A lot of people have been talking about the announcements online, with a lot of speculation about who could be playing who.

On a post in the Elden Ring Subreddit, one said: "Give me a Jonathan Pryce as Gideon Ofnir any day of the week."

"Nick Offerman as Hewg?" a second pondered.

A third commented: "Okay hear me out. Ian McShane as the voice of Margit / Morgott. I can totally hear him saying 'foul tarnished'."

A fourth mused: "My first guess is almost everyone is playing new characters we haven't seen or heard about before. I still very much expect Garland to make a new story set in the same world and not a straight adaptation of the game or its lore. That's not his style, plus I think it would be way too hard to fit into a single movie."

"Stacked cast," a fifth declared.

A lot of people have been commenting about Elden Ring movie's release date too.

One said: "I'm seated. The theatre employees are scared and asking me to leave because it 'hasn't even finished filming yet' but I'm simply too seated."

A second commented: "Honestly glad to hear the release date is so far out and it's not being rushed."

"Peak," a third declared.

A fourth questioned: "Who wants to bet it comes out before Tarnished Edition?"

And a fifth said: "Announcing it over a year in advance just like real game devs, they know it's going to be peak."
