We Get Our First Look At Orgrim Doomhammer From The ‘Warcraft’ Movie

Video game film adaptations have been, at least in the last ten years, have been met with trepidation. Gamer’s have a somewhat awkward stance to take. One one hand we want to see our favorite properties adapted into another medium, and on the other hand we don’t want Uwe Boll (full disclosure, I love Uwe Boll but the comedic balance needs to be met in my posts). Ever since the Warcraft film was announced way back in 2006, and filming didn’t even start til 2014, the community has been flip flopping on excitement.

One of the biggest worries was how dependent on after effects the film would rely on. Well today we got ourselves a little tease of what one of the main characters, Orgrim Doomhammer, will look like in the upcoming epic, and this geek is frankly excited for the CG Orc!

Orgrim Doomhammer is going to be played by Robert Kazinsky (I had to look him up too, Pacific Rim apparently). Director Duncan Jones was quoted in a Wired Magazine interview saying:

We were looking for someone who would be able to perform the gruffness, the humor, and the toughness of this character.

The Warcraft movie is set to hit theaters (pending anymore push backs) June 10th 2016!
