Nintendo has announced its plans to make a live-action film adaptation of its popular action-adventure franchise, The Legend Of Zelda.First introduced in 1986, the fantasy series has become a cornerstone of the Nintendo brand, with 19 official games across multiple platforms (including this year’s well-received Tears Of The Kingdom), manga comics, a short-lived animated series, and character appearances in other popular series like Super Smash Bros.Though each Legend Of Zelda game is its own epic quest, their stories center on a (notably twinky) elven hero named Link who frequently must fight to save the Kingdom Of Hyrule—and its gorgeous Princess Zelda—from all kinds of dark forces, including the evil sorcerer Ganon (a.k.a Ganondorf).The blend of high-fantasy, open-world adventure, and iconic characters has made the series especially popular among LGBTQ+ fans, so it’s safe to say the film announcement was huge news for gaymers everywhere.The thirst is real.No plot details have been revealed yet—though lord knows there are plenty of sagas to draw from, like the apocalyptic N64 throwback Majora’s Mask or the sea-faring The Wind Waker.What we do know is that Nintendo has tapped filmmaker Wes Ball to helm the project.

Best known as the director behind the Maze Runner series (and the upcoming Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes), it seems Ball has been manifesting this for quite some time, which is pretty sweet!Since I could never even hope to have the chance to direct it… the next big mo-cap Avatar-like movie should be… THE LEGEND OF ZELDA.But the real tea is who could possibly play The Legend Of Zelda‘s beloved heroes and villains, bringing them to life on the big screen.
