We've rounded up another batch of
Warcraft
interviews covering everything from deleted scenes to Garona's backstory. The numbers are also in for
Warcraft
's opening weekend: $31.6 million across 20 countries. Check out our
Warcraft Movie Hub
for our past film coverage and a link to buy tickets.
TradeChat Interviews
TradeChat
has posted her interviews from the Hollywood press junket a few weeks ago! In these interviews, she asked about some differences from the game, notably that Khadgar is not an old man at the end of the movie, and that Garona is half-human instead of half-draenei. We also get to see Rob Kazinsky reminisce about his time playing a world-ranked Death Knight in Wrath of the Lich King!
Vanion.eu Interviews
German fansite Vanion
also has released several cast and crew interviews. Highlights include Duncan Jones talking about the aggressive cut of the film and that there was definitely enough material for an extended edition. The biggest challenge for him directing the film was the duration of the project--he exclusive worked on
Warcraft
for over three years.
WoWChakra Interview
WoWChakra
also interviewed Duncan Jones, covering motion-capture filming, making the audience care about both factions, and the potential for sequels with Thrall.
Daily Beast Interview
Duncan Jones was interviewed by
The Daily Beast
, talking about the movie's inevitable comparisons to
Lord of the Rings
and parallels to Europe's immigration crisis. A common theme with all of these interviews is that there is a ton of footage from the Director's Cut which didn't make it into the final version:
Jones tried to work in an insidery Easter Egg that would have tied
Warcraft
to his cinematic universe. “If you know
Moon
or
Source Code
, there’s this very sweet, very talented guy named Chesney Hawks who wrote this really, really big hit in Britain called ‘I Am The One And Only,’” he teased. “I used it as an alarm clock in
Moon
, and a ring tone in
Source Code
—and I actually got him to do a version as a bard in Warcraft.”
Alas! When Jones whittled down his 2 hour and 40 minute cut to the final runtime of just over two hours, “we weren’t able to keep it in the cut. But somehow, maybe, I’ll just sneak it into the Twitterverse… he did a
Warcraft
-medievally version of his single, and it’s just brilliant. Unfortunately I was the only one who thought it was hilarious.”
Duncan Jones Birthday
Today, May 30th, is director Duncan Jones' birthday! Wish him a Happy Birthday at
@ManMadeMoon
and stick around his Twitter feed for the movie tweets and fan interactions.
International Opening Weekend
Variety
and
Deadline
have reported on the opening weekend success of Warcraft. The film grossed $31.6 million dollars across 20 countries.
From Deadline:
Gamers and more rushed out to see the bigscreen adaptation of Blizzard Entertainment’s wildly popular franchise, dropping a multi-player-fueled $31.6M in the process. In 73 IMAX plays, the Duncan Jones-helmed pic grossed $2.1M.
Russia was the most keen to convene with the denizens of Azeroth and their Orc friends and foes, launching the movie with $10M and 63% of the market. It’s the No. 2 opener there of 2016. Germany was also a No. 1 debut with $5.9M and a 42% share. France played to a No. 1 $4.5M; Sweden’s No. 1 bow was $1.2M, making it Universal’s fourth-biggest opening weekend ever behind only
Fifty Shades Of Grey
,
Jurassic World
and
Furious 7
.
Warcraft‘s other No. 1s included Austria, Denmark (third-biggest opening of the year), Egypt, Hungary, Iceland, Indonesia, Latvia, Lebanon, the Middle East, Norway, Pakistan, Slovenia, Switzerland, Thailand and the UAE. There are 45 more territories to open over the next two months, including Brazil, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and the UK, among others, next frame.
Twitter Reactions
Director Duncan Jones has been tweeting a lot of positive fan reactions to balance out the media's tendency to stereotype video game fans. No need to apologize for tweeting, we appreciate it!
One fan who enjoyed the movie was
Game of Thrones
actor Kristian Nairn! A self-described "Massive WoW+MMO, Gadgets and Tech Nerd," you can find Hodor in game via
Nairn
,
Kristian Nairn / Henry Wall
, and
Riddoh
