In an interview with Leo Edit, the well-known TV and film actor Norman Reedus (“The Walking Dead”, “The Boondock Saints”), who gave his appearance to the protagonist of the Death Stranding game Sam, spoke about the work that had begun on the continuation of the “courier simulator” from the brilliant Hideo Kojima.
Norman did not share details on the production of Death Standing 2, but shared his memories of how he was invited to work on the first part of the game.
“Guillermo Del Toro, who gave me my first film, called me and said: “Hi, there is a guy named Hideo Kojima, he will call you, just say yes. And I say, “What do you mean, just say yes?” He says “Stop being an asshole, just say yes.” Then I was in San Diego and Hideo came with a big group of people, he’s from Tokyo, and showed me what he was working on, a game called Silent Hill. I was blown away by what he was showing me and I thought, “Yeah, let’s do this.” This is not Miss Pac-Man; it’s so realistic, it’s so futuristic, it’s so intricate and beautiful that I was just blown away.
It took me two or three years to finish all the MoCap sessions and all that. This requires a lot of work. And then the game came out and it won all these awards, and it was a big deal, so we just started developing the second part.”
There is no official announcement or comment from Kojima Productions yet.
