The primary pictures from The Legend of Zelda film are right here

Over the weekend, unofficial movies from filming of Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda movie hit the internet, and now we’re getting our first correct have a look at Hyperlink and Zelda. Nintendo launched three pictures in its Nintendo As we speak app at the moment as a part of somewhat teaser indicating that filming has formally commenced. One picture exhibits Hyperlink and Zelda with the plush backdrop of New Zealand behind them, whereas the others are close-ups on the characters themselves.

There wasn’t anything to go together with these pictures apart from the notice that the movie arrives on Might 7, 2027 as previously announced. Hyperlink is performed by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, whereas whereas Bo Bragason stars as Zelda.

Regardless of the minimal particulars, there are some things value noting right here. One, Hyperlink is in his signature inexperienced tunic quite than the blue garb he primarily wears in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. Zelda, however, is rocking the blue. So good luck determining what period of the sport we’re in. In all chance, the film gained’t keep on with anyone specific timeline or story however as a substitute mash every little thing as much as create a brand new entry that stands by itself.

Much more thrilling is the truth that Zelda is armed with a bow, giving me hope that she’ll be greater than only a damsel in misery. It’s 2025, in any case, and the titular character actually deserves to smack down some moblins. I’m certain we’re all anticipating extra particulars — however on condition that filming has simply began, we’re in all probability going to be ready some time for a correct trailer.
