#Legendary Video Game Developer Hideo Kojima May Be Making A Movie Or TV Show

Kojima Productions was originally established as a subsidiary for Konami, but transitioned into a private company in 2015 so that Kojima could have full creative control over his games. The first game, “Death Stranding,” was released in 2019 and utilizes motion-capture to bring Hollywood stars to life, including Norman Reedus, Margaret Qualley, Mads Mikkelsen, Troy Baker, Tommie Earl Jenkins, Lindsay Wagner, Nicolas Winding Refn, Guillermo Del Toro, and Léa Seydoux. In Kojima’s cryptic tweet, a man is seen standing on top of a stool surrounded by crewmembers. The figure is intentionally indiscernible, so there’s no way for us to know just who Kojima is working with on this new project. My money is on either frequent collaborator Norman Reedus or Mads Mikkelsen, since Kojima loves him so much.

Of course, now that “Death Stranding” has been out for over two years, Kojima is likely starting production on their next game, but the new production arm announcement did mention that the studio is working on multiple properties. Kojima Productions’ business development manager Yoshiko Fukuda said that “our new division will take the studio into even more areas that present our creative narratives beyond videogames and to open up ways for our fans to communicate and immerse themselves in these spaces.” Sounds to us like “Death Stranding” is expanding further than the video game. As for the medium “Death Stranding” may reach next, we’ll just have to wait and see.
