FromSoftware’s Elden Ring<\/a> might be hitting the big screen after all, as a notable insider claims director Alex Garland is in negotiations.<\/p>\n

Film and TV adaptations of video games<\/a> have become big business over the past decade, as seen with the likes of The Last Of Us<\/a> and A Minecraft<\/a> Movie, but Hollywood has yet to tap into one of the most acclaimed developers in the world.<\/p>\n

FromSoftware has achieved critical and commercial success in the gaming sphere, with Dark Souls, Bloodborne<\/a>, and its recent sales juggernaut Elden Ring<\/a>, but beyond a few comic book series the studio has never tried adapting its work to other mediums.<\/p>\n

That might be about to change though, with a notable Hollywood insider claiming talks are underway for a film adaptation of Elden Ring.<\/p>\n

The origins of this rumour are murky. Earlier this week, a report on Nexus Point News<\/a> claimed Alex Garland was set to direct an Elden Ring film for A24, with shooting expected to start in 2026.<\/p>\n

However, the report was suddenly taken down, with no explanation as to why. GameCentral reached out to A24 who declined to comment.<\/p>\n

While this led many to dismiss the rumour, insider Jeff Sneider, who has a good track record for Hollywood scoops, has since corroborated the information. ‘Alex Garland IS in negotiations to direct Elden Ring for A24,’ he wrote on X.<\/p>\n

The opaque storytelling of Elden Ring might make it seem unfilmable, but it’s something the game’s director, Hidetaka Miyazaki, has previously expressed interest in.<\/p>\n

‘I don’t see any reason to deny another interpretation or adaptation of Elden Ring, a movie for example,’ Miyazaki told The Guardian<\/a> last year. ‘But I don\u2019t think myself, or FromSoftware, have the knowledge or ability to produce something in a different medium. <\/p>\n

‘So that\u2019s where a very strong partner would come into play. We\u2019d have to build a lot of trust and agreement on whatever it is we\u2019re trying to achieve, but there\u2019s interest, for sure.’<\/p>\n

George R.R. Martin, who collaborated with Miyazaki on Elden Ring’s lore, also strongly hinted<\/a> at a potential film or TV adaptation in July last year.<\/p>\n
