## Summary

Nintendo has confirmed that its first live-action Legend of Zelda film will be titled simply "The Legend of Zelda" and will open in cinemas on 30 April 2027, unveiling the movie's first official logo during a Nintendo Direct presentation. The announcement marks a significant milestone for the 40-year-old franchise, giving it its first true big-screen outing and only its second screen adaptation overall, after brief animated segments in a 1989 television special. Nintendo has long been wary of film adaptations following the poorly received 1993 live-action Super Mario Bros. film, making this a cautious but high-profile step for the company as it finally brings one of gaming's biggest properties to cinemas.

The newly revealed logo prominently features the Triforce, the mystical artefact central to the series' mythology, and Nintendo has indicated the film will stay closer to its source material than past adaptations attempted. The Legend of Zelda centres on Link, a Hylian hero from the kingdom of Hyrule, who typically joins forces with Princess Zelda against the demonic sorcerer Ganon, who seeks to seize the Triforce and remake Hyrule in his own image. Beyond the title and logo, Nintendo has released no further details, such as casting or a full trailer, leaving fans to await further updates ahead of the 2027 release.
