The movie’s itemizing on the Movie and Tv Trade Alliance (FTIA) web site has seen a standing replace this week, with the previous “Pre-Manufacturing” stamp altering to the rather more promising “In Manufacturing” — that is what we wish to see.
The primary filming location is listed on the location as Wellington, New Zealand, a typical spot for bringing fantasy lands to the massive display screen, as beforehand used for The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Avatar and King Kong.
The FTIA gives the next mission abstract for the upcoming film:

To cease him, Hyperlink should embark on a deadly journey, battling monstrous creatures, exploring treacherous dungeons, and fixing intricate puzzles to uncover sacred artifacts that may help him in his quest.
After all, we have recognized for some time that the Zelda film can be capturing in New Zealand in November 2025, but it surely’s thrilling to see that manufacturing standing change!
The movie is ready to launch on seventh Could 2027 — assuming there are not any extra delays. The one casting that we all know of to date is Renegade Nell‘s Bo Bragason as Princess Zelda and The Haunting of Bly Manor‘s Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Hyperlink, however we might be stunned if we do not get a couple of extra face reveals within the subsequent yr or so.
