Recently, Kojima Studio released a new trailer for "Death Stranding 2" and announced that the game will be launched on PS5 on June 26. The new character "Neil" in the trailer has attracted much attention because it resembles the "Steel Snake" in the "Metal Equipment" series. Hideo Kojima also introduced the behind-the-scenes story of "Neil" actor Luca Marinelli in today's new tweet.

Hideo Kojima said that he first met Luca Marinelli through the Italian film "They Call Me Jick", in which Luca Marinelli played a villain.Then in 2020, another movie starring Luca Marinelli, "Martin Eden", was released in Japan. The film company invited Hideo Kojima to promote the film. Luca Marinelli also took this opportunity to meet Hideo Kojima and said that he was a huge fan of Hideo Kojima.

"Metal Gear has accompanied me as I grow up, I am a huge fan of you, and I'm honored that you watched the movie I starred in, and I want to tell you directly how I feel."

Later during the epidemic, Hideo Kojima began casting for "Death Stranding 2", in which the new character "Neil" was particularly important. Hideo Kojima said that the character replaced Cliff Unger in the previous work in the sequel, and fans would not be satisfied unless his casting surpassed Max Micholson.

Hideo Kojima thought Luca Marinelli was the only candidate for the new character "Neil", so he sent him an invitation, when Luca Marinelli was filming the new film "Eight Mountains".After a phone call with Hideo Kojima, Luca Marinelli agreed to play the role, which is also the first time Luca Marinelli has played in a video game.

It is worth mentioning that the actor "Lucy" who acted opposite "Neil" in the trailer is actually Luca Marinelli's real life wife Alissa, who is also an actor (and film producer). When Hideo Kojima was looking for an actor for "Lucy", Luca Marinelli recommended his wife to him.Hideo Kojima praised the couple for their performance, especially when the epidemic was at its worst, they agreed to the role when they had no script.
