Filming has begun on the A24-backed, Alex Garland-directed Elden Ring movie, and leaked on-set footage has shown a live-action version of the Loathsome Dung Eater scene from the game’s opening cutscene. [1]

Bandai Namco confirmed last year that a live-action film adaptation of Elden Ring was in development, and the production is now underway. [1]

The film has set aside "well over" $100 million, a budget Eurogamer said makes it A24's largest and most ambitious project yet. [1]

Leaked footage appears to show vegetables, including lettuce, being thrown at the Dung Eater, a detail that matches the game’s grotesque tone. [1]

Filming is expected to last around 100 days, giving the production a long schedule as it moves through the next stage of shooting. [1]
