Following the tremendous success of The Super Mario Bros Movie in 2023, Nintendo confirmed that it was collaborating with Sony Pictures on a live-action Legend of Zelda film.
But while news about the production side of things has been rather open thus far, we haven't had any news at all on the film's casting – until now.
In a statement put out by Nintendo, is has been confirmed that Link will be played by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, while Zelda will be played by Bo Bragason.

Unlike Ainsworth, Bragason actually already has a gaming credit to her name, appearing in a minor role in the 2021 animated film Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV.
But with the selection of Ainsworth and Bragason, it appears that the film will be adapting one of the less dark Zelda stories, perhaps continuing to aim for a younger audience.
As yet, it hasn't been confirmed how much the film will draw from the lore and story of the games or whether the studio will be aiming for an entirely new tale to tell.
