Hideo Kojima may have his fans and detractors, but one thing that cannot be denied is his impact on the video game industry. His next project is Death Stranding 2, which, like the original installment, will feature high-level actors and one of them has just revealed how he found out about the importance of working with Kojima.
Although the sequel still has many secrets to reveal, it is known that one of the key pieces will be the character played by the beautiful and talented American actress Elle Fanning (Maleficent, The Great). Although she, at just 25 years old, has participated in major Hollywood productions, she acknowledged that none of them has given as much to talk about as Death Stranding 2.
In an interview with Josh Horowitz, Fanning mentioned that the same people who worked on Avatar are involved in the project through a motion capture studio located in Los Angeles and confessed that “I had never done it before” and certainly, because it is about the first time he did face capture for a video game project.
