- The Elden Ring movie will be released on March 3, 2028, as per the official announcement.
- The movie will be directed by Alex Garland, who is known for his work on Ex Machina and Annihilation.
- Alex Garland is said to be a massive Elden Ring fan, which has given hope to the game's core players for a faithful adaptation.
Elden Ring is undoubtedly one of the biggest games of all time. Elden Ring is FromSoftware’s finest work. The game continues to have a strong player base even years after its release. All of this has propelled Bandai Namco and FromSoftware to make an Elden Ring film, and fans cannot wait to see it. If you are also excited for the Elden Ring movie, here is everything there is to know about it.
Elden Ring Movie Release Date
The Elden Ring movie will be released on March 3, 2028. The production for the movie will start in Spring 2026, with the full cast finally revealed. It has already been two years since the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC was released, so fans cannot wait for the Elden Ring adaptation to come sooner.
Our previous guess for the film’s release was also 2028, so when the official Elden Ring movie release date announcement on X was revealed, it didn’t come as a shock to us. Epic movies like The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring took around 2 years in production alone. So, Elden Ring taking a similar amount of time is expected.
Is There a Trailer for the Elden Ring Movie?
No, there are no trailers for the Elden Ring movie yet. It is still in early production, so having a trailer or teaser anytime soon is very unrealistic. We can expect the movie’s teaser after the filming is complete, and if our 2028 release date guess is correct, we may have a teaser as early as 2027.
Elden Ring Movie Cast
The full cast list for the Elden Ring movie has finally been revealed, and it features some well-known stars. Here is the cast we currently know about:
- Kit Connor
- Ben Whishaw
- Cailee Spaeny
- Tom Burke
- Havana Rose Liu
- Sonoya Mizuno
- Jonathan Pryce
- Ruby Cruz
- Nick Offerman
- John Hodgkinson
- Jefferson Hall
- Emma Laird
- Peter Serafinowicz
We still don’t know which characters these stars will be playing in the movie. Hopefully, the story revolves around Marika’s ascend to power and her downfall, which means we will see all the demi gods in the liveaction.

What Will be the Elden Ring Movie Storyline?
Elden Ring has one of the most expansive stories in gaming, having multiple layers of lore. It is considered one of the best works of both George R.R. Martin and FromSoftware, so the core fanbase is expecting a lot from the Elden Ring movie. Sadly, we also have no information about the movie’s storyline yet. But if the story is faithful to Elden Ring, we will likely get the tale of Marika and her ascension to power. That sounds like an ideal way to tell a story of the Lands Between.
Doing so will also mean that characters like Godwyn would also get a lot more screentime compared to the game. The fan favourite characters, Radahn and Morgot (or Margit), will also take centre stage, among other demigods. We should also get to see the love story between Radagon and Rennala, alongside Marika’s relationship with Godfrey.
