My fancast and ideas for the looooong awaited WarCraft film

First the plot would have to be centered around the Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos story line and major parts of The Lord of the Clans novel. Basically it will focus on two main characters, Arthas and Thrall, and cut back and forth between each of their stories. The film will begin with Blackmoore finding baby Thrall in the forest. The first half will be the rise of Arthas and Thrall's story, his escape from Blackmoore's fighting pits and his meeting with Doomhammer, Doomhammer's death. The second half will focus on the fall of Arthas and his murdering of his father, followed by Thrall returning to Blackmoore's keep and killing the man and finally Arthas' ascension to the Lich King. The film will end with Arthas sitting on the frozen throne.

First, our Director:



Guillermo Del Toro

Not only is Del Toro a fantastic director but he has the most amazing team of special effects experts who could easily bring the incredible beings of Warcraft, such as the Orcs and Night Elves to life. He uses the most effective blend of puppetry, suits and CGI that would make the film very believable.

I would imagine the Orcs done in bulky suits with the actors faces motion captured and made more rugged but still similar and placed on the suits.
The night elves would just have a ton of prosthetics. The tauren would be a large hybrid of animatronics/CGI.


And now our cast:



Alexander Skarsgard as Arthas Menethil/The Lich King

This guy just screams Arthas to me, he is also a very talented actor.



Hakeem Kae-Kazim as the Voice of Thrall

Anybody who has ever played Halo Reach will recognize this guys voice as Jorge. He did incredible voicework and his voice in that game reminds me exactly of how Thrall should sound. Deep, yet kind.



Zoe Saldana as Tyrande Whisperwind

She's absolutely gorgeous and with the right prosthetics she would steal the part.



Sean Bean as Uther the Lightbringer

The ONLY choice that came to mind for this role! He's perfect!



Idris Elba as the Voice of Orgrim Doomhammer

Great actor, has a very commanding voice! i think he would own the part.



Matthew Fox as Malfurion Stormrage

The Stormrage brothers were the hardest parts to cast, i found. I don't know why, i think it was because i wanted them to have a brotherly feel, two actors that look like they could be brothers but still have distinctive looks. Fox i felt would be the perfect Malfurion to, the one and only,

Josh Holloway as Illidan Stormrage



I know its somewhat of a longshot, but i thought they could pull it off pretty well.



Ron Perlman as Magni Bronzebeard

Ron Perlman. Nuff said haha



Jeffrey Dean Morgan as the voice of Grom Hellscream

I think he could bring an interesting take to Grom, he's a very good actor and one of my personal favorites.



Christopher Lee as the voice of Cairne Bloodhoof

I wanted an elderly actor with a very peaceful and kind voice. Christopher Lee was perfect i thought.



Evangeline Lilly as Jaina Proudmoore

Lovely, lovely lady. Would be a perfect Jaina.



John Hurt as King Terenas Menethil

Perfect casting. Hurt is an amazing actor.



Jackie Earle Haley as the voice of Kel'Thuzad

Creepiest ass voice in the world haha he would be a very great Kel'Thuzad



Rufus Sewell as Aedelas Blackmoore

Love this guy in A Knight's Tale, i think that character and this one are very similar.



Bryce Dallas Howard as Taretha Foxton

Thrall's love interest, BDH is super fine. Thought she would do great!

So there you have my cast! Let me know what you guys think!

Andrew Stanton (John Carter Of Mars), Neill Blomkamp or Alex Proyas would be cool choice as the director if not Del Toro.

To have the orcs look taller than all the other actors they could either hire really big actors/stunt men (at least over 6'8") to play them or just go with the Thor approach and make them huge through motion captures like with the Frost Giants.

Either way, it would be cool to see a Warcraft movie being; I have always enjoyed the character of Thrall throughout the series.

Actually, the story of wow is narrated in more than 10 books. This film is about lord of the clans, yet, there are so many details that anyone needs to know from previous books to understand the events. Its said it starts from the birth of Thrall and finishes by Arthas sitting on the frozen throne. I wonder how they want to cover all the stores in only one movie....

The dwarfs ,specifically Bronzebeards,are shorter compared to other races. Its interesting they have hired a tall man for that role !!
