Greenish sky is covered by dark clouds and lightning. He sees a pile of armor on the ground and lands down to pick up a shield. He then takes his sword and beats it against the shield, as though calling someone out. We then see a green beast from behind holding a giant hammer. The two circle each other and then both charge. As they are about to collide the title appears: Warcraft.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Hollywood director Duncan Jones is at the helm of the project, and is best known for his directorial work on Moon and Source Code.<\/p>\n<p>Legendary Pictures have handled other big-scale films, such as The Dark Knight Rises and is also financing the upcoming Godzilla reboot.<\/p>\n<p>The script is being penned by Charles Leavitt (Blood Diamond, The Express), but is being kept under wraps as to which WarCraft story it could be inspired from.<\/p>\n<p>Can Jones actually make WarCraft into a great movie?
