The Death of Robin Hood director Michael Sarnoski is gearing up to helm the first-ever live-action Death Stranding movie, which is quite the departure from the A24 action-thriller about everyone’s favorite folklore hero.

“I wouldn’t say the script is very violent. There’s definitely a lot of, like, action and excitement to it,” Sarnoski tells GamesRadar+ when asked how Death Stranding compares to The Death of Robin Hood. “There’s some violence to it. I mean, Death Stranding is a brutal world… and it’s a world also where it feels like death is just around the corner. So there needs to be that sort of visceral sense of, ‘oh, this could be it.’ It’s sort of [a] bleak and barren post-apocalyptic environment. So there is violence and action to it, but the role of violence is very different from this one. [The Death of Robin Hood] is a movie that kind of questions violence.”
