Director de la película de acción real de Zelda: “Quiero cumplir los mayores deseos de las personas”

Hollywood is adapting Nintendo’s La leyenda de Zelda series into a película de acción real and while there’s plenty of excitement about the upcoming film there’s also some concern.

With this in mind, the film’s director Wes Ball (known for the Maze Runner trilogy) has told Total Film how he understands just how “important” the Zelda franchise is to fans and aims to “fulfil people’s greatest desires”.

He’s also provided fans an idea of what to expect – explaining how he wants it to be a “grave” y “real movie” while offering a sense of escapism:

“That’s the thing I want to try to create – it’s got to feel like something real. Something serious and cool, but fun and whimsical.”

De vuelta en diciembre, the Zelda live-action director mentioned how he wanted the film to feel a bit like a “live-action Miyazaki” movie, referencing Studio Ghibli works like Hecho desaparecer. Ball also mentioned at the time how he’s a big fan of the Zelda series.

A principios de este año, Sony’s CEO chimed in – noting the Zelda movie would deliver “an amazing tale of adventure and discovery”.

Apart from Wes Ball’s involvement, it’s been confirmed Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has been working with producer Avi Arad on the film, with Sony co-financing the project.
