FromSoftware and A24 to produce Elden Ring adaptation Ex Machina writer and director Alex Garland to helm the film, George R. R. Martin on board as producer Image credit: FromSoftware News by Sophie McEvoy Staff Writer Published on May 23, 2025 FromSoftware has partnered with A24 to produce a film adaptation of Elden Ring. Ex Machina and Annihilation director Alex Garland has been signed on to direct. He's also known for writing 28 Days Later and Sunshine, in addition to the upcoming 28 Years Later and its sequel The Bone Temple. Author George R. R. Martin, who provided worldbuilding for Elden Ring, is on board to produce. Peter Rice and Vince Gerardis are also producing, alongside Andrew Macdonald and Allon Reich from DNA Films. Last year, Martin teased a potential adaptation or TV series of the game. "Oh, and about those rumours you may have heard about a feature film or a television series based on Elden Ring… I have nothing to say," he wrote in a blog post. "Not a word, nope, not a thing, I know nothing, you never heard a peep from me, mum mum mum. What rumour?" FromSoftware's president Hidetaka Miyazaki also spoke about the potential adaptation during an interview with The Guardian. "I don't see any reason to deny another interpretation or adaptation of Elden Ring, a movie for example," said Miyazaki. "But I don't think myself, or FromSoftware, have the knowledge or ability to produce something in a different medium. So that's where a very strong partner would come into play. "We'd have to build a lot of trust and agreement on whatever it is we're trying to achieve, but there's interest, for sure." Elden Ring isn't the only game adaptation in the works at A24, as it's also co-producing a Death Stranding movie with Kojima Productions. A Quiet Place: Day One's Michael Sarnoski is reportedly signed on to direct.
