Over from Sucker Punch Productions, its latest release for Ghost of Tsushima continues to make waves in recent months.

Currently, casting has yet to be revealed for the film so far. However, in response to the announcement, actor Daisuke Tsuji that portrays Jin Sakai in the video game is adamant to reprise the role for the live-action film. He even backs his dedication to the role to also don the role in anticipation for any potential nudity scenes as well.

From Deadline, progress is being made for Ghost of Tsushima. In that, the production has decided on its screenwriter: Takashi Doscher. Doscher has previously penned the script for 2018’s Still and the 2019 film Only. The writer also finished a screenplay for Japanese monster film Blue most recently.
