The internet has been ablaze lately with the revelation of BioWare's new Mass Effect game, which will seemingly continue the story of Commander Shepard (at least since it's set to be a direct sequel to Mass Effect 3). Other than that, we know little about BioWare's extensive plans for the series, with some hoping that the space saga will be adapted into a movie or television series some day. However, an interesting clue recently popped up that Man of Steel and The Witcher star Henry Cavill could potentially be teasing something related to the Mass Effect universe.

Henry Cavill recently took to Instagram to post a blurred script, teasing his next project. GamePressure (who probably moonlight as wizards) were able to sharpen the image, revealing key words like Reaper, Cerberus, Tali'Zorah and Geth - terms that immediately relate to the Mass Effect series. Cavill has not confirmed or denied these reports yet, but it looks likely that he will be attached to something Mass Effect-related in the future.
Another eagle-eyed member of GamePressure deduced that the text Cavill is holding is actually a blurb taken from Mass Effect 3's Wikipedia page, which reads as follows:
"Following the events on Tuchanka and a failed coup by Cerberus to take over the Citadel, the quarians offer their support to the Alliance if Shepard helps them reclaim their homeworld, Rannoch, from the geth.
Assisted by a quarian, either Tali’Zorah or Admiral Daro’Xen, Shepard boards a geth dreadnought and rescues a captive geth unit, either Legion or a facsimile occupied by a geth virtual intelligence (VI), then disables the Reaper control signal over the get."
As for what this project actually is, your guess is as good as ours. Some have speculated that Cavill will provide his voice or likeliness to the upcoming announced Mass Effect game, and he's simply brushing up on his history of the series (of which most people know, Cavill is also a fellow gamer). The other theory is that EA and BioWare are gearing up for a live-action adaptation of the Mass Effect series, perhaps a movie or television show. Whatever it is, we'll only know at a later stage.
