The primary photos 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 photos in its Nintendo Immediately app right this moment as a part of just a little teaser indicating that filming has formally commenced. One picture reveals Hyperlink and Zelda with the luxurious backdrop of New Zealand behind them, whereas the others are close-ups on the characters themselves.

There wasn’t the rest to go together with these pictures in addition to the be aware that the movie arrives on Could 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 price noting right here. One, Hyperlink is in his signature inexperienced tunic slightly 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 probability, the film gained’t stick with anybody specific timeline or story however as an alternative mash every part 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 spite of everything, and the titular character actually deserves to smack down some moblins. I’m positive we’re all longing for extra particulars — however provided that filming has simply began, we’re most likely going to be ready some time for a correct trailer.
