Talking to the men’s lifestyle website LionActor Norman Reedus seems to be implying there won’t be just one sequel 2019 death stranding, but this production has “just begun”. This information comes in the middle of a wide-ranging interview in which the actor opens up about his time the Walking Deadhis friendships with other actors and celebrities, and of course his time working with video game auteur Hideo Kojima.
It can hardly be more direct. After discussing his forthcoming book, “The Devastated‘, as well as the coming end the Walking Deadmentions interviewer Ilaria Urbinati death stranding to which the actor replies very directly:
Okay, so you’ve got the book going, the final season coming out, then the spinoff, and you’re filming death strandingthe videogame.
We’ve just started the second.
Well, before we all start spinning our own speculations on how to continue the story of death strandingit’s worth noting that “second” could perhaps refer to another game he’s working on with Kojima, or something else entirely.
After this potentially huge piece of information, said in six simple words, Reedus tells the story of how Guillermo Del Toro introduced him to “a guy named Hideo Kojima” and how their collaboration survived the tragedy silent hills project and went on to talk a little about how his “digital DNA” was captured for the game, a process he described as “so intricate and beautiful.”
As many may already know, just a whisper of anything Kojima-related races wild conspiracy theories and speculation. Just look at them marketing for Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Painas well as at other times he toyed with expectations, could explain why fans tend to be so overly speculative about the legendary game developer’s work. So it’s rather…unexpected to get a seemingly simple answer to an upcoming Kojima game. Apart from tweets about what music he listens to on his Walkman (because Kojima would of course have a Walkman in 2022), Kojima recently posted an interesting picture of him arranging some Ultraman toys with one word: “EXPERIMENT”.
