Alex Garland, the director behind the Elden Ring movie adaptation, is reportedly interested in casting Kit Connor, known for his role in the film Warfare, for a part in the upcoming project. This potential reunion would mark another collaboration between Garland and Connor, following their recent work together.
Kit Connor recently starred in Warfare, a gripping war drama focusing on U.S. Navy SEALs under hostile fire in Iraq, directed by Garland. Beyond this, Connor has built a diverse portfolio with roles in television series such as Heartstopper and His Dark Materials, as well as the biographical film Rocketman. He has also lent his voice to characters in popular video games like A Plague Tale: Requiem, Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and Dreams.
Uncertainty Surrounding Connor’s Role in Elden Ring
Details about the Elden Ring film’s storyline remain under wraps, leaving Connor’s potential character and role within the dark fantasy world created by Hidetaka Miyazaki and George R. R. Martin a mystery. No official casting offers have been confirmed at this stage.
Garland, known for his work on Ex Machina and Civil War, will not only direct but also write the screenplay for the Elden Ring adaptation. George R. R. Martin returns as a producer, collaborating alongside Peter Rice, Andrew Macdonald, and Allon Reich from DNA.
Fans will need to be patient as more information about the cast and plot of the Elden Ring movie is expected to surface in the future. A release date has yet to be announced, promising a longer wait before the film reaches audiences.
