As you know director Sam Raimi is taking on the biggest and most epic video game adaptation ever! World of WarCraft. There is a lot riding on this game and it has the potential to be as epic as Lord of the Rings, maybe even bigger. Because of how much is riding on this film Blizzard executives are going to keep a close eye on the movie and it’s development. Blizzard vice president Frank Pearce said when asked about what they want to see in the story for the film:

That’s really going to be something that Sam and whatever screenwriter we choose decide. For me, telling a story in two to three hours is going to be different from the books that we have or the story in the game. It’s a big universe, and we can tell almost any story we want. … I always look at the WarCraft universe, and there’s good and evil and there’s right and wrong.

Raimi plays the game with his son and his friends. He continued saying:

Between Sam’s incredible talent, the support of Legendary Pictures and the involvement of producer Chuck Roven, we are confident the movie is in the best possible hands.
