The photos come a month after Sony announced that it was dropping its deal to publish Kojima Productions' espionage game Physint.
Michael Sarnoski's social media posts imply that the film's production is likely getting closer to the principal photography stage.
"As a creator, I have mixed feelings about this technology," said Hideo Kojima about how AI could change games without creator input.
"I normally put out teaser after teaser. This time I don't want to reveal much," he says about the lack of updates since its announcement.
Filming starts next year and Hideo Kojima also notes that Skarsgård's chemistry with actor Charlee Fraser is "very important."
Asha Sharma also confirmed in an NYT interview that the deal includes TV and film rights for possible adaptations of Physint.
Bloomberg's Jason Schreier also claims that Xbox signed Kojima Productions' tactical espionage title for "significantly less."
Kojima spoke about how he has still been in the experimentation phase for the game, and that even its game engine hasn't been decided yet.
In an interview, Kojima spoke about how he was "shocked and surprised" about Sony's decision as Physint wasn't going to be a risky project.
Bloomberg's Jason Schreier noted that no part of Kojima Productions' recent statement contradicted his own report on Physint's publishing.
"We want to reassure you all that the studio is in a healthy, profitable state" and "development for Physint continues to move forward."
In a new video, Hideo Kojima spoke about working with Skarsgård on the project, the progress on OD's development, and Xbox.
From a high-profile collaboration with PlayStation to being dropped and now working with Xbox, Kojima can't catch a break.
Questions about Death Stranding 2: On the Beach's commercial under-performance popped up since Sony stopped publishing Physint.
PlayStation also reportedly wasn't too enthusiastic about investing "hundreds of millions" of dollars into an IP it doesn't own.
The Phantom Pain was a stealth action experience like no other back in the day. That it continues to be that way is something we thought deserves closer look.
Shuhei Yoshida took to social media to post text-based emoticons depicting confusion and noting that he didn't see this move coming.
Kojima Productions spent three months seeking a new home for PHYSINT after PlayStation unexpectedly cancelled the project.
"Eventually, even digital data will no longer be owned by individuals on their own initiatives," said Hideo Kojima in social media posts.
Despite five studios apparently at risk and various layoffs, Xbox reportedly continues to support Kojima Productions' horror title.
