With questions of who will be cast in the upcoming live-action adaptation of Warcraft, its been reported that Phonebooth and Alexander star Colin Farrell has been made an offer to star in the movie.<\/p>\n

Legendary Pictures and Atlas Entertainment have allegedly contacted Farrell, but are not sure that Farrell is going to make a deal, with sources saying it\u2019s \u201c50\/50\u201d.<\/p>\n

Paula Patton (Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, 2 Guns) is also reportedly up to star in the film.<\/p>\n

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

Legendary Pictures have handled other big-scale films, such as The Dark Knight Rises and is also financing the upcoming Godzilla reboot.<\/p>\n

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

Can Jones actually make WarCraft into a great movie? Let us know what you think.<\/p>\n
