Animated Death Stranding movie gets its screenwriter

Hideo Kojima said in an interview with Vogue Japan earlier this year that an anime based on his game Death Stranding was in the works. Today, Deadline reports that Aaron Guzikowski will write the screenplay for the upcoming animated feature based on the game world. His most recent credit is the sci-fi series Raised By Wolves, but Guzikowski has also worked on movies including Prisoners and Papillon. The animated film will tell "an original story" from the same universe as the already quite cinematic Death Stranding.

Kojima Productions will be involved with this adaptation and Line Mileage is the animation company attached to the project. The executive team at Line Mileage has previous experience making animated series and adaptations. Their bios mention shows such as Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft and Castlevania that have reimagined popular games as animated projects squarely targeting adult viewers.

This film is a separate project from the live-action adaptation that's being helmed by writer-director Michael Sarnoski with production company A24 (and of course Kojima Productions). And if you can't wait for either of these movies to wrap to get more Kojima, the release date for Death Stranding 2 is just around the corner.
