It looks like Warner Bros. is starting serious work on the movie adaptation of World of Warcraft. The studio wants Johnny Depp in the movie.

The Hollywood Reporter reports that production on the film is to start later this year. It’s expected the World of Warcraft film will be ready for a 2015 release.

It’s expected to cost well over $100 million to make so it’s understandable that Warner Bros. wants a huge star like Depp to be in the movie. Source Code director Duncan Jones is reportedly going to direct the film.

Warner Bros. will have to choose an appropriate release date for the film if it’s going to succeed. With Avengers 2, Star Wars Episode VII and the Justice League all out in 2015, there will be a lot of competition that year!
