Nintendo and Sony Pictures have announced a live-action 'Legend of Zelda' movie, directed by Wes Ball and written by Derek Connolly. The film is currently in its early development stages.
The film announcement follows the success of Nintendo's 'Super Mario Bros.' movie. However, some fans have expressed concerns about the adaptation of the beloved gaming franchise, citing Hollywood's history of unsuccessful video game adaptations.
The film's producer, Avi Arad, has a mixed track record with blockbuster franchises, raising eyebrows among fans. Derek Connolly, known for co-writing the 'Jurassic World' trilogy, is also a point of concern for some fans.
'Euphoria' star Hunter Schafer has been fan-casted for the role of Princess Zelda, and she has expressed interest in the role, stating that she played the game as a child and still plays it now.
The plot of the movie is still unknown, but fans speculate it will follow the general storyline of the games, with Link and Princess Zelda teaming up to prevent the warlord Ganon from conquering the kingdom of Hyrule.
