Sam Raimi, director of the Spider-Man film trilogy, will direct the upcoming Legendary Pictures movie based on Blizzard's World of Warcraft universe.

Blizzard COO Paul Sams says Raimi's the ideal choice to direct the film. "Blizzard Entertainment and Legendary Pictures have a shared vision for this film and we searched at length to find the very best director to bring that vision to life," he says. "From our first conversation with Sam, we could tell he was the perfect choice."

If they had to make it, I'm glad he's the one to do so.

I just hope they stick to Lore and don't go around fantasizing about stuff. I hope they tell the history and don't go on some "the story of -fill in name-'s adventure".
