WARCRAFT Movie Character Details Revealed and Photos

Director Duncan Jones had a Warcraft movie presentation at Blizzcon yesterday, and during the panel he revealed the characters that all of the lead actors are playing. Up until now the identities of the characters that the actors would be playing have been kept under wraps. We were also sent some details on each of those characters that will be introduced in the film. 

Below you will find a list of characters that have been divided between ‘Alliance’ and ‘Horde,’ which are the two opposing armies in the franchise. I also included photos of the actors from the presentation, thanks to /Film.

These images feature our first look at the characters Orgrim (above), and King Llane (very bottom). Here are the characters, but not all of them include photos.
