Kojima Productions in a new page on the company's website has revealed Invasion actor Shioli Kutsuna will appear in an upcoming game from the developer.
The page features an image of Shioli Kutsuna with the text "A Hideo Kojima Game x Shioli Kitsuna" and "Where am I?" The image also changes to a second image that is black with white text that reads "How Come?" and the Kojima Productions logo and what appears to be some monster above the logo.
The image is in the same layout of another image that confirmed Elle Fanning, best known for her role as Aurora in Maleficent, will appear in a Kojima Productions' game.

With the dip by dip info we are getting from Kojima in about 10 years we may know what the game is about.
I actually feel like he’s prepping for a reveal in the next 1-2mo based on this second actor reveal. I’m assuming a reveal at TGAs.
Does anyone actually prefer/like it when a celebrity has their likeness portrayed in a videogame? (Not counting games based on movies featuring those actors.)
The only time I can remember off the top of my head where I liked it was Kiefer Sutherland paying Snake... said no one ever. No but seriously, it was when Jean Reno was in Onimusha 3, back in 2004.
Yes at least I do. From quantum breaks, halo 5 to the last of us to death stranding. I like seeing a celebrity being portrayed in a game
I see, I see. Fair enough.
I don't personally have a strong preference either way, although I'm not all that familiar with celebrities, so I don't recognize them well either. That said, paying for celebrities to appear in games seems like a bit of a waste in terms on money, although I suppose it's probably just a drop in the ocean for most games with celebrities.
I normally think celebrity likenesses/voices are a waste of money that could go elsewhere, and part of the reason why I'm not a fan of Kojima is because he seems to have frustrated filmmaker tendencies that spill over into his game design, and not in a good way (I felt the same way about Sakaguchi when he was betting Square's farm on The Spirits Within).
I will admit that I enjoyed Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa appearing as Shang Tsung in Mortal Kombat 11. Part of that was because I went to see the Mortal Kombat movie with my dad when I was a teenager, and we both enjoyed it, and with my dad having recently passed away, ti was kind of bittersweet seeing Tagawa reprise the role.
No Norman Reedus? No Geoff Keighley?
