Even in its game format, Death Stranding arrived in 2019 having done a movie’s worth of story writing to activate its Hollywood-heavy voice cast. RELATED: Death Stranding reviews are in: Kojima takes Reedus & del Toro on a long, strange tripĪlready accustomed to tons of film-worthy cutscenes, Kojima gaming fans have long speculated that the iconic auteur of the ambitiously cinematic Metal Gear video game franchise has harbored dreams of making actual movies. Kojima Productions US and Canadian writer/director Allan Ungar ( Gridlocked, Bandit) will reportedly serve as executive producers. Lebovici and Kojima will reportedly produce the movie, with Hammerstone handling the film’s production cost. Via Deadline, the interactive entertainment auteur is bringing Death Stranding to the movies via his Kojima Productions banner, alongside Alex Lebovici’s Hammerstone Studios - the same production house behind this year’s horror hit Barbarian and 2020’s Bill & Ted Face the Music. Strap on your survival gear and get ready for a long, perilous walk, because Death Stranding - the post-apocalyptic PlayStation game that took star Norman Reedus on an extended sci-fi stalk across a fractured American landscape - is reportedly stalking toward a date with the big screen, complete with the full involvement of legendary game creator Hideo Kojima himself. Movie isn’t the only big-name video game adaptation getting set to make the giant genre leap into theaters.
