Right here, Kojima confirms that he won’t be directing the film, however followers anxious that Kojima Productions’ involvement wouldn’t contain enter from the person at its helm can relaxation straightforward. Along with his position as producer, Kojima can be “deeply concerned” with many different components of the movie, together with its plot and general aesthetics. Whereas the film takes place within the current Dying Stranding world, it is going to “introduce new components and characters throughout the Dying Stranding universe,” in keeping with Deadline. Whether or not that consists of a retelling of an current plot or a wholly new one is unclear, however it is going to actually have that distinct Kojima contact.
Along with the film-focused department of Kojima Productions, the movie can be produced by Hammerstone Studios. Based in 2018, the studio’s best-known movies embrace Barbarian (2022) and Invoice and Ted Face the Music (2020). The studio’s founder, Alex Lebovici, had the next to say to Deadline in regards to the upcoming undertaking:
We’re thrilled and honored to have the chance to companion with sensible and iconic Hideo Kojima on his first movie adaptation. In contrast to different massive finances tentpole online game diversifications, this can be one thing way more intimate and grounded. Our aim is to redefine what a online game adaptation may very well be when you might have artistic and creative freedom. This movie can be an genuine “Hideo Kojima” manufacturing.
Given the truth that the manufacturing groups have but to announce any director, author or actor that’s hooked up to the undertaking (I’m hoping it includes Nicolas Cage), it’s nonetheless a number of years out. In the event you’re dying for extra Kojima earlier than then, you’ll be able to re-watch the Dying Stranding 2 reveal trailer or fantasize in regards to the recreation Kojima wants to make in space.
