The Legend of Zelda
HQ Trailer




Based off of the popular video game series.

A quiet man by the name of Link, finds out that it is his destiny to become the
hero of time, and must travel seven years into the past to bring peace back to
the Kingdom of Hyrule. Along his journey he faces an army of minions, and
defeat an unspeakable evil known as Ganondorf.



Few videogame properties hold the cachet of The Legend of Zelda. As a film project,
it's on the scale of Lord of the Rings. But no one has tackled a live-action adaptation
of the storied franchise… until today. Production Company Rainfall Films has asked
IGN to premiere the very first footage from their live-action Zelda film — a very literal
adaptation of the magical epic — and, of course, we said, "Yes!"

Much like the indie gem Cloverfield, this project has been shrouded in secrecy and
details kept close to the vest. What we do know is that the film is being written and
directed by newcomer Sam Balcomb. Going the route of Star Wars: Episode IV, this
production decided to cast all unknowns in the iconic roles. Link is played by JR
Killigrew, Camille C. Brown portrays a very Elven Princess Zelda, and Gregory Lee
Kenyon stars as Ganondorf. You may, however, recognize Camden Toy (see TV's
Buffy and Angel) in the supporting role as Sahasrahla.

"April Fools" or "What If"



Editorial: Zelda on the Big Screen
You've seen our "what if?" trailer. But really, what if? We explore the possibility.
by Matt Casamassina

April 2, 2008 - Okay, so the jig is up: Our Legend of Zelda movie trailer was an
elaborate April Fool's joke. Did we get you? Judging by some of the thousands
of responses in the comments field of the article and across a wide assortment
of message boards, at least a few of you out there fell for it. And we can't really
blame you, either – the team at Rainfall Films put together a pretty convincing
spot. Hey – bare minimum, it beats the pants off anything Uwe Boll has ever
attached his name to (and we apologize to Rainfall for that
unnecessary comparison.)
