The Legend of Zelda movie director Wes Ball has said he's aiming for something a little more "grounded" with his adaptation than he first envisioned a decade ago.

Now, admittedly, right off the bat when I saw Wes Ball, the guy behind the soon-to-be-released Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes, say that he wants his Zelda move to be more "grounded" and "real" alarm bells went off in my head. You're telling me you want the series where its protagonist, Link, has been a furry, a painting, and a Deku scrub, to be grounded? But this is why it's important to read on a touch, as that's not exactly what he's getting at. Ball recently spoke in a brief interview with

, where he was asked about his more than a decade old

, in which he said "Since I could never even hope to have the chance to direct it... the next big mo-cap Avatar-like movie should be... THE LEGEND OF ZELDA."

Bear in mind, this was literally a month after the original Avatar released, so it's no surprise it was on his mind. These days, though, Ball is singing a different tune, saying that a completely motion-capture Zelda film "probably isn't his choice." He then went on to say he wanted the film to be more "grounded" and "real" so it more sounds like he doesn't want a bunch of CGI elf-like people wandering around green-screen sets. I'm hoping that means he's leaning more towards practical effects, a bit of a dying artform in a post-MCU world.
