“I just throw myself at them ... like monkeys and typewriters.” I love that the Elden Ring movie director is one us, he's actually on his 7th playthrough

Elden Ring Radahn.

As we learned last month, the live-action Elden Ring movie is real and is being produced by the filmmaking company A24, with Alex Garland (Ex Machina, Annihilation, Warfare) serving as its director. And now, it's come out that he's not only played FromSoftware's critically acclaimed Game of the Year-winning action RPG, but is a passionate fan of the title.

Speaking with IGN about Elden Ring briefly during an interview about the imminent 28 Years Later film he helped write and produce, Garland revealed he's in the middle of his seventh playthrough of the game. He also says that the Starscourge Radahn boss is an easy fight, and that Malenia, Blade of Miquella is "the tough one." Nobody tell him about the last boss in Shadow of the Erdtree.
