    Where are the other warlords in the Warcraft movie? [no spoilers]

    I haven't seen the movie yet, but it seems from the promotional material that the only warlord present in the movie is Gul Dan. By warlords I mean of course the warlords from WoD. I was too young when I played WC1 and 2 to remember the story. Not even sure I finished the campaigns. So, were the warlords from WoD only present in WC2 or what? Why aren't they (supposedly) around in the movie? I assume the movie is based on the WC1 story?

    You can see Durotan, Orgrim Doomhammer and Blackhand in the trailers

    EDIT: Kargath, Grom and Ner'zhul stayed in Draenor during the first war. I don't know if Kilrogg and Cho'gal appear in the movie

    how can I tell you anything about the warlords IF you want to keep this spoiler free ?
    I have seen this movie
    And I'll keep this spoiler free (as possible)
    ( they are there in the background and making some cameos - but the story kept focusing on some specific orcs that had to do with the lore of WC1

    According to Rise of the Horde, only about half of the orc clans actually traveled through the portal to Azeroth. The rest remained behind on Draenor, those are the clans that were fought in Beyond the Dark Portal.

    Whether or not this is still the case in the movie is in question since the movie doesn't follow canon.

    According to the book hey? The different clan names in ToD vs BtDP pointed that out long before the book was written.

    you can see Durotan, Blackhand and Gul'Dan as main characters
    Grommash (3-4 times), Kargath (twice) and Kilrogg (once) make a cameo appearance at the end of the movie, they don't even have lines to say
    there is no Ner'Zhul. that guy in the trailer is simply a grunt

    G.H. can be seen in several scenes in middle and end of the movie. At orc camp and final fighting scenes
    K.B. is swwn twice. At final scene. K.D is at final battle as well.

    but the non-wow player will not know the side char who's name was not reveled in the movie
    Like G.H - K.D - K.B - and the Alliance char as well

    They are far too busy being unimportant just as they were in WoD.

    and they dont need to know who they are. why? because they make several seconds long cameos during fighting scenes, that's all
    for them, they dont speak, they arenot named. and that's even good. orcis names won't overwhelm nonwowplayers they are ordinary orcs or humans. if 2nd movie comes out and features them, they might remember these persons

    Most likely dead with an axe through their back, considering how much Legendary Pictures butchered the story.

    Bullshit Grom and Kargath are in the movie and pretty close to spot them.

    Most of them are mentioned, or they are in the background as CGI renderings. But true to the lore, half of them remained on Draenor, only to return at the second invasion.

    I was talking about the ORIGINAL lore in my edit. I have not seen the movie. They obviously could appear in the Draenor scenes or change it altogether
