Universal has released the first "Warcraft" TV spot.
Hollywood is known for failed attempts at video game adaptations, but it seems that "Warcraft" could change all that. As seen in the latest TV spot, "Warcraft" has perfectly combined the real world and CGI, which could potentially translate into numbers at the box office.
"The peaceful realm of Azeroth stands on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders: Orc warriors fleeing their dying home to colonize another," reads the film's official synopsis published by The Hollywood News. "As a portal opens to connect the two worlds, one army faces destruction and the other faces extinction."
"From opposing sides, two heroes are set on a collision course that will decide the fate of their family, their people and their home. So begins a spectacular saga of power and sacrifice in which war has many faces, and everyone fights for something."
Below is the "Warcraft" movie's cast courtesy of Cinema Blend.
Dominic cooper (Howard Stark from the "Iron Man" movies) as King Llane Wrynn, Travis Fimmel (Vikings) as Anduin Lothar, Ben Foster (The Program, The Lone Survivor) as Medivh "The Guardian," Robert Kazinsky (Pacific Rim) as Orgrim, Paul Patton (Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol) as Garona, Toby Kebell (Fantastic Four) as Durotan, Daniel Wu (The Man with the Iron Fists) as Gul'Dan, Ruth Negga (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) as Lady Taria, Clancy Brown (The Shawshank Redemption) as Blackhand "The Destroyer" and Ben Schnetzer (Pride) as Khadgar.
The movie is helmed by Duncan Jones of "The Source Code" fame.
The adaptation of Blizzard's popular video game franchise was scheduled to release this year, and has been postponed twice before that. Legendary's "Warcraft" movie will open in U.S. theaters on June 16, 2016.
