Nicolas Cage Visits Kojima Productions Studio in Tokyo

Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima shared photos of himself with actor Nicolas Cage at the Kojima Productions studio in Tokyo. Standing next to the statue of studio mascot Ludens, Cage can also be seen writing a message to Kojima and the studio team thanking them for the tour.

Kojima previously posted pictures of his meetings with other notable people on his Sony’s Jim Ryan and Microsoft’s Phil Spencer. While some will interpret the tweets as a teaser for a potential collaboration between the two, it is also entirely possible for it to have been a social visit.
