Nintendo Announces Live Action Legend of Zelda Movie in the Works with Morbius Producer - Hardcore Gamer
Even before the initial announcement of the Super Mario Bros. Movie Nintendo had begun to show more and more interest in moving into more purely visual media from shows to movies. With the insanely hit success that was Super Mario Bros. it comes as no surprise that more plans for future franchise adaptions were likely underway. We’ve seen hints of potentially more coming for Mario, but one other major franchise that seemed likely to crop up was The Legend of Zelda. Fans have discussed this at length online, but the direction it could take was unknown. Many wanted an actual episodic series covering the various games, while many were hoping for some sort of anime be it movie or long form series. Today we’ve gotten our very first look at what’s to come for new Zelda media and it’s taken the form of a planned live action film. While we don’t have many details on this revelation just yet, the news dropped without much fanfare at all coming directly from Nintendo’s official twitter account of all places in both Japanese and English.
