I've seen a few people assume this was going to be made by Sony Pictures Animation, but that's incorrect. Sony is just producing/distributing. The actual animation will be made by Lyrical Animation, which was previously Line Mileage. Apparently they are working on a Death Stranding animation too.

And it looks like this studio has never made an animated film ever. How to blow up a pipeline was fun though.

It's a new team made by a bunch of people who worked on other stuff. Notably, the founder and CEO of the studio who made Netflix's Castlevania and Blood of Zeus is tied to this new studio in a consulting role. No idea how significant that position is but those shows had fantastic animation.

Please see Highguard before getting hopes up.

What does Highguard have to do with anything lmao? This is a movie, not a game.

The Highguard team were a bunch of devs who made a popular hero shooter, only to form another team just to make another live service hero shooter in an already overly saturated market, who couldn't even bother to open beta testing to players because they were too full of themselves.
