The highly-anticipated Elden Ring movie at A24 and video game company Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.is gaining momentum as director Alex Garland may be zeroing on a familiar face to lead the epic adaptation. While it is unknown where things stand in negotiations or if a formal offer has been offered, sources tell Deadline the director has talks with Kit Connor, who recently appeared in his war pic Warfare, to star in the adaptation. Sources stress several factors still need to be worked out including scheduling but both Garland and Connor want this to happen.

A24 had no comment.

As reported last week, Garland is writing an directing the pic with Peter Rice is set to produce alongside Andrew Macdonald and Allon Reich from DNA, as well as George R. R. Martin and Vince Gerardis.

Released to critical acclaim in February 2022, Elden Ring is an action RPG set in an authentic dark fantasy world, which allows players to head off on adventures within vast environments and dungeons. Created under the guidance of FromSoftware’s Hidetaka Miyazaki, the game is based on a story written by Martin, author of the fantasy novel series, A Song of Ice and Fire, which served as the basis for HBO’s Game of Thrones.

Over 30 million units have shipped worldwide over the last few years. An Elden Ring spin-off, Elden Ring Nightreign, is slated for release worldwide on Friday, May 30.

Over the years, Garland is one of the stronger partnerships the studio has with any director with four of his five films bowing at the studio. The project is expected to be one of A24’s largest productions to date but given Garland’s track record with the studio having most recently directed the war pic Warfare, the studio is very high on this upcoming venture.

If a deal does close, this would mark a major victory for Connor as this project is expected to draw plenty of talent given everyone involved in it. Connor’s star has been on the rise since his breakout role in the Netflix series Heartstopper. He was most recently seen in Garland’s Warfare, which featured other rising stars such as Charles Melton, Jospeh Quinn and Will Poulter and can be seen next in the Netflix pic A Cuban Girl’s Guide To Tea and Tomorrow. He is repped by Independent Talent Group and WME.
