The upcoming Elden Ring film adaptation from Alex Garland and production company A24 reportedly has a budget of “well over” $100m.
That’s according to sources who also told The Hollywood Reporter there will be “around” 100 days of principal photography.
The publication added Elden Ring is “A24’s largest and most ambitious project” (thanks for spotting, IGN). This all means that Elden Ring is a more expensive production than A24’s Civil War and theTimothée Chalamet-fronted Marty Supreme.
Yesterday, the cast for the Elden Ring film was announced, with Alien: Romulus and Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery actress Cailee Spaeny in a lead role. Other confirmed cast members include Ben Whishaw, Kit Connor, Peter Serafinowicz and Nick Offerman, to name a few.
We still don’t know who is playing who (or what), though I can see Spaeny as Melina. As for Offerman, surely he will be Iron Fist Alexander, the Warrior Jar. I wonder who will land the role of Miriel, Pastor of Vows?
The Elden Ring adaptation is set to arrive in theatres on 3rd March, 2028.
Elden Ring (the game) was initially released back in 2022, and soon became a phenomenal success for developer FromSoftware. A DLC known as Shadow of the Erdtree followed, as did multiplayer spin-off, Nightreign.
As for other video game to film adaptations, earlier this month we got a look at the upcoming Street Fighter film, which stars Noah Centineo as Ken and Andrew Koji as Ryu.
