A24 is teaming with Kojima Productions on a live-action feature adaptation of Death Stranding.

The game features an all-star cast including Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux, Guillermo del Toro and Margaret Qualley. The game is set in the United States following a cataclysmic event which caused destructive creatures to begin roaming the Earth. Players take on the role of Sam Porter, a courier tasked with delivering supplies to isolated colonies and reconnecting them via a wireless communications network.

Said Kojima in a statement on the film project, “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.”

A Death Stranding sequel game has also been announced as being in development for PlayStation 5, with Kojima himself serving as its writer, director, producer and designer.

With the game featuring such an all-star cast, we do wonder if the film will feature the same actors? What do you think? And are you excited for this upcoming film adaptation? Let us know in the comments!
