The World of Warcraft movie doesn't just have a release date. It's got a cast now as well.
If you were expecting BIG NAMES on this list, you won't find them. The actors announced by Legendary and Universal Pictures are:
- Ben Foster (Six Feet Under)
- Travis Fimmel (Vikings)
- Paula Patton (Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol)
- Toby Kebbell (War Horse)
- Rob Kazinsky (Pacific Rim)
- Dominic Cooper (Captain America)
Note that obviously these aren't the only actors, just the first to be officially signed to the project, so the door is still open for big-name announcements later down the line. Or, not...the more famous the star, the more distracting it might be for a movie like this.
