TLOZ live-action movie date moved up to April 30, 2027
Yesterday, Nintendo announced that the release of the live-action The Legend of Zelda movie has been moved up to April 30, 2027 (from May 7, 2027). I learned about it from a community post by ![[youtube.com profile]](https://youtube.com/favicon.ico)
Zeltik, who cited Mr. Miyamoto's tweet. It's now reported all over: Deadline, Polygon, IGN.
This is the movie's second date change. March 2027 was the original announced date; later, they pushed it to May, sliding into the vacated slot of a delayed MCU movie. But then the on-site New Zealand filming wrapped ahead of schedule, apparently giving them the opportunity to premiere just ahead of Japan's Golden Week holiday. Also, spring seems to be a less competitive box office window next year, as summer will bring Star Wars: Starfighter, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse (finally), Shrek 5 (don't care, but boy! Puss in Boots: The Last Wish was outstanding), [Superman:] Man of Tomorrow, and A Minecraft Movie 2 (um).
(Be good, be good, be good...)
