How to Craft a War Stars Directors

Duncan Jones One of the bestselling and most beloved video game franchises is finally getting the movie treatment. Interestingly, “Warcraft” (or “Warcraft: The Beginning” in some markets) will be based on the very first game—in fact, the very first property—in the long-running franchise, which was released back in 1994. As the story goes, when the barbaric (but actually pretty honorable and heroic) orcs flee their dying home world, they are guided through a dark portal that leads them to the realm of humans. The stage is thus set for battles of epic proportions, as well as a multitude of sequels and prequels that are sure to follow.
