Sources say Nintendo is producing four films, including the sequel to Mario and the Legend of Zelda.
CTOnews.com, July 17 (Xinhua)-- Zippo, a well-known Nintendo whistleblower, said that Nintendo is producing four films, namely, the sequel to the Super Mario Brothers Movie, the Great King Kong, the Legend of Zelda and Luigi.
CTOnews.com learned from Zippo that the Legend of Zelda film is not a direct adaptation, but a fusion of successive works such as Flute of time, staff of the Wind and Princess Twilight, and that the protagonist Link can speak.
Unfortunately, WGA and the screen Actors Guild went on strike at the same time, which means that Hollywood is almost completely shut down, and few programs and films are being written or produced. Plans for Nintendo and Universal Pictures have been suspended, and if there had been no strike, Nintendo would have announced film plans as early as June.
Nintendo / Universal is expected to release "King Kong" on Christmas Day 2025 and a sequel to the Super Mario Brothers Movie in 2026, but the situation is unclear and the release schedule may be adjusted, Zippo said.
