According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, Netflix is working on a live-action Legend of Zelda television show.

The WSJ cites "a person familiar with the matter," saying Netflix described the show as "Game of Thrones for a family audience." Zelda game are often light-hearted even at their darkest, so the tone of the potential show doesn't sound too far out of line from the Zelda we already know.

Borrowing heavily from the premise of The Legend of Zelda games, the report says Netflix series is based on a boy named Link who must rescue Princess Zelda and save the land of Hyrule.

The series also reportedly doesn't have a writer yet, so it could have a "long road to travel" before the project is a reality.

This guy. I was just about to post this. 

Netflix is describing it as “Game of Thrones” for a family audience, this person said. 

That made me laugh a bit. Hopefully turns out decent.

Well Nintendo did say they were going to be more active in branching out their IP like this.

I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

...... Like Game of Thrones? Well, I certainly never thought Nintendo would pull off something like that! Now, let's hope that it won't be total garbage and everything will be alright!

It better be good, or else.

Most of Netflix's original series are garbage, so this will have to be a trend breaker.



Woah, it's April 1st already?
