Stefanie Joosten (born August 5, 1988) is a Dutch model and actress living in Japan since 2011. She first gained widespread public attention when Japanese developer Konami revealed she would be providing the motion capture, voice, and likeness for the character Quiet in Hideo Kojima & Konami 2015 video game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.
Early life
Stefanie Joosten was born in Roermond, Limburg, in the southeastern reaches of the Netherlands. As is common for Dutch people, she was taught English from an early age. Claiming to have been obsessed with the otaku culture since she was young, Joosten decided to study Japanese language and culture at Leiden University.[3] In 2009, she went to Kyoto for a year as part of an exchange program.[1] It was after this experience that she decided she would move to Tokyo after earning her degree back in the Netherlands.[1]
Career
While studying abroad in Japan, Joosten came into contact with several modelling agencies that happened to specifically seek Western models. This included an eventual call from a mystery agent who was looking for models to help with an undisclosed video game. Stefanie, an experienced gamer, became suspicious when she recognized one of the people during the auditions. She later found out this was the famous video game developer Hideo Kojima, giving her an idea of what she had auditioned for. She was chosen as both the visual and voice model for Quiet, a central female character in the Metal Gear game Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.[1][4]
