Elden Ring Film director Alex Garland is reportedly considering reuniting with his Warfare star Kit Connor for A24 and Bandai Namco's adaptation of the hit 2022 RPG.
The potential collaboration was first reported by Deadline, noting Garland's interest in casting Connor for a role in the Elden Ring project. Variety confirmed the news while clarifying that no official offer has been extended yet.
Connor recently collaborated with Garland on the intense war thriller Warfare, depicting U.S. Navy SEALs under fire in Iraq. The young actor's diverse credits include Netflix's Heartstopper, HBO's His Dark Materials, and the Elton John biopic Rocketman, along with voice roles in A Plague Tale: Requiem and Xenoblade Chronicles 3.
Details remain scarce about how Connor might fit into the dark fantasy world created by Hidetaka Miyazaki and George R.R. Martin. Plot specifics for the film adaptation haven't been revealed.
Following last week's announcement of Garland's involvement, the acclaimed Ex Machina director will both helm the project and write the screenplay. Martin joins as producer alongside DNA partners Peter Rice, Andrew Macdonald, and Allon Reich.
Fans will need to remain patient - no casting confirmations or release dates have been set for the Elden Ring film adaptation. In the meantime, you can explore how FromSoftware's devoted fanbase reacted to the movie announcement.
