Fri Mar 28 18:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Zelda Movie Gets 2027 Release Date
**Kyoto, Japan** – Nintendo fans rejoice! The long-awaited live-action adaptation of *The Legend of Zelda* will hit theaters worldwide on **March 26, 2027**. The announcement was made exclusively via Nintendo’s new “Nintendo Today” app, launched during yesterday’s Nintendo Direct presentation.
The film, a co-production between Nintendo and Sony Pictures Entertainment, was first announced in November 2023. Series creator Shigeru Miyamoto is serving as a producer, alongside Avi Arad (known for his work on the *Spider-Man* and *Uncharted* franchises). While details remain scarce, Nintendo has confirmed its significant involvement in the film’s plot and direction.
The March 26th, 2027 date marks a two-year wait for fans, but expectations are high following the box office success of other Nintendo adaptations. *Detective Pikachu* grossed $433 million in 2019, while *The Super Mario Bros. Movie* soared past $1.36 billion in 2023, becoming one of the highest-grossing films ever. Sony Pictures Entertainment will handle worldwide distribution for the Zelda film.
