Hideo Kojima wanted to invite Mamuro Oshii, the author of Ghost in the Shell anime, to Death Stranding
During the Brain Structure podcast, Death Stranding author Hideo Kojima said that he planned to add the director of the full-length anime "Ghost in the Shell" Mamuro Oshii to the game.
Here's What We Know
Oshii was supposed to come to the set of Kojima Productions to go through the 3D scanning process. Unfortunately, Oshii suffered a broken bone and could not come, as a result - he did not get into the game. Kojima did not specify who Mamuro was supposed to play, but most likely, the director was supposed to get a cameo role when the game's protagonist Sam Bridges had to deliver a cargo to him.
Despite this, the game has gathered a lot of stars, especially the project is rich in Hollywood actors: Norman Reedus, Troy Baker, Mads Mikkelsen and others can be found in Death Stranding.
