Wes Ball gives Zelda fans a hint at how he'll approach the Nintendo adaptation.

Last year, Nintendo and Sony announced a live-action movie based on The Legend of Zelda. So far, details have been kept well under wraps, but we do know that the film will be directed by Wes Ball . Ball also happens to be the director of Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, which is set to arrive in theaters this month. As part of that film's promotion, Ball took part in a Reddit AMA, where he was asked quite a few questions about Zelda.

It will be interesting to watch how these lessons carry over, especially once both films have been released. Obviously, Ball's comments don't give fans much to go on right now, but the director did note that"I love Zelda and I'll work my ass off to make something great for us." Bringing Nintendo Games to the Big ScreenBall's take on The Legend of Zelda will mark just the second time a Nintendo property has gotten a live-action adaptation, following 1993's Super Mario Bros. movie. The failure of that movie convinced Nintendo to steer clear of Hollywood adaptations for decades. Thankfully, things have changed quite a bit since then, as video game adaptations have become increasingly lucrative.
