A Zelda movie is finally happening, but Nintendo's Shigeru Miyamoto used to adamantly oppose the idea even "if Steven Spielberg himself" wanted to do it (www.gamesradar.com)

I love Zelda but a movie would be too weird. I like the "voiceless" Link. It puts the players thoughts as the response instead of a script.

Would be cool if they made the movie where Link doesn't talk at all. I can't think of any movies with a dumb protagonist, it wouid be a first. They'd also need to find an actor who is really good with acting with their face and body language.

Probably won't happen, though. We're going to get Link who talks and a reference to "Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuUUUUUUUUUUUUUssse me, princess!"

what if it's like botw/totk where everyone is fully voice acted, except for link who just waves his hands around every time has to explains something and everyone just repeats what he says.

that one gif of a guy talking to a wall

I mean, that's been the standard since at least ocarina of time. I remember rolling my eyes at the other characters reading your responses back to you.
