Duncan Jones To Direct Legendary’s ‘World Of Warcraft’ Adaptation

You know the long talked about Legendary Pictures World Of Warcraft flm adaptation? There hasn’t been much word on it since it was revealed that Blood Diamond writer Charles Leavitt was brought on to work on the script for the film. Well, it has finally landed a director in the form of Duncan Jones (Moon, Source Code). Bringing the popular Blizzard Entertainment video game universe to life will be a massive jump for the director. The Hollywood Reporter reports:

“The Warner Bros.-based production and finance outfit is eyeing a fall 2013 start and a 2015 release. Jones’ producing partner, Stuart Fenegan, will executive produce on behalf of their production company, Liberty Films. Chris Metzen will co-produce for Blizzard.”

With Legendary aiming at a 2015 release date for the film, it looks like there is going to be one more large scale film joining that year’s slate.
