The upcoming superhero movie is about to shake up the entertainment industry with the return of Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine and Kojima is here for it. Expect to read a detailed review on his X page as soon as the film is released.

Hideo Kojima Is Excited for Marvel Studios’ Deadpool and Wolverine

Director Hideo Kojima is a huge fan of Marvel movies and is already hyped for Deadpool and Wolverine.
The Japanese director is a man of culture, and his creative vision is inspired by his passion for films regardless of genre. Kojima shared the official poster of the upcoming Marvel film on his personal Instagram page and said nothing, which speaks volumes about how he feels about the highly anticipated superhero flick. The poster was shared shortly after the official trailer and it can only be described as gritty and marvelous.

The upcoming film is anticipated to have a lot of unexpected and bizarre plot twists as well as cameos, as the R-rating and blessing from Marvel president Kevin Feige gave director Shawn Levy a lot of creative freedom.

This type of storytelling is right up Kojima’s alley, as he is known for embracing the strange and convoluted narratives seen in his previous works, such as Death Stranding.

Traditionally, the director would share his two cents and the length of his review is the determining factor whether he likes it or not. The major contrast between his review of Sony’s Madame Web and Dune: Part Two is a great example of how Kojima would review movies. Being in the business this long, his opinion carries a lot of credibility and even he is impressed and ecstatic for this long-awaited team-up.

Deadpool and Wolverine Could Inspire Hideo Kojima to Make a Superhero Game

Marvel Studios’ Deadpool and Wolverine will be released on July 26, 2024, only in theaters.
The lines between live-action films and video games are beginning to blur; many popular Marvel heroes, Wolverine included, have already taken the game industry by storm. Marvel’s Spider-Man of Insomniac Games has paved the way for these characters to shine in this format, which is Kojima’s area of expertise. Perhaps this movie will inspire the director to work on a superhero game in the future after his commitments to Sony and Microsoft.

The general audience is always excited to see a new Marvel movie, despite recent box office shortcomings and a decline in quality. Many are hoping this multiversal road trip with the two iconic mutants can shift the tide and steer the Marvel Cinematic Universe back on track. Kojima loves stories and does not care about the genre as long as they can evoke a certain emotion.

Hideo Kojima can make anything great, and his seal of approval has a great bearing on success. Marvel Studios can recapture the same lightning of success with nostalgia, without being held back by restrictions or ratings, and deliver an authentic Deadpool and Wolverine experience that Kojima and the rest of the fandom can enjoy.
