What's up Geekly Goods fam! 👀 Big news, Zelda fans! We've got a wave of new castings for the live-action Legend of Zelda movie, and it's a lot to take in.
Starting with Dichen Lachman, officially confirmed to play Impa, Princess Zelda's Sheikah bodyguard and advisor, something fans had speculated about for months after she was spotted in set photos. Next up, Uli Latukefu has been cast as the villainous Ganondorf, bringing his commanding physical presence to the role. And finally, in what's genuinely a bittersweet reveal, the legendary Sam Neill filmed a role in this movie before sadly passing away on July 13th after battling blood cancer, meaning this will stand as one of his final on-screen performances.
His exact role hasn't been confirmed, but fans and reporters are speculating he could be playing the King of Hyrule, especially since Yvonne Strahovski has also joined the cast as a queen character. If Neill really is stepping into the King of Hyrule role, that feels like about as perfect a casting as this franchise could ask for.
The Legend of Zelda live-action movie is set to release April 30th, 2027, and we're finally getting real information about this world coming together. Are you excited for this film?
