Hideo Kojima recently presented actress Shiori Kutsuna with flowers, acknowledging her significant contributions to the game. Kojima's message praised Kutsuna's dedication, noting her motion capture work in Los Angeles, 3D scanning, and voice recording (Japanese and English) across various locations, despite pandemic-related challenges.

Kutsuna's involvement reportedly began in Fall 2022. At Tokyo Game Show 2024, Kojima showcased Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, unveiling several two-minute cutscenes featuring key allies.

These included: George Miller as Tarman, captain of the tar-lake traversing mobile base Magellan; Fatih Akin as Dollman, a former medium now a living doll; and Léa Seydoux's return as Fragile.

Elle Fanning portrays Tomorrow, a mysterious character discovered in a death-like realm, echoing Death Stranding's original tagline: "Tomorrow is in your hands." One scene features the characters singing Burt Bacharach and Hal David's "Raindrops Keep Fallin' on My Head," interacting with a pregnant woman named Rainy (played by Shiori Kutsuna).
