Last week there has been a leaked footage of the live-action production for the upcoming Zelda movie. Today Nintendo has reacted by confirming the whole thing on social media.
Filming is underway for the live-action film of The Legend of Zelda in a lush, natural setting, with Bo Bragason-san who will play Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth-san who will play Link. Filming is on track for the film’s release on May 7, 2027. It will take a while until the release, so we would be grateful if you would wait patiently and look forward to it.
Yes, please wait patiently and don't disturb the film shootings!
In the leak you can also spot Dichen Lachman as Impa, which is an awesome choice. I liked her a lot in Dollhouse, if anyone still remembers that show (I do barely). But she's also in the cast of Severance, which is on my watch list.
And so far this is looking quite nice. The landscapes in New Zealand are very beautiful for this. They have made for a good Middle Earth, and they will make for a good Hyrule.
What I'm most curious about is how they will handle the different tribes, like the Gorons and the Zora, but I'm not expecting to see any of that in the near future. Maybe we will see a first trailer by the end of next year...
