The Legend of Zelda communityꦉ sound really keen on Hunter Schafer playing the titular priꦦncess in the new movie.

Nintendo announced a 澳洲幸运5开ℱ奖号码历史查🌟询:new movie based on The Legend of Zelda was in development, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:it didn't 🌳take long for the fan-casting to ꩲbegin. Practically from the time the movie adaptation was announced, Zelda fans have been clamouring for actor Hu♔nter Schafer to play the titular role.

The actor is, if you didn't already know, widely known for portraying Jules Vaughn on the HBO series Euphoria. Schafer also has a writing credit on one episode in the series, and has directed two music videos over the last two years. Her next role will come later this month in The Hunger🤪 Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.

But yes, Zelda fans are really eager for Schafer to take up the role of Zelda in the new movie. The fans seem to be usin🍨g Zelda's design from Twilight Princess to point out how similar Schafer looks to the character - she's even sort of gotܫ the elf-ears down already.

There's also another name on the lips of fans, but for a different role: Morgan Davies as Link. You might know th𝓰e Australian actor from Evil Dead Rise and the ♏debut One Piece season on Netflix, and the tweet below thinks Davies could definitely tackle the 'twink' angle of Link.

What we do know so far is that director Wes Ball will helm the Zelda movie adaptation, with veteran Avi Arad producing the adaptation. Nintendo legend Shigeru Miyamoto will also be tackling the adaptation, likely in a similar producing role to the one he had on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Super Mario Bros Movie earlier this year. 

The list of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming video game movies just keeps getting longer with the new announcement from Nintendo.
