The Legend of Zelda: Movie Trailer Premier.

FROM IGN NOT MINE!

Legend of Zelda Movie Trailer Premiere
Your dreams realized.
by IGN Staff
April 1, 2008 - Few videogame properties hold the cache 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.

UPDATE
[EDITOR'S NOTE: April 2, 2008 - 12:01 a.m. PST. Yup, you guessed it. The Legend of Zelda trailer featured above is part of an elaborate April Fool's Day prank. Check back in later today for more details on the IGN/Rainfall Films collaboration that resulted in this "love it or hate it" piece of videogame movie history.]

[hiddendragon123]

@CamizaAzul I AGREE. that dude doesnt look like link at all

[lostcause444]

I am a huge Zelda fan. But I think that zelda would be tough to make into a movie, especially because link never talks....

[JupiterKairiZelda217]

I wish this movie was real, I would totally go see it

why IGN, why?! i thought i died and went to heaven when i first saw this trailer, and when i looked at the date (2008) i thought i was in hell. :(

[krazykoren]

Haha.. this is so great. See Ganondorf (Gregory Lee Kenyon) star in his newest movie, a post-apocalyptic short film trilogy called SWINE. Freakin' awesome. youtube.com / swinemovie

[mcgillswimmer]

So..Zelda is ugly..and seems like an old lady..

How about..no?

[Nintendoneeder]

This movie is friggin awesome...... IF IT WAS REAL!!!!!!

[Maruxx55]

If this movie were to actually get made i would of called a nuke on hollywood for being such a dumbass and messing up the hero of time. Plus they even made a stupid ass movie of dragon ball too and even Avatar the last airbender. THUMBS UP if you think Hollywood should try to make games and tv shows real life.
