Divide! The Horde And Alliance Get Their Own Warcraft Posters

With the trailer due to arrive in a few short hours, Duncan Jones’ Warcraft (Warcraft: The Beginning to give it its full title) is keeping the PR blitz going with two sort-of new posters for the fantasy film. Take a look at the Horde imagery below and the Alliance lower down the page.

We say sort of, because these two are really just split versions of the images that make up the main poster, which we took a look at here. Still, it’s a chance to see close-up versions of the characters.

Duncan Jones is putting the finishing touches to the film, which promises to show both sides of the story set in the seemingly peaceful realm of Azeroth, poised to descend into bitter war between man and orc when a portal opens between their two worlds. We’ll meet the likes of battle-hardened warrior Anduin Lothar (Travis Fimmel), the commander of the human forces and champion of his king, Llane Wrynn (Dominic Cooper). But as opposed to the usual faceless hordes of monsters attacking them, we’ll also check in with the Orcs of the Horde, who arrive because they’re fleeing the destruction of their own home world, and are led by Durotan (Toby Kebbell).

For more on Warcraft, including an exclusive on-set chinwag with Jones and some of the cast and crew, pick up the latest Empire. And stay tuned to this site for the trailer. As for the film, that will march into our cinemas on June 3 next year.
