Just last month, fans of The Legend of Zelda were sent into quite a stir when a rumour was reported, which you can check out here, that the franchise was finally getting a live-action adaptation in the form of a Netflix exclusive series. Back and forth rumours of a Zelda film have gone up and down for decades, but the series has never quite made the jump to live-action. However, given Netflix's recent successes, such as House of Cards and the upcoming Marvel shows Daredevil and A.K.A. Jessica Jones, many fans were excited to see what the platform could do for one of Nintendo's most beloved franchises.
Unfortunately, in a recent interview with TIME , Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata seemingly debunked the report when asked about it: "As of now, I have nothing new to share with you in regard to the use of our IPs for any TV shows or films, but I can at least confirm that the article in question is not based on correct information." While this does not mean that the show might not come to fruition in the future, it appears that Link and Princess Zelda won't be making the jump to live-action anytime soon. Were you interested in a possible Legend of Zelda Netflix series?
