Nintendo is aware of the high expectations fans have for the Zelda movie.
Nintendo 's Shigeru Miyamoto has given some clarity on the production of The Legend of Zelda movie. Nintendo is a company that doesn't really bend to trends very easily. It hasn't gotten in on the VR wave, it didn't chase the battle royale scene really, and it ultimately makes what it wants to make. However, Nintendo has decided to start adapting its properties into films, something many of us thought would probably never happen.
Earlier this week, it was confirmed The Legend of Zelda would be getting a live action film courtesy of director Wes Ball and Sony. Nintendo will finance half of the film's production and Shigeru Miyamoto confirmed at the time it had been in the works for years at that point. As of right now, there is no cast, but it sounds like Nintendo is confident in in after releasing The Super Mario Bros. Movie earlier this year.
"Regarding the live-action film of The Legend of Zelda, I know we face an extremely high hurdle in producing a film that will not disappoint the global fan base," said Miyamoto. With this challenge in mind, I have been discussing this project with Avi Arad, Chairman of Arad Productions Inc., for about 10 years. Movies are just like games, in that you need to spend a lot of time working on them until you get to something you're satisfied with.
As of right now, Nintendo has yet to address when the movie will release, who will star in it, or if it will directly adapt any of the games. The Super Mario Bros. Movie didn't adapt any games directly, but it's possible Zelda will since it is far more story driven than the Mario franchise.
