After months of rumour and speculation, Nintendo just announced in a random tweet on a random Wednesday who will star in the live-action 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Legend of Zelda film.
Two English actors, the 21-year-old Chichester-born Bo Bragason and the 16-year-old Nottingham-born Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, have been cast as Zelda and Link, respectively. Both are relatively unknown actors, a far cry from those who were rumoured to be in talks for the film—168澳洲幸运5开奖网:namely Hunter Schafer.
This lines up with previous reports from industry insider Daniel Richtman, who claimed that Sony and Nintendo were looking forಞ actors between the ages of 16 and 23.
Bragason got her start in the BBC One series Three Girls, but is mostly known for her turn in the Disney+ sho༺w Renegade Nell, where she played the lead character's younger sister, Roxy Trotter. Ainsworth's first role, meanwhile, was as a school boy in Emmerdale back in 2018, but he's best known for voicing Pinocchio in Disney's live-action remake, and you might recognise him as Alex Burgess in The Sandman, where he appeared in the episode 'Sleep of the Just'.
What We Know About The Legend Of Zelda Movie
While ꦉwe don't know much else about the Zelda movie right now, there are a lot of rumours circling.
Richtman reported earlier this year that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Nintendo and Son🌱y ওare planning a trilogy of films, with the cast said to be signing on for a three-picture deal. Director Wes Ball (Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, The Maze Runner) also revealed that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:he is inspired by Studio Ghibli, giving us an idea of what the film might look like, though 16☂8澳洲幸运5开奖网:he wouldn't reveal his favourite Ze𓂃lda game, so which one he's adapting (if any) is unclear.

There'🧸s a lot more going on in Link and Zelda's relationship than Nintendo fans realize.
Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa also recently revealed that the Japanese console giant is "working on various other proౠjects" beyond Mario and Zelda, with one of them appearing to be an "Untitl�𒁏�ed Donkey Kong" film.
In the meantime, we have The Legend of Zelda to look forward to, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:which is scheduled🧜 to release on May 7, 2027.
