The veil is set to come off the highly-anticipated Warcraft movie later this week, as director Duncan Jones is preparing to show the first trailer for the film at BlizzCon.

Warner Bros. has also released a new poster for the film, and with it comes the reveal that the film will be going by a different title in the UK – being called: Warcraft: The Beginning. I smell sequel plans here.

The cast of the film includes Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Toby Kebbell, Ben Schnetzer, Rob Kazinsky and Daniel Wu, and a synopsis for the movie has also been revealed. It reads thus:

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. 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.
