“I am pleased to announce that for the live-action film of ‘The Legend of Zelda,’ Zelda will be played by Bo Bragason-san, and Link by Benjamin Evan Ainsworth-san,” the post, presumably signed by Shigeru Miyamoto, reads. “I am very much looking forward to seeing both of them on the big screen.”

Ainsworth is known for his roles in the 2022 live-action remake of Pinocchio, starring Tom Hanks, as well as The Haunting of Bly Manor, Everything’s Going to Be Great, and All Fun and Games opposite Sex Education’s Asa Butterfield.
