If Terminator and Avatar man James Cameron nudged Blizzard for the project they’d ”probably sign that.” The WarCraft film still getting story.
”We’re still super excited about it,” said Blizzard’s Rob Pardo, ”but it’s still in that story-development phase.” He was talking about the WarCraft movie that’s officially in the works, but what about that other big franchise they’ve got? That StarCraft thingy?
”We’ve always had an interest in seeing our stuff on film or TV. It’s just tricky to find the right partners. We probably could have made a movie or something on TV years and years ago, but it’s really important to us that we find creative people that are really talented but also really excited about our properties,” continued Pardo.
”That’s always been the challenge for us. I think if Jim Cameron came to us tomorrow and said, ‘You want to make a ‘StarCraft’ movie?’ we’d probably sign that.”
”That’s why we did the ‘WoW’ movie. We were really excited about being involved with Legendary Pictures, who we thought had a really good track record with these sorts of movies that would make sense for our franchises.” Let’s all hope Blizzard did indeed find the ‘right partners’ for WarCraft because otherwise there’ll over 11m fans ticked off.
Would you support a James Cameron StarCraft movie, videogamer?
