Big news just dropped for fans of Nintendo’s iconic franchise! The first official images from the upcoming live-action “Legend of Zelda” movie are here, and they show Bo Bragason stepping into the legendary role of Princess Zelda.
Released on the Nintendo Today app, the photos give fans a first glimpse of Bo Bragason and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link. In one stunning image, Zelda holds her bow and arrow while Link stands beside her in his classic green outfit, both sporting signature Hylian ears. The setting? A breathtaking green field straight out of Hyrule.
The film is directed by Wes Ball, known for The Maze Runner and Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes.
