However, Blizzard, the video game company, decided that the film might resonate with The Lord of the Rings, so it was shelved for a while. The next year of release was 2009, which was then moved to 2011. At Comicon 2011, Blizzard announced that the film was still in development. Uwe Boll, known for his failed projects and Golden Raspberry awards, showed interest in Warcraft. The representatives of Blizzard made it clear to the director that they would not take him, as a bad movie can affect people's attitude towards the game. Sam Raimi was in the running for the director's chair, but it was eventually taken by Duncan Jones. Travis Fimmel, Toby Kebbell, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Robert Kaczynski, Paula Patton, Ruth Negg, Cullen Mulvey and others played the main roles in the movie "Warcraft: The Beginning". For director Duncan Jones, this is the third full-length work. After the short "Whistle", he directed the fantasy story about a lonely man on the planet "Moon 2112" with Sam Rockwell and the mystical thriller "Primary Code" with Jake Gyllenhaal. Filming on "Warcraft: The Beginning" began in January 2014 and ended in May 2014. The main site was Vancouver. The post-production of the tape took twenty months.
