It’s common knowledge that Hideo Kojima is working on a live-action Death Stranding film, and we eagerly await Death Stranding 2: On the Beach. However, did you know that the Death Stranding franchise is also venturing into another medium? That’s right, an anime!
This detail emerged during a conversation, as esteemed video game designer Hideo Kojima shared his thoughts on the live-action movie version of the game.
Kojima Confirms Death Stranding Anime In The Works

During an interview with Vogue Japan, Kojima discussed transforming video games into different forms, citing The Last of Us as a case where the narrative remains faithful to the original game. He additionally mentioned fan-oriented projects such as the upcoming Super Mario Bros. movie.
According to Kojima, as reported by VGC, he is collaborating with A24 on turning Death Stranding into a live-action movie. When it comes to transforming video games into visual media, there are examples like The Last of Us that remain faithful to the original storyline, and movies such as “The Super Mario Bros” which cater more to the fans of the game.
Kojima expressed his desire to bring Death Stranding to life on the big screen, stating, “As a cinema lover, I’m eager to explore the unique capabilities of film. My goal is to craft a Death Stranding that can only be achieved through cinematic means, a project that could potentially earn accolades at prestigious film festivals such as Cannes or Venice. Interestingly, we are simultaneously developing an animated adaptation of Death Stranding.
Information about the upcoming Death Stranding live-action film is being tightly guarded, yet its main character, Norman Reedus, has openly stated his desire to play a part in the movie. If given the opportunity, he’s ready and willing to take on the role.
Regarding the gaming world, Death Stranding 2 is set to debut on June 26 exclusively on PS5. This could potentially be the final installment of the Death Stranding series from Hideo Kojima, as he’s been brainstorming ideas for a sequel. However, with numerous other projects in the pipeline such as a horror game titled OD for Xbox, an espionage game Physint for PlayStation, a live-action film adaptation of Death Stranding, and an upcoming anime, it seems likely that any future work on a Death Stranding sequel will be handled by another team at Kojima Productions.
