cavill teases "secret project" that appears to be related to Mass Effect Enhance! News by Matt Wales Reporter Updated on 25 Feb 2021 43 comments Henry Cavill - he of The Witcher, Superman, and muscular PC-building hijinks fame - has teased a new "secret project" that very much appears to be Mass Effect related. Hints of the mysterious project first appeared on Cavill's Instagram page, where, beneath a black and white shot of himself enjoying some quality hair and makeup time on the set of The Witcher, he wrote, "Secret project? Or just a handful of paper with random words on it.... Guess you'll have to wait and see." The papers in question loitered in the corner of the frame, with just a couple of dozen extremely blurry words visible - none of which appeared to reveal very much at all at first glance. However, cunning sleuths over at Gamepressure discovered the blur could be successfully unfuzzied by running the image through Focus Magic - a software tool predominantly designed to remove unwanted blur from home snaps rather than reveal closely guarded industry secrets. Henry Cavill and the Pages of Unrevealed Truth. The end result was, it's fair to say, a bit of a surprise, revealing words such as Cerberus, Reaper, Geth, and Tali'Zorah - all unmistakably from the Mass Effect universe, and, as Gamepressure also noted, all forming a paragraph taken directly from the Mass Effect 3 Wikipedia page.

Words related to a potential speaking part for Cavill in the new Mass Effect game? Or perhaps it's something else entirely - research for Cavill's first attempts at Mass Effect fan-fiction, or simply a crafty, and knowingly nerdy, ruse. Time will presumably tell. But until then, there's the small matter of Netflix's second season of The Witcher, which is currently filming for a tentative 2021 release.
