Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding to Get Live-Action Movie by A24 Films 

Hideo Kojima has officially announced that Death Stranding live-action movie adaptation is in the works with A24 now being involved in the project.

A24 is a film and television company best known for its work on Academy Award-winning films such as Everything Everywhere All At Once, The Whale, and Ex Machina, just to name a few.

According to the announcement, Death Stranding live-action movie will “delve into the mysteries surrounding the apocalyptic event called ‘Death Stranding’, which blurred the lines between life and death, and brought forth nightmarish creatures into a world on the brink of collapse.”

The announcement was made ahead of the 8th anniversary of Kojima Productions on December 16th, and Hideo Kojima commented on the collaboration with A24, saying “A24 was born into this world about 10 years ago, their presence is singular within the industry, they are like no other.”

“The films they are delivering to the world are high in quality and very innovative. I have been attracted to their creations and they have even inspired my own work.”

“Their innovative approach to storytelling aligns with what Kojima Productions has been doing for the last 8 years. Now, we are making a Death Stranding movie together.”

“There are a lot of ‘game adaptation films’ out there but what we are creating is not just a direct translation of the game.”

“The intention is that our audience will not only be fans of the games, but our film will be for anyone who loves cinema.”

“We are creating a Death Stranding universe that has never been seen before, achievable only through the medium of film, it will be born.”

It was also revealed that the Death Stranding live-action movie will be co-produced by Alex Lebovici, executive producer of Barbarian, and Hideo Kojima himself.

No other details have been revealed yet, and it is still unclear if the A-list cast of the game, including Normal Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux, Margaret Qualley, and Guillermo del Toro would return and reprise their roles.

Aside from a live-action movie adaptation of Death Stranding and a sequel to the original game in the works, Hideo Kojima also recently announced a collaboration with Nope and Get Out director Jordan Peele on a horror project simply called OD.
