Hunter Schafer Rumored to Star as Princess Zelda in Live-Action Nintendo Movie

Mass Evacuations In Manitoba As Wildfires Rage And Smoke Spreads

Hunter Schafer, the stunning star of Euphoria and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, is the hot new name being whispered for one of gaming’s most iconic roles — Princess Zelda herself.

That’s right. According to a bombshell report from Cosmic Book News, Schafer is being rumored for the lead female role in Nintendo’s highly anticipated live-action Legend of Zelda movie. And fans? They’re losing their minds.

Social media has exploded with reactions. Tweets, memes, and heated debates are flooding timelines as gamers, film buffs, and diehard Zelda fans ask the same question: Could Hunter really pull it off?

Let’s be real — she’s got the ethereal looks, the otherworldly aura, and the acting chops to bring the magical, mysterious Zelda to life. And if you’ve seen her haunting performance in Euphoria, you know she’s not just a pretty face. She commands attention.

Schafer hasn’t been officially cast. Not yet. But the insider buzz from Daniel Richtman — a name that’s made the rounds in Hollywood leaks for years — is enough to send the rumor mill into overdrive.

And honestly? It makes sense. The upcoming Zelda movie, directed by Maze Runner’s Wes Ball and backed by Nintendo and Sony, is already one of the most hyped adaptations in recent memory. With a release date set for March 2027, the stakes are sky-high. So why not swing for the stars?

This could be a defining moment — not just for Schafer, but for Zelda fans who’ve waited decades to see their favorite characters brought to life on the big screen with the respect (and budget) they deserve.

Whether she dons the royal dress or not, one thing is clear: Schafer’s name is on everyone’s lips — and Princess Zelda has never looked so real.
