Production
The idea of a Runescape film was thought up as a joke in 2008, however, only a couple months after the joke post, the film was being considered. On January 8th 2009, Jagex made a post about the film stating "Merry Christmas! Oh wait a second, it's January already? Anyways, we're happy to announce that we are indeed working on a Runescape live-action film. Remember two sentences ago when we addressed how fast time flies? Well, during the production of this film, the time will continue to fly even faster, so be patient, a Runescape film is just around the corner!". On June 2009, the film's director had been revealed, stating that the film's script will please any fan of the videogame! In Comic-Con 2012, a short teaser was shown, and a poster was revealed, with more information being talked about. The next Comic-Con, a second teaser was shown, with the film's release date being revealed to April 5th 2014. On September 30th 2013, Jagex had revealed that the release date was pushed to Winter 2014, because of production mishaps. On December 2nd 2013, a poster had been spotted in a press-conference, displaying a very early logo of the film. On February 23rd 2014, another very early mock-up poster was also spotted. On May 6th 2014, a teaser trailer was revealed, and so through out 2014, more trailers, sneak peaks and TV-spots would be revealed, with the film premiering on December 5th 2014.
