Kojima said in a statement. "False facts aside, a movie project is underway. I have finalized a Class-A contract with a party in Hollywood."

"According to The Hollywood Reporter, former New Line Cinema chief Michael De Luca is in talks to produce the project, with Kojima himself being named as EXECUTIVE PRODUCER."

do you know what this means if it's true??
it means this movie is NOT gonna end up like Hitman, or Street Fighter or some other b.s. game-movie adaptation. coz if Kojima has even just a nail on the project, he will make sure Hollywood makes this an Oscar... Kojima is gonna own!!!

thanks.. at last they made a movie of my number one favorite games mgs, that's what i've waited for too long ago when i was playing metal gear solid in playstation... that's my dream to watch a movie of metal gear at big screen....... thanks to Hideo Kojima my idol.. your fan Bob

cool cant wait to watch it. when is the movie going to release on theaters?

Hope they still have David hayter and all that.And i hope they release a move for all 6 games

It would be a nice nod to have some of the people that have helped with the MGS legacy be in the movie. I always love seeing Stan Lee in his Marvel movies.

I think it could be okay I suppose but it would be really great if the voice actors took some part in the game like David Hayter!! Awesome!!!

i think it would look kinda odd, if it was real life people but if they made it animated like the game's cutscenes, i think it would be really awesome.

When I saw the topic, the first thing that I thought was " Oh F***!"
please don't ruin the game for the love of everything MG....

We don't need anymore sucky game movies so do it right.

well every one saw the resident evil movie HITMAN , DOOM TOMB RAIDER. and alot more movies from video games and all these its just waste of time and money.
if they will make metal gear movie it will be a SAGA or TRILOGY i hope it will be good movie but am not sure am metal gear fan from more then 10 years so please you movies production make it goooood please

I wish it could be a direct cut and copy from the game script, but I know audiences wouldn't want to keep up with the highly detailed plot.

I hear from IMDB that Hideo Kojima is writing and directing, so it should be good

I always saw metal gear as a movie kinda thing but you know what i was kinda thinking instead they should make it a movie but animated like the comic book and all the voice actors and OMFG that would rule. but ima still watch this movie when it comes out cause im a fan of Kojima's work

IM watching it good or bad just because im a fan i wanna see this ****

I'm not so sure David Hayter would be best to play as Snake. I saw him the other day in Guyver 2 (not to be confused with McGuyver) and he wasn't a bad match, but that movie is over 15 years old and I'm not so sure he looks the part anymore. Hugh Jackman wouldn't be a bad match, but the voice would definitely be a problem, since I can't think of a single film where dubbing actually looked or sounded natural. As for Christian Bale and David Boreanz.... ummm... yeah... keep looking.

dude christian bale would be unreal!! for those that dont know hes batman in batman begins and the dark knight

It'd be an awesome movie, if it's done right.

in my opinion i should have wait at least one year after the release of the game to anounce it, because it could be one of two a great succes or another shi.... movie god i hope not ! because it is a very important and impresive game. Anyway lets wait to what happend

well i just hope those Hollywood guys don't make a horrible movie like they have done with all the other video game based movies (street fighter, mario bros, mortal kombat), resiident evil was not that bad...well
and as DonCarlone said as least snake's voice must be in the movie

it's gonna rock the world !!

Unless Hayter is Snake then it can't be a Metal Gear movie.

Whatever actor they use (I think Jackman would be a great young Snake) they should probably think about dubbing in Hayter's voice. The voice is what makes the man in this case.

sweet... John McCain as Snake!

i deffo agree with everything thesorrow395 says, keep everything simple , all the voices are perfeck for the people , GO MGS XD

Keep Phil LaMarr as Vamp.

If the original actors of the game do not play the part they should, it really wouldnt be a good movie. Listen to this crap: Johnny Depp as Vamp?! Sneaky2, what have you been smokin' and where can I get some? Eric Banner? Aussie? What the Hell?! Bendall01, you should know Snake is American. By the way, Bendall01, sleep with one eye open... And who the Hell is Nick Lachey!? I swear...Some people just dont know when to think: "Hmmm, David Hayter has played Snake since the Dawn of Metal Gear. Wouldn't it be fitting to let him play as the guy hes voiced since characters could have voices in MG games?"... Plus, I think Hideo should have appear in the movie somewhere.

Ehhh I love MGS i just hate the idea of video games being imported to movies, hope they pull it off.

Crosses fingers for the near future

youve got to have david hayter playin snake and wen is this film coming out?

Hell YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!

YES! This is probably the first promising videogame-based movie to date. sony is making it, and kojima will be on hand the entire time, executive producer basically means he is there to make sure they doing things correct and faithful, and incase they run into any problems and to answer any questions. the only thing left that is really the most crucial part, is the director. yeah, the actors will be important, but the right director is the most crucial decision.

All these names everyone is saying are the exact same over and over. Jackman couldnt do it cause of the wolverine movie. It'd take alot longer to release. Plus the thing that makes him snake is his voice. Unless David does it he has to coach the actor into sounding like snake. Thats the only 2 options. It could turn out like Slient hill. If you play the game the movie sucks if you havent the movie is awsome. And as for people saying not a single good movie based game. I thought hitman was a good movie. O and halo will be one liners and no story. But action sells.

jackman would be good as snake
plus he can change up his voice for sure

ooohhh nnoo, the greatest story in Video games with be ruined by B!t*he$.

Why not hugh jackman as snake?
He has the look but not sure about the voice.

OMG. Craped in my pants when i saw this.xD. i had no idea it was coming a MGS Movie.,

But yes it will be hard hiring a actor to actualy fit as snake, Cause like said before David Hayter is Thee voice of Snake. Only actor i can think of atm that might fit, oddly enough is David Boreanaz .

,But however it goes i realy realy looking forward to this movie))

ERIC BANNER FTW - he cold easily play Snake, plus he is an Aussie

as long as they dont make snake look bad. Snake has a good reputation, and they better not give him a bad actor...

nick lachey ...... i put snake in MyHeritage Face Recognition and he showed up haha he looks alright for the part

johnny depp as vamp
!lool

Kojimma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... please come to your senses and make sure David Hayter is starring as snake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! either in the movie on screen or at least let him track his voice over anyone whose playing the part!!!!!!!!!!!!!

David Hayter better be the voice of snake!!!!!!!!!!!.. let the actor just mimic the speech...but let David track over his crap voice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hell!!>.. let David Hayter be snake!!... he looks the part!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

as much as i absolutely love the metal gear solid series and look forward to this movie, i don't think it will ever be as good without hearing david hayter's voice when snake speaks. i mean the man's voice is synonymous with the metal gear solid and if his voice is absent i think there will be a definite gap in the game/movie transition.

OMG

Christian Bale for playing snake, screw viggo mortenson

@Burnout_Avenged

NO WAY- Snake isn't some guy with muscles as big as his head- Snake was smart but at the same time, a man with a killer's blood in him,which is what drove him.

Its about time. Metal Gear Solid can make an awesome movie. If the acting is good enough, it could be one of the top movies out there. However, If the characters don't pop out like in the game, it could be a huge disappointment.

@funnysplay
there is actually a fan movie coming out based on that and that could cause some confusion.

They should make the movie after metal gear. The very first one to come out, it was on the regular nintendo i think.

Viggo mortensen for snake. Kojima himself actually gave an interest in givnig him the part for the movie and the guy is one of the few people in recent times who can act. Anyway I am hoping that the movie follows MGS1 as that is where the story kicks off. A lot of people say go for number three but the reason it came third was to hide some of the calculated plot twists (like the story of the patriots) and number one is a lot more cinematic than MGS2. A whole movie on an oil rig just does not sound appealing.

Anyone know what game it's taking place after? They should make it after 3.
