Hideo Kojima asked Luca Marinelli what his friends thought of his character reveal in Death Stranding 2, Marinelli gave a fascinating answer: "Oh, Snake is wonderful. I'm so happy to be Snake." Kojima could not let this fly and immediately cleared the misunderstanding. Kojima told Marinelli, "You're not Snake. You just have a bandana on your head!"

Even Death Stranding 2's Solid Snake doppelganger thought he was playing a Metal Gear Solid character, but Hideo Kojima had to tell him "you're not snake"
"You just have a bandana on your head"
