Beware of the Beached Things.

Aaron Guzikowski (Raised by Wolves) has signed on to write the screenplay for a Death Stranding animated feature inspired by Hideo Kojima’s hit horror video game, according to a report on Deadline.

The official signing was announced by Hideo Kojima’s Tokyo and L.A.-based Kojima Productions and L.A.-based animation company Line Mileage.

“I love the world of Death Stranding, it’s so creatively freeing, so beautifully dark and yet hopeful; I’m so excited and honored that Hideo Kojima, whose work I’ve long admired, has invited me to dwell within his creation, to birth new stories into this fertile, mind-bending universe,” said Guzikowski.

“Playing it gave me the same emotional rush, visceral punch, and intellectual pleasure I had the first time I watched Blade Runner, or Ghost in the Shell,” said Line Mileage CCO Daniel Dominguez. “Adapting it into a form it so naturally evokes is an honor. And for Aaron Guzikowski to lend his talents, whose authorial mind and creative energy humble me… needless to say, this project is a dream come true.”
