'The Legend of Zelda' Live-Action Movie, Official Image Released During Filming

〈The Legend of Zelda〉 has become a hot topic with images from the filming site.

The movie 〈The Legend of Zelda〉 is a live-action adaptation of Nintendo Co., Ltd.'s legendary game series 'The Legend of Zelda', and has been identified as the next project in Nintendo's media mix following 〈Super Mario Brothers〉. It is reported that filming has officially begun nearly two years after the production announcement in 2023.

Nintendo released an official image announcing that filming for 〈The Legend of Zelda〉 is underway on November 17. The close-up of Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, who plays the protagonist Link, and Bo Bragason, who plays Zelda, captures an unusual atmosphere. Benjamin voiced Pinocchio in the live-action movie starring Tom Hanks, 〈Pinocchio〉, and appeared as Roxy in the 8-part drama 〈Renegade Nell〉.

〈The Legend of Zelda〉 is being produced with the involvement of the original developer and Nintendo CEO Shigeru Miyamoto. It is expected to be released around May 2027.
