Nintendo is teaming up withSony and Marvel producer Avi Aradfor a live-action The Legend of Zelda movie.

That’s the thing.
It’s like one of the last untapped properties that is dying for a cinematic treatment.
But we’ll see what happens.”
For Zelda, though, he might be facing the highest expectations of his career.
“Obviously you could’t have that while you’re making a thousand decisions a day.
