A24's Elden Ring movie has entered production, and fans have already determined the perfect popcorn bucket

A24's Elden Ring movie is now filming... and fans have already figured out the perfect themed popcorn bucket for the movie's release.

Every movie is getting its own popcorn buckets these days (though some are more, uh, suggestive than others). Should the Elden Ring movie get its own popcorn bucket at the time of release, fans of the video game have decided it should be none other than Iron Fist Alexander... who is basically a big ol' jar.

In the game, Iron Fist Alexander is a living jar who left home one day with the aspiration to become a great warrior. The player can complete several Alexander side quests, and even fight him (and you get his innards after he dies).

The Elden Ring movie is helmed by director Alex Garland, who also penned the script. And if you're still wondering if the Ex Machina, Civil War, and Annihilation director is the one for the job... he quite literally created a 160-page script to present to FromSoftware and the creators of Elden Ring. He also schooled an interviewer on one of the game's toughest bosses.

George R. R. Martin, author and creator of Game of Thrones, also serves as producer (and helped develop the world of Elden Ring). The confirmed cast so far includes Kit Connor, Cailee Spaeny, and Ben Wishaw.

The Elden Ring movie does not yet have a release date. For more, check out the upcoming video game movies and new PS5 games coming your way in 2026 and beyond.
