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

Kutsuna's involvement reportedly began in the fall of 2022. At Tokyo Game Show 2024, Kojima showcased Death Stranding 2: On the Beach with 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 and living doll; and Léa Seydoux's return as Fragile.

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