The Legend of Zelda stands as one of Nintendo’s most robust franchises, with millions of copies sold, numerous critically acclaimed titles, and a timeless protagonist who has become an icon in gaming history.

After witnessing the recent triumph of the Super Mario movie, it’s no surprise that fans are eagerly clamoring for a film adaptation. And it seems their wishes might just come true! Reliable sources have disclosed that Nintendo is already collaborating with Illumination to bring the highly anticipated Zelda movie to life.

Nintendo And Illumination Apparently Working On Zelda Movie

With the hype surrounding The Legend of Zelda at an all-time high and Tears of the Kingdom already receiving accolades as the game of the year, one could make a strong case for this being the perfect moment to unveil a live action adaptation of the beloved franchise.

Video game adaptations have been proven to be successful and profitable, as seen with the Super Mario movie.

However, there has been ongoing debate about the possibility of the movie actually coming to fruition.

New rumors have recently emerged, courtesy of a leaker named Zippo. According to Zippo, Nintendo is currently in the early stages of developing the first movie for the beloved Legend of Zelda franchise, along with a spin-off centered around Luigi.

Up until now, Zippo has had a satisfactory history with Nintendo. However, it is important to bear in mind that these are still just rumors.

Zippo’s recent blog post unveils some exclusive insights from inside sources, asserting that Illumination is currently involved in several exciting Nintendo ventures, among which is the highly awaited Zelda movie.

I have personally verified through reliable sources that Illumination is currently working on a Zelda movie and a spin-off centered around Luigi.

Based on what I’ve heard, it seems that Zelda will be a fusion of various Zelda games, rather than simply adapting one specific game such as Ocarina of Time, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, and so on.

Furthermore, Link will indeed communicate through speech.

Zippo acknowledges that although this may raise our expectations, the ongoing strikes of the WGA and SAG in Hollywood necessitate a complete halt in production.

If it weren’t for the WGA strike, Zippo suggests that Nintendo would have already made their new projects public in June.
