A Zelda movie may not be out of the question. At the very least, series producer Eiji Aonuma says he’s “talked about” the subject with creator Shigeru Miyamoto.
If we were to see a Zelda film, it wouldn’t be your typical viewing event. Aonuma told Kotaku that Nintendo would to “make it more interactive, like you’re able to take your 3DS into the theater and that leads you into participating in it somehow.”
Aonuma added, “We wouldn’t want to make it the same as any other movie. We want to somehow change what a movie is.”
“This is something that me and Mr. Miyamoto talked about. If we were to make a Zelda title, if we had interest in doing that, I think really what would be most important to us is to be able to play with the format of a movie, make it more interactive, like you’re able to take your 3DS into the theater and that leads you into participating in it somehow. We wouldn’t want to make it the same as any other movie. We want to somehow change what a movie is.”
