The company's VP of development Itzik Ben Bassat talked to Empire recently about the future of the company's line up and the long-in-development Warcraft movie.

First up, what's on deck for the MMO game? Bassat is cryptic, in the typical Blizz fashion:

When we announce our next MMORPG it's not going to be another WoW - we're not a company that tends to tread the same ground. It'll be something innovative and new that really brings entertainment to another level.

Interesting. More Starcraft, please. (Not Ghost, though, please.)

How about that World or Warcraft movie? Just about wrapped up yet?

If people only knew how many years we put in to closing this movie deal. We're very happy with our progress though, it was really difficult for us as a company to find some we trusted to work with. With Legendary, well, they did Batman Returns and the new Superman so we knew that was a company we wanted to work with. Bringing Warcraft to the movies is the next step for us...

Damn it! Nothing is ever easy! More cocktease answers at the full interview. Michael McWhertor
