Metal Gear Solid Movie Confirmed. Director is...

Since it's about a movie it goes here, not the arcadium:

Jeremy here...

After eight long years of development, Sony is finally moving forward on a big-screen adaptation of the popular METAL GEAR SOLID video game series. According to Deadline, THE KINGS OF SUMMER director Jordan Vogt-Roberts is in early talks to direct the film, which will be produced by Avi Arad. There's no word as to who will write the movie, which leads me to wonder if Vogt-Roberts will also get a crack at the screenplay. I'm told he's a huge fan of the game and that he lobbied hard for the gig. If Sony believes strongly in Vogt-Robert's vision, they could do a hell of a lot worse than to give this very talented filmmaker a chance to craft the story.

Once the deal makes, I wouldn't be surprised to see Sony set a release date, as all of the prime tentpole real estate is getting gobbled up several years in advance now.

If this were a perfect world and it was 20 years ago, Kurt Russell. All he'd have to do is play Snake Plisken

It's been a passion project for years though for Sony and with the right director and with Kojima handling something on the creative side and steering the ship it'll be all good

Fukk who plays Snake now? Seriously I'm drawing a blank. I'm watching 300 now and Gerard Butler has the attitude to pull it off but I can't see him with the hair. Tom Hardy would be another good choice but he's doing Splinter Cell. Jack Bauer would be a good choice too but he's fukkin Jack Bauer

Thought about Fassbender but he's the assassin lol. I know you don't care but the studios will. and he's a producer on creed so that's a passion project for him too.

Anson Mount from Hell on Wheels would be a good look
