Nintendo023 Archivesobsessed with dominating news headlines this week, huh?
Thursday's surprise Nintendo Direct livestream bundled a bunch of game announcements together with the news that Nintendo would launch its own mobile app for daily news-breaking purposes. Well, the first Nintendo Today! news drop is here, and it's a big one: The live-action The Legend of Zeldamovie will come out on March 26, 2027.
SEE ALSO: Switch 2 release date, price and everything else we expect from Nintendo DirectYou might be thinking, "There's a live-action Zeldamovie?" Well, yeah. Nintendo announced the project back in late 2023 with director Wes Ball (of The Maze Runnertrilogy) attached and no other information about it. We still don't know anything about casting, but at least now we know when it's supposed to come out.
Some kind of Zeldamovie was probably inevitable after the huge success of the 2023 Super Mario Bros.movie, but one has to wonder how exactly it will work. Zeldaseries protagonist Link famously doesn't speak out loud in the game, and I doubt they would adapt the recent Echoes of Wisdomgame with Zelda as the main protagonist this soon after its release.
Over the years, there have been plenty of big fantasy epics out of Hollywood, but Zeldaisn't really Lord of the Rings. It might be hard to get a big emotional climax out of Link figuring out how to solve a puzzle with a boomerang.
Still, as we wait for the Switch 2 Direct next week, we might as well ponder. Maybe Chris Pratt can star in this one, too.
