For Death Stranding fans everywhere, an exciting chapter awaits. The highly anticipated sequel, *Death Stranding 2: On The Beach*, is scheduled to release in June 2025, bringing with it a tantalizing glimpse into the game’s future. Recently, actor Norman Reedus, who stars as the franchise’s central figure, offered intriguing insights into both the sequel and the upcoming film adaptation during an interview with IGN.
When asked whether he’d be open to reprising his role in a cinematic adaptation of the game, Reedus responded enthusiastically: “If it was an option, yeah, for sure.” The project, helmed by Michael Sarnoski and A24, is still in its infancy, but Reedus expressed excitement about the possibility. “I don’t know what’s happening with it,” he admitted, “It’s so pre pre pre right now. But yeah, of course.”
Reedus also shared his thoughts on the initial challenges of the first game and how his perspective has evolved for its sequel. Despite his initial confusion, he expressed unwavering trust in creator Hideo Kojima. “As far as working with him and understanding where his head’s at, I don’t think anybody can understand where his head’s at,” Reedus noted. “He’s just that guy, he’s out there and he’s got great ideas.” He added that the sequel features more action and a clearer objective compared to its predecessor, providing fans with a sense of direction and purpose.
With *Death Stranding 2: On The Beach* slated for release on June 26, 2025, fans can look forward to another unforgettable journey. For Reedus, every step in this creative process remains thrilling. “It’s always a trip working on those things,” he concluded. “It’s great, but it’s wild.”
