Christian Bale set to play Solid Snake

[AnorexicBatman]

In May 2006, Metal Gear series creator Hideo Kojima announced that a film adaptation of Metal Gear Solid was in development. The film was purported to be in English, said to be released some time in 2009. Kojima also announced at the Electronic Entertainment Expo later that month that he had negotiated a contract with a party in Hollywood to adapt the video game into a film. Kojima also considered Alaska as the site of the film production, due to the game's setting in the state.

David Hayter, the English voice actor for Solid Snake, had submitted his take for the movie but executives have passed on his script. He has previously written the screenplay to X-Men and co-written X2 and The Scorpion King.

Producer Michael DeLuca has expressed interest in having Equilibrium director Kurt Wimmer write the script for the movie. Later on Kurt Wimmer was opted to direct the movie adaptation. Konami's Aki Saito had commented that There Will Be Blood director Paul Thomas Anderson was interested, however this has since been refuted by producer Michael DeLuca. Actor Christian Bale stated in a Nuts magazine interview that he was in the running for the role of Solid Snake. It has been confirmed that Amy Adams has been asked to play Meryl

**** off

i dont mean that in a "go away" sense

but i mean seriously... Batman..John Connor..Bob Dylan..Patrick Bateman... AS IF we will get him as Solid Snake..AS IF

Considering his ever increasing popularity
This seems to be the case

The lol part is that since all snake's are clones, the entire movie is going to be a bunch of bale's talking about meta-physical concepts and kicking ass

it would be a fans dream
a film about bale and his clones being awesome and kicking ass

its just not going to happen, sorry

Actually you are right. Even in the games only Solid Snake and Big Boss have a near perfect resemblance. But this topic is about the a possible movie. Perhaps I should have named the thread differently.

As long as Hideo Kojima is on board everything should be fine. He's pretty strict....
