Alex Garland to Direct Elden Ring Live-Action Movie with A24 and George R. R. Martin

In this episode, we break down the massive news of the Elden Ring live-action movie currently in development. A24 is teaming up with the legendary George R. R. Martin and acclaimed director Alex Garland (Ex Machina, Annihilation, Civil War) to bring FromSoftware’s dark fantasy world to life. We dive into Garland’s filmography, what makes him a compelling choice for the project, and share personal experiences (and struggles) with the game. Plus, we toss around dream casting ideas and speculate on whether this could finally be the accessible storytelling version of Elden Ring we’ve been waiting for.
