We’ve seen a lot of video game-based films over the past few years, but one based on World of Warcraft could definitely generate some excitement, especially amongst the rabid hardcore fan base. According to a recent tweet from a production database company, we may not be waiting too long.

This tweet indicates that Legendary Pictures has locked in a date for filming after setting up offices at Canadian Motion Picture Park in Vancouver, British Columbia. It states that filming is likely to start as soon as January 13.

Duncan Jones is currently tapped to direct the film, taking the place of Sam Raimi who was originally on the project. No word yet on who’s been cast for the film, but we’re likely to know more over the next few months as the film prepares to enter production.
