CinemaCon is currently taking place in Las Vegas and Sony Pictures had a small bit of news to share about the upcoming The Legend of Zelda film during their panel. Co-produced by Nintendo and directed by Wes Ball, filming has officially wrapped in New Zealand for the live-action adaptation. Now moving into post-production, The Legend of Zelda hits theaters on 7th May 2027, with Benjamin Evan Ainsworth starring as Link and Bo Bragason as Princess Zelda.
The Legend of Zelda movie has wrapped filming
I can’t wait to see this! I’m excited to see all the side characters come to life on the big screen.
I know asking for my goat Tingle is probably too much lol… but I’d love to see Beetle, at some point!
I am happy to hear they’ve wrapped up filming, and I imagine we’ll get our first trailer this summer ☀️
While I would have preferred Nintendo and Universal to go the animated route, I still have high hopes for this movie 🎬
I still think LoZ would fare better as an episodic series- I can’t imagine them being able to fit an entire Zelda experience into a ~2 hour movie when the games take so much longer, even without side content (and disregarding speedruns, obviously).
That’s a fair take
I’m glad Zelda is a female. 😁
Oh no, Dark Samus what have you done!?! Based on previous zelda movie articles, people would say the same thing you are saying, and then it triggers a politcal dumpster fire comment section. Hopefully the idiotic politicains wont see your comment and go crazy. I am not even that mad at you, I am just scared of what is to come.

Looks like we’ve got the next Charlie Kirk here folks.
Does your neck feel painful? It will soon. 😊
I wanted a normal comment section today! Hopefully SickR will delete these comments before this fully dissolves into chaos.
Person A: “I’m glad female character is female.”
Person B: “You deserve to be shot and [censored].”
Lades and gentlemen, who is the normal person here? Person A or Person B?
Playing stupid? You know exactly what they meant by saying that.
Guessing you’re just yet another worthless transphobe.
Y’all will get what you deserve, just like Kirk did.
If you intentionally spread hate to marginalised groups, you don’t deserve mercy.
Wait… The irony of someone saying people who disagree with them deserve to die is the person saying others are spreading hate.
You can’t make this stuff up.
You know, using a smiling emoji doesn’t make you not seem like an evil person. It actually makes you seem more evil because it’s like your psychotic. Coupled that with the paranoid language and death threats and… jeez, you lose any veneer of virtue. Seriously, I’m not even trying to put you down here or anything. Please reconsider your language if you’re not just being a troll here.
Person A is. Wishing death upon someone for wanting a fictional character to be played by an actor of the same gender is insanity.
His name is twink and he’s obviously male…..
Please be based on Ocarina of time.
@Mason – The reason the games take longer is because of all the dungeons. Nobody would want to sit though a 8 hour series or movie watching Link collect endless keys in dungeons 😂
It will be done like the Mario bros movie, nice and simple.
There should be puzzles, no cool puzzles then no watching!
Well don’t watch it then lol 😂
Beyond excited for this. Will be taking my 12 year old with me to see it. He’s just played a couple Zelda games, hoping this spurs more interest for him 😁
They have to at least include this song during the end credits, i remember the concert when the singer mentioned ‘epona is also the horse from the legend of zelda’ and everyone lost their shit.

I truly hope Link doesn’t speak… Can’t lose its magic and touch just because a couple of kids who were born after 2010 don’t know anything about the saga.
I hope it winds up looking better than the shooting picture we’ve seen – it looks like pretty amateurish at the moment
