Raised by Wolves writer penning Death Stranding animated film

In an exciting development for fans of the acclaimed video game franchise, an animated film adaptation of Death Stranding is currently in the works. According to a report from Deadline, the screenplay for this ambitious project is being crafted by Aaron Guzikowski, known for his work on the dark and thought-provoking sci-fi series Raised by Wolves, produced by Ridley Scott.

Creative Collaboration

This animated venture is a collaboration between Kojima Productions, the visionary studio behind the original game, and Line Mileage, a specialist in animation. Guzikowski expressed his enthusiasm for the project, stating, “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.”

He further noted, “Drawing and animation have always been near and dear to my heart, so to finally get to play in this space is a dream come true.” This sentiment reflects the deep appreciation and respect Guzikowski holds for the source material, promising a unique interpretation of the beloved game.

It’s important to note that this animated film is distinct from the live-action adaptation of Death Stranding, which is being developed by A24. As fans eagerly await both adaptations, they can also look forward to the upcoming release of Death Stranding 2, set to launch on PlayStation 5 on June 26th.
