I guess with all the money their making they really can't aford not to get him. Besides I'm sure they sold him when they said, if only 25% of our players go see it we'll still make a bajillion dollars!

Online sources are claiming that Hollywood trade publication Variety has reported that director Steven Spielberg is attached to the recently announced WarCraft movie.

Hot on the heels of the anouncement of a Kip Thorne-inspired sci-fi project, Steven Spielberg is now being set to direct WORLD OF WARCRAFT, the adaptation of the popular computer game. This seems rather odd because, not only is it a bit much for Spielberg to have what is now four projects slated for the next few years, a video game adaptation (which, as a genre, have yet to claim any kind of mainstream prestige) does not seem like the type of movie for a director of his status to even consider, let alone pile on top of other stuff he has in the works.
