The San Diego Comic Con is the next massive event to look forward to in the mushrooming field of comic culture. In this four-day convention, elusive details and spoilers regarding the much-awaited "Warcraft" movie will finally trickle in. 

Legendary Pictures, which is in charge of retelling the story between the Alliance and the Horde in the world of Azeroth on the big screen, has its lineup locked in for the upcoming event. In this list are gothic horror "Crimson Park," horror comedy "Krampus," and the "World of Warcraft" film adaptation, which is being helmed by Duncan Jones. 

The presentations will take place on July 11 at Hall H, with comedian and "Nerdist" host Chris Hardwick to start the ball rolling. While Legendary Pictures has not confirmed which talents will be there to give a preview of the film, Collider suspects a stellar squad to take the stage. 

It won't be a surprise to see the cast members, namely Dominic Cooper (King Llane Wrynn), Toby Kebell (Durotan), Clancy Brown (Blackhand), Travis Fimmel (Anduin Lothar), Paula Patton (Garona), Ben Foster (Medivh), Robert Kazinsky (Orgrim), and many others joining the panel. 

The studio will also hold a booth (#3920) activity from July 9 to 12 wherein there will be, as the Comic Con website detailed, "talent and filmmaker signings, virtual reality experiences, 'Warcraft' prop photo opportunities and fan giveaways." Fans can be among the 630 attendees by being at the venue before 2:30 p.m.

The "Warcraft" movie is an attempt at a cinematic reimagining of the differences between humans and orcs that pit them right against each other. This is the basic premise of Blizzard Entertainments' "Warcraft" video game series, the first installment of which was released more than two decades ago. 

The massively multiplayer online games are acclaimed for their high-fantasy setting and impeccable real-time strategy, which is why gamers and moviegoers alike are excited to see the "Warcraft" movie when it is finally released on June 10, 2016.
