Warcraft Teaser Posters Unveiled; UPDATE: Characters Revealed!

Universal Pictures has released the first two Warcraft movie posters for director Duncan Jones’ (Moon) upcoming adaptation of the incredibly popular video game World of Warcraft.  The two teaser posters were unveiled at the recent WoW convention BlizzCon, and they tease the two major factions of the Warcraft world. [UPDATE: The characters for the movie have been revealed! Hit the jump, after the posters!]

The Alliance is made up of the mortal races in Azeroth (the literal World of Warcraft), and they are distinguished by a commitment to nobility and honor.  The Horde, meanwhile, is made up of Orcs, Trolls, Goblins, etc.  These two posters tease the weapons of each faction, and at Comic-Con we learned that the film will be an origin story that delves into how Azeroth fell into conflict between the Orcs (the Horde) and Humans (the Alliance).

The film stars Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Toby Kebbel, Rob Kazinsky, Ben Foster, Daniel Wu, and Clancy Brown.  Warcraft is set for release March 11, 2016. Check out the full teaser posters...
