Warcraft Movie Details at San Diego Comic Con – SDCC 2013

Duncan Jones was at the Legendary Panel and some details and a teaser for the upcoming Warcraft movie was shown.
The teaser consisted of a 30 second short. The landscape was described as looking like possibly Durotar or Hellfire. An unshaven figure in armor was drinking water from a leather pouch. There is green lightning in the sky. The man draws his long sword, takes a shield from an armored skeleton and starts banging his sword against it. It then cuts to a giant green arm of an orc which then pans out some and we see it raise an axe against the human. As the weapons collide it cuts to the title “Warcraft”.
Legendary pictures tweeted this image of Duncan Jones with the Nerdist Chris Hardwick.

Some information from a friend of ours on Twitter who I believe was at the panel
@Blizz_Pro @Warcraft movie info: live trailer is a “mood trailer”. Principal photography starts early next year”.

EDIT: As of right now there are no plans to release the trailer on the internet according to Duncan Jones. This is probably to be expected as it was simply a teaser to get people excited and the footage for the film hasn’t even started yet – so it’s unlikely anything seen will be what’s in the movie itself.
@JudgeHype will not be releasing that on the net, I’m afraid.

EDIT 2: As expected, people were asked to put away their phones and cameras for the announcement and no one knew it was a Warcraft announcement. It’s doubtful we’ll see any images or video of the trailer. Had to be there.
@Blizz_Pro @shamanrongar Yeap. Phones went down; part of the hype. Of course, no1 knew until they announced it that it was for Warcraft.

That’s pretty exciting!!
Any details on when the trailer is going to be online?
Just updated the story, you won’t be seeing it online. Had to be there to experience it.
Thanks for the answer! It’s sad to read that. Although, I don’t think we will have to wait much to start seeing some cool stuff.
