The Zelda Movie Is Pulling From Many Games, Which Is The Right Move

Now-deleted behind-the-scenes photos for The Legend of Zelda movie hint that the live-action adaptation will take influences from multiple Zelda games rather than directly adapting a singular entry, which might be the best-case scenario for the project.

Looking back to the first https://www.gamespot.com/articles/zelda-movie-gets-first-official-set-photos-following-leak/1100-6536273/">official set photos from the Zelda movie, the blue tunic donned by Zelda (played by Bo Bragason) greatly resembles the character's outfit in Breath of the Wild.

But a photo initially shared on Instagram by the film's director of photography, Gyula Pados, shows a clapperboard with artwork of Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link in his traditional green tunic, hat and all.

The image of Ainsworth looks like the adult Link we've known since Ocarina of Time, though fans believe that the costume looks more inspired by Twilight Princess than anything.

The tunic has a muted green, similar to the darker and more mature aesthetic of Twilight Princess.

Additionally, Link is wearing chainmail underneath, which he sported in Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword.
