When does Warhammer get its movie?
Raimi to Direct Warcraft Movie
Raimi to Direct Warcraft Movie
I am curious how they are going to proceed. How do you capture the essence of Warcraft without coming across as a LotR rip-off (which it is)? At least a Warhammer film could go very dark, as befits a movie made about that series. Warcraft doesn't really have that option as it is more fantasy-light.Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. and Legendary Pictures announced today that Sam Raimi has signed on to direct the eagerly-anticipated major motion picture based on Blizzard Entertainment's award-winning Warcraft universe. Raimi has, in the course of his career, clearly demonstrated a genius for developing and adapting existing fictional universes for mainstream audiences while staying true to the spirit of the original content.
