"Nintendo Cinematic Universe incoming?! 👀" a fan said.
After Marvel and DC, it looks like we have a new cinematic universe incoming, as this fan points out - the Nintendo Cinematic Universe! That could mean we might see other Nintendo games like Fire Emblem and Monster Hunter getting live-action adaptations, too!

This seems to be the most popular choice among fans for the casting of Link and Zelda in The Legend of Zelda movie - Tom Holland and Anya Taylor-Joy! And as this fan points out, they seem to fit the characters’ shoes perfectly.
"Please. Just don’t make Link talk too much. Let the Master Sword do the speaking," wrote another.
This user has no interest in hearing Link speak dialogues and would much rather see his sword do the talking. After all, he’s an exceptional swordsman in the games!

Many fans have been wondering why Nintendo chose a live-action adaptation instead of an animated movie for The Legend of Zelda. Well, looks like we’ll find out in about two years!
"He MUST say "Well EXCUSE me, princess" at least once!!!" another commented.

Link has become quite the internet joke among Zelda fans for saying, “Well, excuse me, princess!” too many times. So, as this fan suggests, it has to be carried over into the live-action too!
