Is there still hope for a second Warcraft movie for WoW? The director reveals what needs to happen.
Although the Warcraft movie was well received by many fans of Blizzard’s fantasy franchise in Europe and China, the film was considered a flop in America. Director Duncan Jones repeatedly emphasized afterward how frustrating it was that he was strongly advised against certain aspects of the film and that entire plot lines were left out.
On Twitter, he is often asked by fans how things are looking for a possible second part. After all, the story of the first part introduced several new storylines, such as Thrall’s suspension, which would provide a perfect hook for a sequel.
Recently, Jones shared artwork on Twitter and mused about “what could have been” and how much fun a sequel would have been. This led to some reactions from fans who reminisced about the film.
Fans need to take the initiative for Warcraft Part 2
When asked again what would be necessary to actually create a second Warcraft movie, Jones gave a clear answer.
The only possibility is that a whole “horde” of fans communicates this to the new heads of Legendary, Joshua Grode or Dalian Wanda, to make it clear that such a film is still desired.
However, this does not seem particularly realistic at this point. Nevertheless, fans cling to the small spark of hope, as the solid success in China, which is increasingly becoming the primary target audience for major film productions, could ultimately exert the necessary influence.
Would you like to see a second Warcraft movie? If so, what storyline should it cover? Thrall’s life or perhaps directly the story of the Lich King?
