Blizzard Entertainment has announced yesterday, October 1st, in a tweet, the official release date for their movie Warcraft. The film was first announced at E3 back in 2006.
We’re pleased to announce that @Legendary Pictures’ WARCRAFT will be released by @UniversalPics on December 18, 2015.

The film is being directed by Duncan Jones, and is rumored to feature actor Colin Farrell. Spider-Man director Sam Raimi was at one point involved, though he would later drop out, claiming Blizzard “mismanaged” the film. It is believed to have a budget that exceeds $100 million.
The plot is largely unknown, but there have been past reports that tell us it could have “time travel and alien worlds”. Production on the film will begin in January. Some are excited and others think this is a huge mistake. Guess we will just have to wait and find out.
PLEASE BE ABOUT ARTHAS!
