Eish! The wait is finally over, South Africa! We've got our first proper look at the live-action 'Legend of Zelda' movie, and it's looking lekke! Nintendo dropped the first official images, and let's just say, the internet is going bos!
Link and Zelda: A First Glimpse
The photos, released via the Nintendo Today app, show Bo Bragason as Princess Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link. They're standing in a seriously lush, green setting – think proper South African landscape, but maybe a bit more... Hyrule-y? Zelda's rocking her signature bow and arrow, and both actors are kitted out with Hylian ears. Ai, this is going to be good!
What We Know So Far
- The Cast: Benjamin Evan Ainsworth is Link, and Bo Bragason plays Zelda.
- Release Date: Mark your calendars for May 7, 2027. That's a long wait, but worth it, bra!
- Setting: Filming has kicked off in New Zealand, providing a backdrop that screams adventure.
One thing that's got everyone talking is Zelda wielding a bow. Hopefully, this means she'll be more than just a damsel in distress. It's 2025, after all, and Princess Zelda deserves to kick some bokoblin butt!
While details are still scarce, the fact that filming has officially started is massive. We're probably going to have to wait a while for a trailer, but these first images are enough to get any Zelda fan amped. Stay tuned for more updates as they come, South Africa! This movie is going to be epic!
