Zelda Movie Link Actor Comments on Breath of the Wild

Benjamin Evan Ainsworth said he didn’t play Breath of the Wild at launch because he was too young and didn’t own a Switch.

He watched playthroughs online back then, then revisited The Legend of Zelda after being cast as Link.

Ainsworth said filming in New Zealand was great, but he kept quiet about the movie itself.

His comments offer the first small clue about the live-action Zelda film’s connection to Breath of the Wild.
