Azeroth prepares for battle in new Warcraft teaser

It's fighting time

Legendary Pictures reportedly hosted a surprise screening of Duncan Jones' Warcraft film this past week in Los Angeles, but for those that couldn't attend, the studio has also released a new teaser.

The teaser features Travis Fimmel's Sir Anduin Lothar, a knight for the Kingdom of Azeroth better known as the Lion of Azeroth, taking on a giant orc. They're in the middle of what appears to be a desert, with skulls and other various bones scattered among them.

The video focuses pretty heavily on the various characters — both in Lothar's army of human soldiers and a gang of orcs — as they prepare for war. There are some shots of the different lands World of Warcraft fans will be familiar with, too.

Jones' movie will follow the orc and human races, once bitter enemies, as they come together to take on a new and bigger threat. Although there are issues within both armies over the newfound comradeship, it's evident this is the only option the orcs have after being forced to move away from the land they called home.

Warcraft, which stars Fimmel alongside Toby Kebbell, Paula Patton, Ben Foster and Dominic Cooper, hits theaters June 10.
