For instance, I was told that we saw a baby version of Go’El, but he will be of adult age and go by Thrall in the planned reboot.

There may be older versions of characters seen in the original movie as per sources. The soft reboot will focus on a new set of characters, not entirely ignoring the continuity of the first film but not being completely beholden to it either. Our sources have indicated that, indeed, the studio has elected to go with a soft reboot.

Staying RelevantĪs Warcraft 2 fell apart, discussions began internally about whether the studio and Blizzard wanted to reboot the franchise or continue with the established characters, actors, and lore from the first movie. Stars were attached and dropped out of the project, and filmmakers were eyed but ultimately unavailable. The issue was that the pandemic began shortly as early development began. It would’ve brought back characters and introduced a ton more. In 2019 development started on a sequel, Warcraft 2. Despite poor critic reviews and a lackluster domestic box office, it did well enough in international markets to keep conversations between Blizzard and Universal going. I don't know how I feel about any of this I suppose.We’ve exclusively learned that a reboot of the Warcraft movie is in development over at Universal Pictures. I feel as though if it doesn't feature Arthas > Lich King then it'll "be a box office disappointment" again but then they'd have to skip things between WC1 and WC3. "although Warcraft was considered be a box office disappointment"īut despite that, it's still the highest grossing game movie of all time Comment by GameLeech666 on T00:03:19-05:00 Yeeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Comment by Staalsy on T00:00:56-05:00 This would've helped a lot especially for people unfamiliar with the Warcraft lore and universe. Maybe eventually? Comment by AkiyamaLight on T23:59:58-05:00Īrthas trilogy now, please! Edit: By the way, I think the first Warcraft movie could've improved a lot if it had a narrator telling you the story from a greater perspective.

He kept teasing extra footage "if the film did well at the box office", but instead just didn't film any of the required material.Īnyway, I'm all in for a 2nd movie. I really enjoyed the 1st movie, but I feel the director did the movie a serious disservice by wanting to cut too much material. It was like reading a book that had several chapters missing, too much was left out. I personally loved the first movie, but for those who never played Warcraft or dont know much about the lore, I'd very much like that, tho Metzen specifically noted he's not involved, so don't look too much into that Comment by EmpireUnion on T23:55:10-05:00 This post was from a user who has deleted their account. The editing really destroyed what could've been an otherwise okay movie. If they have better editors this time, sure, why not. as much hate as the first movie got, i enjoyed it a lot.
