Elden Ring Fans Joke About The Movie Is Reusing Props, Just Like FromSoftware

Photos from the set of A24’s Elden Ring movie are being released, and they’re giving fans a first look at characters like Marika and Loathsome Dung Eater. We’ve also seen glimpses of Leyndell’s streets, complete with extras playing citizens and guards. As you’d expect, fans are carefully studying every image, trying to piece together clues about the film’s plot and details.

Beyond the story itself, some fans have noticed that props from other movies and shows were reused in this one. While it’s normal for productions to repurpose older items, it’s amusing to fans because FromSoftware, the game developer, is known for reusing animations and even characters in their games.

Where Have I Seen That Before?

Fans have noticed something interesting in leaked images from the upcoming game: a character resembling a Leyndell Knight. A closer look suggests the base of the Knight’s helmet is actually a repurposed prop from the first episode of House of the Dragon. It appears the production team reused the helmet and simply added different decorations to create a new look.

Fans of FromSoftware games noticed a funny parallel with the upcoming Elden Ring movie: it appears to be reusing an animation asset the developers themselves have recycled for years. One fan joked they’d walk out if the movie didn’t include a character dramatically opening a large door using FromSoftware’s signature animation. Another pointed out that the developers have been using the same skeleton animation since the original Demon’s Souls and have continued to reuse it in all their subsequent games.

Fans of FromSoftware games always enjoy searching for recognizable animations and character designs in each new release, and we can expect the same with The Duskbloods when it comes out. It’s reassuring to know the movie will likely stay true to the style and feel of the original games, as one fan noted, emphasizing the production team’s commitment to mirroring FromSoftware’s approach.
