Hideo Kojimahas said it’s going to be a “tough year” for him amid simultaneous production ofDeath Stranding 2andOD, as well as other projects.
‘HideoTube’ is a littleYouTubechannel where Kojima talks - extensively - about the latest movies he’s watched. All of that is a lot to work on at once, so Kojima wants to limit his overseas business trips as much as possible. Maybe he won’t be hanging out with Jordan Peele and Geoff Keighley quite as much this coming year.
The ‘ADR’ Kojima refers to there with Death Stranding 2 stands for ‘Automated Dialog Replacement,’ but don’t worry, there’s nothing automated or AI about it at all. It simply denotes actors recording lines to get their performance as close to lip-syncing movements for their characters as possible.
Death Stranding 2 hasn’t even started Japanese voiceover recording, if you’re wondering what else is still left to do on the acting side. The likes of Kenjiro Tsuda will probably be returning for the Japanese voice cast, which will probably take place after the English voice cast has completely wrapped its work on the forthcoming sequel.
