That casting is just a rumor for Zelda anyway, nothing is official yet.

Haven't film studios learned that casting far-left activists like Schafer's 'Hunger Games' co-star Rachel Zegler makes you lose money at the box office? Zegler and Schafer share the same views.

The film's release has been postponed until May 7, 2027 due to production reasons.

"Production reasons" really doesn't mean anything. It's not even really IN production, yet.

Producers are apparently looking for actors age 16-23 to play Link and Zelda. So, Schaefer is likely out of the running.

I really hope they choose someone very young looking, so he can resemble young link best even if only in the first movie. If they do make a trilogy, he'd likely look much older by the third, which is fine.
I'd sacrifice having Zelda with a master sword between her legs if it meant that Link gets to wear his green tunic. I hate his hatless blue BOTW look.

This is cool, but unless they go as deep and embracing as Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings with the world, I can't help but feel that this would make for a better animated movie than anything.

Waits for the outrage against "misogyny" for that one. But it's selectively flung here, so maybe you won't experience it?

Bo Bragason will play Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth will play Link.

I like Benjamin Evan Ainsworth in the films I've seen him in. I'm not familiar with Bo Bragason, but she does look the part. I hope people don't complain about Link not having blond hair.

You realize they can fix that, right? And in multi-million dollar movies they tend to spring for the $20 hair dye if need be.

Many people didn't like how Astrid in the live-action How to Train Your Dragon had brown hair instead of blonde. However, Universal kept it the way it was. They've already released photos of Zelda and Link in costume, so maybe they will leave his hair the way it is.

Link is brunette or blonde depending on the game. It's fine.
What I'm worried about Links outfit not having a hat and him not wearing green which are very much possible choices.Breath of the Wild ruined his iconic look and since it was such a popular game they could use that look forever now.
I'd also like Zelda to have Elvish ears.

That's them in costume? No, it's not. They didn't even give them the ears or anything.

Link's hair will absolutely be either light brown or blondeish. And yeah they don't even have elf ears in those pics so those are not shots in costume.

Most likely Zelda will travel with Link in the movie and not be captured for 90% of the movie like the games. Interesting enough the Zelda actress is a few years older than Link. I hope they show them both use all the items from the games together.
