The live-action film will be produced by George R.R. Martin, who was also involved in the making of the game, along with Peter Rice, Andrew Macdonald, Allon Reich, and Vince Gerardis. Images from the movie’s set surfaced online earlier this month, ostensibly depicting the Church of Marika.
FromSoftware’s Elden Ring franchise currently consists of two instalments: 2022’s Elden Ring and 2025’s co-op spin-off Elden Ring Nightreign. No further sequels or spin-offs in the franchise have been announced yet.
