If HBO makes a Warcraft adaptation

He has the body to play Arthas but not the voice in my opinion. He’s more of a low-pitched, rugged grumbling speaker like Varian. Arthas has a strong, youthful, clear, projected voice.

It would be, because the Warcraft story is portrayed through games and considering how the game has so many different distinct races, it would be impossible for them to have accurate visual representation in live-action films. Did you see the Night Elves in the Warcraft movie? I liked the movie but it didn’t honor their image at ALL. I would hate to see a live action attempt at High Elves. They would just look like every other generic elf depicted in every movie and video game outside of WoW ever.

A simple example would be the absolute success of Prime’s Legend of Vox Machina - which shows there is a ready and very thirsty (so thirsty you think the fans are living in death valley with out water) market for fantasy adult animation.

A Warcraft adaptation doesn’t need to venture as far as Vox Machina, but the elements are there to greatly capitalize on the silly and violent nature that is Warcraft Lore that recreates the lightning it once had. Not trying to capture the same lightning, but use their talents to do what they did before through other means.

Or Blizzard just picks up the artists and writers and go full fledged Entertainment Studio and finally covers Music, Gaming and Animation entertainment and does everything themselves releasing new episodes for subscribers on main sight, while older episodes get the youtube treatment a month later…? could possibly work… :thinking:

Isn’t Microsoft seeking new things?

RL banshee playing the Banshee Queen. You know what? I ship it!

I wouldn’t want to see either of them. I am burned out with just about all WoW main characters.

If it was animated i would want john rhys-davies to voice act one of the dwarf council members.

Jaina=Diane Kruger
Tyrande=Alicia Vikander
Sylvanas=Carice van Houten

First two I agree with, 3rd I will have to look up because I don’t know who that is.

Meadow Soprano for Tyrande
Sookie Stackhouse for Jaina
Cheryl David for Sylvanas

Ulduar the movie > any blizzard cinematics

There’s a reason they’re losing sponsors.

Maybe look into it.

Just make a time machine and have Mel Gibson play Varian and prime leo or brad pitt as Anduin.

Jessica Alba
Alison Brie
Chloe Bennet

Doesn’t matter who’s casted for which role.

Is this actually on the table / rumored or just like a hypothetical?

And do you mean a show like the new ASOIAF show set prior to GOT events or a movie?

If this were to happen, don’t let Duncan anywhere near it.

Lifted from a similar topic awhile back:

(I think some of these are intended as voice actors)

  • Emma Stone as Jaina Proudmoore
  • Adrian Brody as Varian Wrynn
  • Tracy Morgan as Garrosh Hellscream
  • Emma Watson as Sylvanas Windrunner
  • Seth Myers as Khadgar
  • Kiera Knightly as Tyrande Whisperwind
  • Eddie Murphy as Voljin, Bwomsamdi, Old Blanchy, Pocopoc, and Hakkar.
  • Tom Cruise as Gelbin Mekkatorque
  • Ron Howard as Pelagos
  • Chris Rock as Topper McNabb
  • Melissa Rauch and Simon Helberg as most Gnomes
  • Mike Myers as Magni Bronzebeard

  • Jim Carrey as Jastor Gallywix
  • Sam Elliot at Genn Greymane
  • Kit Harrington as Arthas

All main characters played by Little People. Goblins and Gnomes played by tall people.
