'World Of Warcraft' Movie Plot And Characters Discussed! Director Duncan Jones Hopes For A Possibility Of A Sequel

| By

The "World of Warcraft" movie is getting closer to reality as it nears its release date on March 11, 2016.

While the fans are patiently waiting for the movie adaptation of the popular video game, director Duncan Jones granted an interview with 2p to discuss the film's plot and possible sequel.

"From the moment I first talked to Blizzard, the plan was to start our film with the first time Orcs met Humans," he said when asked to give out more details on the movie.

"First contact! I think that for a world with so much newness to explain, this was a wise choice, especially when so many people in our audience may not know anything about Warcraft... it was important that some of our characters would be seeing the world fresh as well, and that the audience could see the situation through their eyes," Duncan explained after being asked if he'd ever considered telling the story of the Burning Legion's invasion instead of the first Human and Orc conflict."

Furthermore, Jones also explained how the upcoming "World of Warcraft" movie plot is going to be told and how the characters of the adaptation will be interpreted in the big screen.

"A Warcraft film should not be about a good race of humans battling an evil race of Orcs!" He insisted. "Warcraft should be about heroes on both sides trying to avoid a conflict, when villains leave them no choice."

He concluded the interview by first comparing the "World of Warcraft" to the fantasy franchise movie "Lord of the Rings" then hinting that "WOW" is possibly going to have a sequel if well received by fans.

"Peter Jackson did a magnificent job of setting the table: for Tolkein's universe with his first Lord of the Rings film," he explained "I know that my job in this first film is to establish certain characters, places and culture while telling a story that a broad audience can be excited by!"

Adding, "Hopefully, if I have done my job right, people will want to know and see more! There is certainly plenty more to tell! I would love to be part of that process of expanding on the lore that makes up Warcraft, but it will all depend on what you, the audience, think of our first film!"
