Hideo Kojima recently presented actress Shiori Kutsuna with flowers, acknowledging her significant contributions to the game. Kojima's message praised Kutsuna's dedication, highlighting her motion capture work in Los Angeles, 3D scanning, and voice recording (both Japanese and English) across various locations, even amidst pandemic-related challenges.
Kutsuna's involvement reportedly began in the fall of 2022. At Tokyo Game Show 2024, Kojima showcased Death Stranding 2: On the Beach with several two-minute cutscenes introducing key allies to the protagonist.
Notable cast members and their roles include George Miller as Tarman, captain of the Magellan mobile base; Fatih Akin as Dollman, a former medium; and Léa Seydoux returning as Fragile. Elle Fanning portrays Tomorrow, a mysterious character discovered in a death-like realm, echoing the original Death Stranding tagline, "Tomorrow is in your hands."
One cutscene features the characters singing Burt Bacharach and Hal David's "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head" while interacting with a pregnant woman named Rainy (played by Shiori Kutsuna).
