Any potential Call of Duty movie would not be Activision Blizzard's first foray into the world of film: the company released a World of Warcraft motion picture, simply called Warcraft, in 2016. Warcraft went on to be the highest-grossing video game movie ever, earning $337 million at the worldwide box office, though it was a critical failure. However it should be noted that Warcraft was licensed out to a third-party studio, Legendary Pictures, while the Call of Duty films will seemingly be produced in house.
