The World of Warcraft movie - an adaptation of World of Warcraft - is in production (in fact, it recently finished shooting). At the moment, we don't know many details about this movie, directed by Duncan Jones, as details are being kept firmly under wraps.
In an interview with IGN, the actor Ben Foster spoke about his role in the movie, a mage named Medivh:
"The character in Warcraft that I play is named Medivh. He's a mage, which is essentially a sorcerer. He came up in a time protecting an area, and the way he protected this area was through magic. As peace returned to this land he took a break. He hung up his staff, so to speak, or let his guns get dusty. We meet him as his friends are returning asking for his help in a battle".
In the same conversation, Foster also admitted he was impressed by Jones' ability to not only manage a videogame adaptation, but also keeping the film balanced in its portrayal of the big war: "What's exciting about Duncan Jones' take on this video game is that it shows both sides of the war. It shows both sides of a conflict, which is exciting to me. It's not just a video game turned into a movie. It's asking, hopefully, an important question of, where do we limit our compassion for what we consider to be the bad guys?"
The World of Warcraft movie is set to be released in early 2016, after it was pushed back late last year. We can't wait to know more about it.
