UPDATE: A leaked video from the set of the highly anticipated movie “The Legend of Zelda” has just surfaced, showcasing actors Bo Bragason as Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link in full, video-accurate costumes. This exciting reveal is causing a stir among fans eager for the film’s official trailer.
Set in New Zealand, where principal photography is currently underway, the video was posted on social media and features a scene that hints at action, including a horse riding segment. This leak comes just as anticipation builds for the adaptation of the beloved video game “Breath of the Wild,” released in 2017.
In the footage shared on Instagram, both characters look strikingly similar to their video game counterparts, raising excitement about the film’s fidelity to the original material.
“Fans are thrilled to see Link and Zelda brought to life in such authentic costumes,”
said a source close to the production.
While details about the plot remain scarce, speculation is rampant that the notorious villain Ganondorf will feature prominently in the story. However, casting announcements for this key role have yet to be confirmed. As video game adaptations gain popularity, films like the “Sonic” series and “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” have proven box office hits, further elevating expectations for “The Legend of Zelda.”
One of the most intriguing aspects of this adaptation is whether Link will be given a voice. Traditionally, Link is known for his minimal dialogue, primarily expressing himself with grunts and battle cries. Fans are divided on the potential for a more talkative portrayal, especially considering the director Wes Ball may choose to change this aspect significantly.
As fans digest this latest development, the question remains: will the film stay true to the essence of the game? With the stakes high and expectations soaring, “The Legend of Zelda” movie is already shaping up to be a major talking point in the entertainment world.
As we await further updates, fans can look forward to more leaks and announcements. Stay tuned for more on this developing story and be sure to check back for the trailer release date.
