Few days ago, Wired posted another preview of one of the main characters in Warcraft: Orgrim Doomhammer(Robert Kazinsky). This preview is an update to the previous one showed in the Blizzcon 2014 Warcraft Movie Panel. In this one, he seems like a mag'har compared to the older version where he is green or corrupted.

I dont understand one thing tho. If this move is supposte be about the first war then why it has so much Orgrim? There should be more Blackhand and Gul'Dan.

I think it's actually more about Durotan than Orgrim. They said that Durotan and Lothar are the two main characters, as far as I remember.
Besides, Orgrim was in the First War as well. And they have already casted Blackhand and Gul'Dan. I'm guessing they've just chosen Orgrim as their "marketing" (orc) character, since he's the most known character of all those. At least to the majority of people I guess.

Maybe it's because Orgrim's name will be recognized more by WoW players? Like "Ah, that guy from Orgrimmar"? Durotan isn't much mentioned in WoW, except as Thrall's father.

Both Orgrim and Durotan play big roles in WoD, so I don't think popularity is necessarily the reason. IMO, orcs become boring when you have one-sided villains like Gul'Dan or Blackhand (as awesome as they may be). Characters like Thrall, Orgrim, and Durotan are far more dynamic, so maybe that is why they chose them as the main characters for the horde.

As for the model, it is awesome. Their CGI never ceases to amaze me. I've always been thinking: if I get this impressed over one film still, I can't even imagine how I'll react seeing the entire film. Even if the Warcraft movie doesn't turn out to be that great, we'll at least be guaranteed impressive visuals.

Wait, I thought this is a makeup?

Nope, definately CGI.

Hopefully this will put an end to the whole "CGI looks so fake" bs.

I thought it was makeup, some says it's real makeup(just like LOTR characters)

Those people would be wrong. They've already confirmed that the orcs will be CGI on multiple occasions, and the website that posted those images mentions that as well.

This movie will change how people react to CGI!

Maybe... XD Let's just wait on 2016 and see if it is good!

Cheers!
