Nintendo's new news app reveals the first big info: the theatrical release of the upcoming Legend of Zelda film

The Legend of Zelda film has a theatrical release, but we still need a little patience.

At the Nintendo Direct yesterday Thursday, everything was actually about the games that still appear for the first switch. In addition, the company has also announced a few more things, including a new news app that keeps you up to date with everything around Nintendo.

Anyone who thought that the information already already known would have to be caught up: Nintendo apparently wants to prove the opposite and knocks out the theatrical release of the upcoming THE LEGEND OF ZELDA film directly for the release of the app.

As early as 2023, it was announced that the Legend of Zelda franchise will receive a live action adaptation, i.e. filmed with real actors. Since then, however, it looked pretty much with information about the film-at least until now, now Nintendo has just revealed when the film was growing through his new news app "Nintendo Today.

  • When does the Legend of Zelda film come to the cinemas?On March 26, 2027

Even if it is gratifying that we finally have a worldwide released date, the two years of waiting time are of course also a small dampers. After all, the film appears much earlier than feared. So far we only knew that he should appear before 2030 at some point.

In addition, there is still a few information. So we don't know anything concrete about the story or who will slip into the roles of Zelda, Link and Co.

After all, it is known that the direction of Wes Ball is taken over and Shigeru Miyamoto is acting as a producer. In addition, the film is financed by Nintendo and Sony Pictures Entertainment.

We summarize all the information about the film known so far:

The fact that Nintendo with its new app drops such an info is quite clear how serious the company seems to be with the app. As before, we will probably get really big announcements and revelations on social media platforms such as X and Co.

It would even be conceivable that Nintendo will be completely on the app in the future, for example to announce showcases or Switch 2-news. But of course that remains to be seen.

What would you prefer: that the Legend of Zelda film adapted an existing story or tells a new story?
