While I do love talking to actors about their movies, I like playing games with them more. When I went to interview the cast of Warcraft: The Beginning, in between asking them very serious movie-based questions, I tested their WoW knowledge with a little game called: Is it a Warcraft sword name or a heavy metal band? It's honestly harder than it sounds. 

Turns out Travis Fimmel, who plays Anduin Lothar in the film, knows his heavy metal bands, while everyone else struggled a little bit more. Watch how they did in the video below and see if you can guess correctly before they do.

Directed by Duncan Jones and starring Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster, Dominic Cooper, Toby Kebbell, and Ben Schnetzer, Warcraft: The Beginning is out in the UK now and will hit the US on June 10, 2016.
