“Adult-Targeted” Death Stranding Anime Movie Announced, Joining Live-Action Film
In addition to a live-action Death Stranding movie, an “adult-targeted” animated movie based on the game is in the works.
Deadline reported that Aaron Guzikowski, who wrote the 2013 Denis Villeneuve movie Prisoners, has reached a deal to write the screenplay for the Death Stranding animated movie. The movie is being billed as similar in tone to the adult-focused anime movies like Predator: Killer of Killers and the upcoming John Wick animated prequel.
“I love the world of Death Stranding, it’s so creatively freeing, so beautifully dark and yet hopeful; I’m so excited and honored that Hideo Kojima, whose work I’ve long admired, has invited me to dwell within his creation, to birth new stories into this fertile, mind-bending universe,” Guzikowski said.
