Ahahahahhaahaha
Anduin is Christie Goldens baby and if there is anything I've learned from 10 years of playing is that Christie golden basically has the story writers by the balls
The story was morally gray until she just decided to white wash everything the alliance has ever done so there is nothing to compare them to. Christie tells them to jump, they do. They outta fire her if they want to save what little story they have left.
Anduin being her favorite character makes him absolutely never ever 100% ever going to dissapear or turn evil. He is going to continue being the bland can do no wrong pretty boy that will lead both the horde and the alliance against the void lords
Just wait, the Shadowlands story hasnt improved at all, it is just as bad as it was in WoD, Legion and BFA. Never seen a more incompetent villain than the Jailer.

An'u belore delen'na
Illidan incoming
Didnt know that Anduin is her favourite character I thought it was sylvanas. At least some hope that he wont turn evil. Thanks
After the revelation of Shala'mourne in the latest cinematic this prospect has become quite possible. Or at least this is what the Jailer wants Anduin to become. His herald into the realm of the living, preparing the way and such after both Arthas and Bolvar failed/did not comply.
If possible Anduin will naturally resist this and he has the willpower to do it for a while at least. Unless the writer want to poke us with one of Ilgynoth's prophecies:
"The Light has struck a bargain with the enemy of all."
Maybe Anduin will sacrifice himself for something, like Sylvanas's soul (ugh)... or maybe the Light actually allowed him to be captured in a bargain with the Jailer to use Anduin against all the other universal forces, leaving only Light and Death.
I am also relatively sure that the strange crystal the Jailer took from the small portal to be put into Shala'mourne will be important. It might even be a piece of Arthas's soul, who we know is somewhere in the Maw.
As for long term, no. I don't think that after this expansion we will still need a Lich King. The Scourge was made with the power of the Maw and Jailer (though they are more like Maldraxxi, because of the Runecarver), so his eventual demise will likely end the Scourge threat for good. Those undead without free will will likely just die or be freed and join the Forsaken.
"May the way of the Hero lead to the Triforce"
"May the Goddess smile upon you."
"Hero", is what they've all been saying. This world, it isn't worth the saving."
Watch him become lightbound undead like Calia so they can marry and unify the kingdoms of Lordaeron and Stormwind and have healthy undead babies.
Ooor not, Sylvanas pussied out and let Anduin free , in 9.1 we'll have a dungeon where we have to escape from thorgast and the Jailer , slooowly advancing and closing thorgast gates which Sylvanas will destroy while we hold off the Jailer's forces . In the end he catches up and snaps Sylvanas's neck using a force choke.
I believe it'll be Tyrande. She'll turn up just in time to save Anduin and Sylvanas will strike her with the mourneblade in self-defence instead of Anduin.
Anduin will 100% be the next Lich King. The question is whether he will go willingly or not.
WoW was not Morally grey. It was typical Good vs Evil high fantasy.
Anduin is the only character with consistency next to Baine. People hate him because he has an arch in which his character grows and evolves within the structure set for his morals and mindset.
People have this borderline childish obsession with their characters being broken shells of people who barely keep it together, maybe murders, maybe horrible people because modern media has no way of portraying any characters as just a good person. He's not even particularly powerful, he just has conviction in his beliefs. I am just tired of people screaming for a character arch to be ruined to sate their fetishizing of GoT tier trashy nihilistic writing. WoWs story is far far from original or even good but it has it's moments and characters, like Anduin.
...Ok, time to change the ol' Sig ^_^

lol how many of these threads do we have?
Nope. I think he will come out way later then we think he does. And will be a bit more like his father was during Wotlk a angry man.
I think they might even condem sylvanas to be it.
Well it certainly feels like that is the plan the Jailer has for him, but I don't know if the odds are very high it will actually happen.
The problem isn't Anduin being a goody goody two shoes, the problem is the entire universe bending and warping around in order to accomodate his naivety and his self righteousness. He's a prototypical Purity Sue, so of course he grows and evolves - at the cost of pretty much everyone else.
Oh, and as per Ion himself:
There’s a lot of story to tell going forward,” he said. “Both sides should be worried about this. Azeroth is a world of grey. It’s never been a world of black and white.
