Notes[]
- Death Stranding is Reedus' second stint with Hideo Kojima (and Guillermo del Toro), his first being a cancelled reboot of the Silent Hill video game series.
- In the early days of Death Stranding's conception, Reedus was told by Kojima that the game would make people cry; that gamers wouldn't simply be playing as him, but would ultimately become him, much to the actor's amazement.[1] Kojima has additionally been quoted saying, "This game [Death Stranding] will show a different side of Norman Reedus than fans of The Walking Dead might expect."[2]
