Elden Ring Film Eyes Kit Connor for Lead Role

Elden Ring Film director Alex Garland is reportedly considering reuniting with Warfare actor Kit Connor for A24 and Bandai Namco's adaptation of the acclaimed 2022 RPG.

According to Deadline, Garland is exploring the possibility of casting Connor for a role in the Elden Ring movie. Variety confirmed the discussions but noted that no official offer has been extended yet.

Connor recently collaborated with Garland on last month's intense war drama Warfare, which follows a team of U.S. Navy SEALs ambushed during a mission in Iraq.

The young actor's notable credits include Heartstopper, His Dark Materials, and Rocketman, along with voice roles in games like A Plague Tale: Requiem and Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Details about Connor's potential role remain speculative, as the filmmakers haven't revealed how they'll adapt Hidetaka Miyazaki and George R.R. Martin's intricate fantasy world.

Garland's involvement in directing and writing the screenplay was confirmed last week, marking his latest project after films like Ex Machina and Civil War.

Martin joins as producer alongside DNA's Peter Rice, Andrew Macdonald, and Allon Reich to expand upon the Lands Between mythology.

While fans speculate about Connor's potential role casting decisions likely won't be finalized soon—nor will a release date for the highly anticipated adaptation.
