Nintendo
In the past many years, there have been rumors that Nintendo will work with Netflix to create a live-action series of “Zelda”. As early as the beginning of 2015,Wall Street JournalThis cooperation was exposed, saying that the two parties were preparing for a work similar to the “family sharing version of “Game of Thrones”.” But after so many years, fans did not wait for any results.The well-known actor and screenwriter Adam Conover (representative “BoJack Horseman”) recently appeared on YouTube The Serf Times At that time, they unexpectedly revealed some unknown stories behind this.
According to Conover, when he was working at College Humor many years ago, the team had planned to make a clay animation combining “Star Fox” and “Fantastic Mr. Fox”. At that time, the producer of “Zalda” Shigeru Miyamoto even came to CH’s office to discuss the details, but almost a month later, Conover heard the news of the cancellation of the plan.
After asking his boss, Conover got the following answer: “Someone on Netflix leaked the story of the “Legend of Zelda” episode. It stands to reason that they can’t talk about these things. Nintendo has quit. Everything is canceled, and the related plans for the whole thing are gone.”
If what Conover said is true, it can at least confirm that the live-action series of “Zelda” is indeed more than just rumors. The whole thing will make people feel very pity, after all, the old man will not easily agree to give out his IP to a third party. In the show, Conover also mentioned that after Netflix leaked the news this time, Nintendo became even less willing to cooperate with the outside world. To be honest, it is not incomprehensible that the old man would have such a reaction. But this year is the 35th anniversary of the “Zelda” series. If they can consider giving Netflix or another chance to another family, this should be a good time, and it should be good news for fans.
