Today at Comic-Con, Legendary Pictures released new character art for the upcoming Warcraft movie’s two main characters, Lothar and Durotan. I definitely like the art direction here.
The Warcraft film is an Orcs vs. Humans origin story that will see Lothar (the human) and Durotan (the Orc) go head-to-head as they each attempt to do right for their people, according to director Duncan Jones.
Lothar is played by Travis Fimmel, who is perhaps best known for his role as Ragnar Lothbrok on the TV show Vikings. Durotan, a character partially created through CGI, will be brought to life by Toby Kebbel. The actor previously did similar work, when he portrayed the ape Koba in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.
Also at Comic-Con today, Jones shared an image of a new prop for the film.

After multiple delays, the Warcraft movie is now scheduled to open June 10, 2016.
Speaking at Comic-Con this week, Jones revealed that the film is nearly done and that he has ideas for a trilogy. We also got a look at some nice-looking movie props, made by Lord of the Rings studio WETA.
We’re expecting to learn more about the Warcraft movie later this afternoon during a Comic-Con panel that begins at 2:30 PM PDT, where we may finally see the film’s first trailer.
