The author, who worked withFromSoftwareon the writing of Elden Ring, refers to rumours of a TV or film adaptation in hislatest blog post, and appears to suggest that he knows more than he’s letting on.

George R. R. Martin Has Fun With Elden Ring Adaptation Rumours
“Oh, and about those rumors you may have heard about a feature film or television series based on ELDEN RING… I have nothing to say,” writes Martin. “Not a word, nope, not a thing, I know nothing, you never heard a peep from me, mum mum mum. What rumor?”
Whatever the case, he’s clearly having a lot of fun with this. Whether he’s acting suspiciously to misdirect us or just for a laugh at our expense remains to be seen.
As for these rumours, it’s not exactly clear what Martin is referring to here. It’s possible that he is referencing Elden Ring director Hidetaka Miyazaki’scommentsabout being open to a film adaptation. If that’s the case, it’s possible that Martin is aware that this has gone beyond hypothetical, but that’s just speculation at this stage.
