Bandai Namco and A24 have officially announced a collaboration with acclaimed writer and director Alex Garland to produce a live-action film adaptation of the globally renowned video game Elden Ring. Developed by FromSoftware, Elden Ring has become a cultural phenomenon, continuing the studio's legacy of critically acclaimed "Souls-like" titles such as Dark Souls, Demon's Souls, and Bloodborne.

Fans are also eagerly anticipating the release of the next co-op installment in the series, Elden Ring: Nightreign, scheduled to launch on May 30, 2025.
Garland, best known for directing Ex Machina and 28 Days Later, has earned widespread praise for his work as a writer, director, and producer. His involvement in the Elden Ring adaptation puts an end to longstanding rumors about the franchise branching out beyond the realm of gaming.
