Dragami Games has revealed a live-action Lollipop Chainsaw movie at Tokyo Game Show 2026, marking the franchise's first feature film. The R-rated action comedy will serve as a prequel to the original Grasshopper Manufacture game, following Juliet Starling through a catastrophic zombie outbreak at her school. An international production team including former ZDF Studios drama boss Robert Franke is attached to the project.
Nintendo has moved up the release date of its highly anticipated live-action The Legend of Zelda movie to April 30, 2027, a week earlier than initially planned. This adjustment comes as the film, directed by Wes Ball and starring Benjamin Evan Ainsworth as Link and Bo Bragason as Zelda, nears its completion after wrapping filming in New Zealand. The shift positions the movie strategically amidst a crowded 2027 release schedule.
