Warcraft: The Beginning, which is based on the popular computer game of the same name, has hit the big screen and sees Jones back in the director's chair for his first feature film since Source Code.

The director is currently waiting to see how the film performs at the box office but admits that there have been discussions about a trilogy of movies.

Speaking to io9, the director said: "Chris Benson and I have discussed in very loose term what the trilogy will be. We all want to relax after this film. It took three-and-a-half years. And we'll kind of get back into it if people like this film enough to warrant us having the chance to make a few more.

"The interesting thing is going to be the emphasis we spend on specific characters that may not be the same emphasis that's in the game. But again, that kind of gives us a little bit more flexibility and freedom to see things from perspective that follows the same lore, but sees it from a very different perspective than you saw it in the game."

Jones grabbed everyone's attention back in 2009 when he made his feature film directorial debut with sci-fi film Moon; before returning with Source Code.

Warcraft: The Beginning is the biggest film of his career and the first time that he has tackled a blockbuster project.

So far, the movie has grossed $304.7 million at the global box office - making back its $160 million budget - and is enjoying huge success in China.

The movie has also enjoyed success in the UK, topping the box office last weekend.

Warcraft: The Beginning is out now.
