If you watched the first trailer for Warcraft: The Beginning (its full title here and elsewhere outside of the US), you may have hoped for more of the game's magic. Your wish is this new footage's command, as there are plenty of new shots to be found within.

With Moon and Source Code man Duncan Jones marshaling the combat, Warcraft follows what happens when the peaceful realm of Azeroth is thrown into chaos by the arrival of what appear to be fearsome invaders: Orc warriors. Fleeing their dying home, the new arrivals are looking for a new place to colonize and the human realm would seem to be ideal. But that sets the stage for an epic clash between the two races, even as heroes on opposing sides come to realise that there might just be more to fight for than just conquest and defence.

Toby Kebbell, Dominic Cooper, Travis Fimmel, Robert Kazinsky, Ruth Negga, Paula Patton and Ben Foster feature in the cast, Warcraft hopes to draw in audiences that love the game and those who don't know their Lothar from their Lolcats. The film itself will arrive on May 30. For Jones' breakdown of the first trailer, head here.
