Director Duncan Jones is deep into the production on 2016′s Warcraft movie.
Director Duncan Jones is best known for the award-winning sci-fi films Moon and Source Code, it will be interesting to see what he does with Warcraft. WETA Workshop have set up a booth showing off some of their remarkable props work on the film-and we’ve got footage of all the awesomeness right here!
“I was obviously focused mainly on the film, but we discussed what kind of experience we could give the audience through VR”, said Jones, speaking with reporters at the Legendary booth. Images of both the Orgrim and King Llane sculpts are attached. This is the largest VR distribution partnership Google has ever done. Available to download by visiting Legendary.com/VR and powered by Google Cardboard, the App will enable anyone with a smartphone to enjoy three unique VR experiences.
