Nintendo has officially set a worldwide release date for the highly anticipated live-action Legend of Zelda movie: March 26, 2027. The announcement, made via Nintendo’s new app, confirms that the film will be co-produced by Nintendo and Sony Pictures, with Wes Ball—best known for directing the Maze Runner trilogy and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes—attached as director.
While the title will remain faithful to the beloved video game franchise, key details like casting and storyline are still under wraps. Shigeru Miyamoto, the legendary creator of Zelda, is on board as producer alongside Avi Arad, known for his work on the Spider-Man films.
Nintendo’s move to bring Zelda to the big screen follows the massive box office success of The Super Mario Bros. Movie and signals a broader push into live-action adaptations. As speculation swirls about who will portray Link, Zelda, and Ganondorf, fans are left waiting for more details on how this epic fantasy will be translated for theaters worldwide.
