The Legend of Zelda live-action adaptation, which will be released on May 7th, 2027, will be directed by Wes Ball.

The live-action “The Legend of Zelda” movie is shifting its release date back a few months due to “production reasons,” Nintendo announced on Monday. The film will now hit theaters on May 7, 2027, a little over a month after its original March 26, 2027, release date.

The film was originally slated for a March 26, 2027 release date – so less than two months ain't too bad. A live-action, feature-length adaptation of The Legend of Zelda was announced back in 2023, with Wes Ball at the helm. Nintendo randomly dropped the initial March release date via their new app earlier this year.
