Again in 2019, director Hideo Kojima and Kojima Productions introduced us the online game Dying Stranding – and whereas followers look forward to the sequel Dying Stranding 2: On the Seashore, there’s a movie adaptation within the works at A24… and that adaptation has simply discovered its author/director. Deadline reviews that Michael Sarnoski, director of the Nicolas Cage drama Pig and the creature function A Quiet Place: Day One, has signed on to take the helm of the Dying Stranding film.
Sarnoski is at the moment in post-production on Dying of Robin Hood, starring Hugh Jackman and Jodie Comer.
The Dying Stranding movie will delve into the mysteries surrounding the “Death Stranding” – a catastrophic sequence of occasions that blurred the boundaries between the worlds of the dwelling and the lifeless, bringing forth nightmarish creatures right into a fragmented world on the point of collapse. For the online game, gamers assume the function of Sam Porter Bridges, a personality tasked with reuniting a divided America, rebuilding hope, and re-establishing connections among the many final remnants of humanity. There’s no phrase on whether or not or not Sarnoski plans to convey the solid of the online game, which incorporates Norman Reedus, Mads Mikkelsen, Léa Seydoux, Guillermo del Toro, and Margaret Qualley, over to the film.
Deadline notes that Dying Stranding captured the imaginations of hundreds of thousands of gamers, reaching over 19 million gamers worldwide.
When requested if he had thought-about directing the film himself, Kojima beforehand stated, “I have only ever thought of Death Stranding as a game. People tell me it feels like a movie, but I made it as a game – the direction, the settings, the story. So, I don’t intend to look back at it and try to see it from a movie perspective. Those works are my babies, and I love movies, so I want it to be something that movie fans will really enjoy! I’ll supervise the plot and help them make it, but I won’t direct it. I can’t right now with three on-going projects! I’ll help by communicating with a director I really trust.” Now, it seems that Sarnoski is that reliable director.
