On BlizzCon 2006 everything started, but on Comic Con 2013 everything started for real. They really took their time with this movie project. After that teaser mood trailer that only a handful of people seen and announcement that shooting starts in early 2014 it was finally made official.
Production Weekly posted on their Twitter that Legendary Pictures has setup offices at Canadian Movie Pictures Park (CMPP) Studio in Vancouver and they are getting ready for Warcraft movie shooting starting on January 13th.
Also in recent split between Legendary and Warner Bros. like in any marriage they divided the properties. Some of the latest “almost done with production” movies that also had WB in financial connection will still be done together, but some properties that Legendary financed mostly by themselves WB gave up on them and that includes movies like Seventh Son, Mass Effect and Warcraft.
New partner Universal Pictures gladly took those under their wing as new distributors. Now in next months I hope we will start getting more concrete news about the project like official confirmation on castings and maybe a story hints, cuz January 13th is just around the corner :)
Maybe I should hurry up with the new website I’ve been working on last 2 weeks…
