Within the past couple of days, word has gotten around that The Legend of Zelda Live-Action Movie has officially wrapped filming. Other than hearing that the movie was filmed in New Zealand (which was exciting to us — The Legend of Zelda sharing film locations as The Lord of the Rings movies sounds fantastic), there really isn’t any other news about the movie itself.

No plot. Very few confirmed actors other than Zelda and Link themselves. Considering the sheer amount of lore that surrounds the Legend of Zelda franchises, anything can happen in this movie.

When I first heard about a live-action Legend of Zelda movie being in the works, I wasn’t sure what Nintendo could have been planning. Logically, Ocarina of Time is one of the most popular games of the franchise. It’s familiar, even to those who may not be avid gamers. The story is fairly linear, with plenty of fun characters and locations. Granted, the multitude of dungeons and fantasy enemies could easily have tipped the movie from live-action to mostly CGI and the movie would understandably be predictable. Multiple actors for Link may have been needed to go with the time traveling aspect of the game, but an easy sequel with Majora’s Mask would be right there, too.

(Including Tingle. Any ideas who would play Tingle in a Majora’s Mask-based movie?)

Wind Waker can be counted out. Considering the game’s setting and gimmick is sailing across the vast sea, it wouldn’t have been a logical choice for the movie, as fun as seeing the many islands could have been. Twilight Princess could have been a contender — and I think I would have adored seeing Midna — but having Link’s first appearance on the big screen with him as a wolf for the majority of the movie would not have been fair to the actor.

I would have enjoyed a Skyward Sword movie. It’s not the most popular of the games, no, but the sets themselves would have been a delight, as would the characters — Groose and his hair, a sassy Ghirahim, the large presence of Demise. The game itself is considered the “first” game in the timeline, which could have made sense as a gateway for a cinematic universe for the franchise.

A bit of a sillier wish, the Minish Cap could have been fun as a plot for the movie. I’m certain managing the sets and making Link seem as small as the Minish race would have been fun and showcase a ton of creativity by the production team. A grumpy Enzo would have been great to see on the big screen, too!

Of course, we have a few clues about the live-action movie with the production stills and images we have seen (and there was some supposedly leaked set footage back in November; beware of potential spoilers). Zelda’s clothes are reminiscent of her Breath of the Wild game appearance, and New Zealand’s lands would be a beautiful backdrop as a Hyrule that is learning to grow again after Calamity Ganon.

I enjoyed the Breath of the Wild games, and wouldn’t be opposed to a live-action movie based on that plot. Show me the Rito tribe, give me a giant Sidon with golden retriever energy, let me see how Hyrule’s citizens move on 100 years in the wake of a tragedy.

Yet, as crucial as she was to the story, Zelda was not as central in Breath of the Wild. She was seen in memories and in the final battle. I would hope that Zelda as a character would be more prominent in the franchise’s first live-action movie.

Perhaps this upcoming movie is about the Calamity that will happen. The hope of vanquishing Calamity Ganon is dashed by the time the credits roll, causing movie-goers angst but looking forward to a sequel. The movie could have a blend of Breath of the Wild, Age of Calamity, and Tears of the Kingdom wrapped into one.

It would be ambitious, sure, but so is creating a movie out of one of the most beloved video game franchises in the world.
