Now that November is finally here, the officialWarcraft Twitterpage revealed a new poster, while confirming that the worldwide debut of the trailer will happen on Friday, November 6. The new poster showcases The Horde’s Durotan (Toby Kebbell) and The Alliance’s Anduin Lothar (Travis Fimmel).
From Legendary Pictures and Universal Pictures comesWarcraft, an epic adventure of world-colliding conflict based on Blizzard Entertainment’s global phenomenon. The peaceful realm of Azeroth stands on the brink of war as its civilization faces a fearsome race of invaders:Orc warriorsfleeing 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. So begins a spectacular saga of power and sacrifice in which war has many faces, and everyone fights for something.

The trailer’s debut on Friday, November 6 will likely coincide with the annual BlizzCon convention, which takes place on November 6 and November 7 at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, California.
Since the trailer will be released this Friday, it’s possible that it will be attached to theatrical prints of Sony Pictures' newJames Bondaction-adventureSpectre, but we don’t know for sure. Legendary Pictures doesn’t have any movies hitting theaters this month, but the action-packedSpectrewill be a good fit for the trailer’s theatrical debut. Fans at Hall H reacted positively to this trailer at Comic Con, so we’ll have to wait and see how everyone else reacts to the first footage.
Warcraftwill hit theaters on June 08, 2025, where it will go up against a pair of sequels, Lionsgate’sNow You See Me 2: The Second Actand Warner Bros.‘The Conjuring: The Enfield Poltergeist. Given the popularity of all three of these franchises, it may be a close weekend at the box office, but we’ll find out for sure next summer.
