Hideo Kojima has revealed Deadpool 2 actor Shiori Kutsuna will star in his upcoming game alongside Elle Fanning.
Kojima confirmed Kutsuna’s involvement in the project on Twitter and Kojima Productions’ website, where a poster was displayed featuring the actor’s face with the text “Where Am I?” across the image. It was followed by a second, all-black poster with the words “How Come?” plastered on it, and a logo-style stamp of a tentacled creature above the studio’s name.

Kutsana, who is best known for her role as Yukio in Deadpool 2, joins Elle Fanning on Kojima’s still-unnamed project, which is speculated to be a horror game titled Overdose. The silhouetted version of Kutsana’s poster was shared at the same time that Fanning got her poster reveal, meaning we might get another announcement for the “How Come?” image.
Kojima is well-known for his marketing stunts and has been dropping hints for a while now. He shared a tweet at the start of October referencing the “Who?” and “Where?” teasers, with one final set of question marks left, indicating another reveal at a later date. Whatever happens, we know that Kojima is working with Xbox to make the game he’s “always wanted to make.”
