The curse of the videogame film may finally be about to break.

The first poster for World Of Warcraft has been unveiled, with the very first trailer set for release on Friday.

The film is based on Blizzard’s massively multiplayer online role-playing game – the most popular MMORPG in the world, with more than 100million accounts being created over its lifetime.

The poster pits against each other the movie’s two warring factions – the orcish Horde and the human Alliance.

On the left side, slathered in red warpaint with protruding tusks pierced, is leader of the Horde Ogrim, played by Fantastic Four’s Dr Doom, Toby Kebbel. 

On the right is Alliance champion Anduin Lothar, played by bearded Vikings star Travis Fimmel.

According to the official website, the film is set in the normally peaceful realm of Azeroth, now on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders: Orc warriors fleeing their dying home to colonize another

‘As a portal opens to connect the two worlds, one army faces destruction and the other faces extinction. From opposing sides, two heroes are set on a collision course that will decide the fate of their family, their people and their home.’

The film is directed by David Bowie’s son Duncan Jones, who was also behind 2009’s Moon and 2011’s Source Code.

He has indicated before that it will not be a straight good vs evil story – that each side will have a protagonist whom audiences could root for.

It also stars Dominic Cooper, Ben Foster and Ruth Negga as Alliance members, and Robert Kazinsky and Clancy Brown as Orcs.

As the half-orc Garona, Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol star Paula Patton may have the most interesting roll of all, forced to choose between the sides.

Colin Farrell was once attached to the project, and although he never saw it through he did confirm that the script was ‘amazing’ and akin to Lord of the Rings.

Human: Ruth Negga will play Lady Taria Wrynn

Brothers in arms: Dominic Cooper will play King Llane Wrynn, ruler of the human Kingdom of Stormwind; while Ben Foster stars as Magus Medivh

Videogame fans have long awaited any film that will do its source material justice; traditionally films based on games perform poorly, ranging from the decent efforts of Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Doom, and Mortal Kombat, to the abysmal Mario Bros, Street Fighter, Alone In The Dark, Mortal Kombat Annihilation.

Fans must only wait until Friday to finally see footage from the film, with the long-awaited first trailer finally making its debut.

Having wrapped filming back in May, it was scheduled for release on December 18, but pushed it back to Jun 10 to avoid the release of Star Wars The Force Awakens. 

So far so good: The film is directed by David Bowie’s son Duncan Jones, who was also behind 2009’s Moon (pictured) and 2011’s Source Code
