According to Warcraft director Duncan Jones, the film based on Blizzard's fantasy IP is "pretty much a finished movie," even if we're not going to see it until June 10 of next year.

"I've got to see [it], I know that it's good. I've shown it to people that I trust, whose opinions I respect, and who are honest with me, and they've said it's good," Jones told io9. "So now I just clench my fists and grit my teeth, and wait for everyone else to see it."

Perhaps the most interesting thing to come from the interview is the news that, if the film is a success, it's likely to be the first part of a trilogy.

"If it goes well, I am pretty convinced that Chris Metzen from Blizzard and I have a very good idea of what story we could tell in three films, given the opportunity."

"If I can squeeze in Mute before Warcraft even comes out, then that would give me my kind of 'little indie' I wanted to make, and then I'd love to jump back into this," the director added.
