Norman Reedus: ‘We Just Started the Second’ Death Stranding
After saying it was in “negotiations” in August 2021, it appears as though Kojima Productions is going forward with another, according to actor Norman Reedus.
In an interview with Leo Edit, when prompted about his career and, Reedus, who starred as Sam “Porter” Bridges in the first entry, simply said they “just started the second one,” which is something reiterated in his next quote.

However, he did speak to the cameras Kojima Productions used, but it wasn’t clear if he was talking about the unconfirmed sequel or the original.
“They have that new 5g camera too, where you can just be in a green room, and as it turns left, it builds cities,” said Reedus. “And as it looks up, it builds a sky. And you put that into a computer with dialogue. I asked Hideo, ‘Do you ever need a camera crew or an actor ever again?’ And he was like, ‘No, you’ll never capture the soul of a person. You will always need an actor.’ And I was like, ‘Thank God you’re telling me this. I thought I was gonna be out of a job.'”
