In the latest edition of Nuts magazine ( UK ), there is an interview with Christian Bale, in which he states he's in the running to play Solid Snake in the 2009 movie Metal Gear Solid.
I think the voice matters as much as the look of the actor, so I think Hugh Jackman would have been the best, but Christian Bale has a voice similar to Snake and he is a very good actor.
He already screw up the Jack Ryan Charactor (what were they thinking ,not using Harrison Ford) and you want him to screw snake too?
Bale wasn't my first choice, but he's a good actor, I think he'd do it well.
No ones said Ed Norton yet. I dont know if it really suits him but hes so brilliant I think he could pull anything off. How would have thought he'd do something with as much power as American History X?
I think your confusing British with English - which isn't at all uncommon to do. English, Scottish and Welsh people are all equally British - and they all have different accents. There is no "British" accent. Heck how many different English accents are there - lots! Same goes for Scotland and Wales. Saying "British" accent is like saying American accent - practically every State in America has at least one unique accent.
He should have won an oscar for Equilibrium. (criminally overlooked because people thought it was a Matrix rip-off. It was more like 1984 and Logans Run) The Prestige was a work of genius that sadly seemed overlooked by almost everyone. Batman was great. Empire of the sun was a classic. His acting in The Machinist was legendary.
And you know he can do that raspy voice like snake's because of Batman
I also liked him in that Dragon movie, even though he was kinda soft in it
Equilibrium was a great movie, I have got to find a copy.
Great choice for Snake, he is a great actor. I like Kurt to, but the younger generation won't really gravitate to him as snake. Hugh Jackman is a little played out to me and is not as good of an actor as Christian.In American Psycho he was craaazzyy Good.
hell yes. batman begins was fucing sick and the dark knight is gonna b better. if u trhink of it, chris bale would b perfect choice if solid snake will have long hair like in mgs2
it will get dwarfed by the HALO and Gears of War movies .. the former being produced by the great Peter Jackson
MGS movie can't be well done -story wise- because cutscenes in MGS games make up 5 - 6 hours .. so no matter how MGS will be, it's story will be half-a$$ed.
All movies based on PS games suck .. Silent Hill was Horrible
Never thought about Bale, but he might actually work. Kurt Russell should definitely make a cameo appearance or something, though (and if anyone doesn't know why, shame on you).
what about david hayter? he is perfect for snake, he is half japanese half american like snake and he also look alike, at least he should do the voice dubbing in the movie too
but not superman, found the new one quite dissapointting, i think they tried to stay true to the original Christopher Reeves ones, which is understandable but i woulda liked a bit more action! i wanna see superman smashing people through buildings and the like, ive had enough of the "Ooooh i wonder how louis will get out of this one..."
what about a Batman Vs Superman? the comics always rocked!! a movie would to!
edit: yeah i heard he said something like that in an interview! but who would win? id like to think Batman like in the comics, he makes gloves out of cryptonite (dont know how to spell it before some one jumps on me) and then proceeds to beat the sh1t out of superman!
Yeah I think it just appealed to the hardcore Superman fans but could not compete with the modern day action hero movies like X-Men and Spiderman. But Bryan Singer has promised more action for the sequel, this time with two villains.
Superman was the most expensive movie made I heard? Over $200m for a budget. As for a Batman v Superman? Interestingly Bale said this would happen but after Batman 2 and Superman 2.
I agree with you on that. Never was into comics, but I always prefered batman to superman. Superman was like invincible to anyone that didnt have kryptonite. Batman didnt have any super powers, he just kicked ass.
I would choose Clint Eastwood. He is probably my favorite actor. But, I understand that he is to old and Bale would be perfect for this day and age.Could you imagine Clint playing snake in his prime? It would be perfect.
WTF? Do you guys really want to see Metal Gear Solid as a Live Action movie? Come on! How about a CGI movie (so that David Hayter can still voicing Solid Snake)? We all know that most films that were based on games kinda suck....Please don't screw us again Hollywood
They really should use Kurt Russell from escape from New York
Hugh Jackman looks very Solid Snakeish too, but he's out of the question since he has a busy filming schedule in 2008-2009
anything is better than Chuck Norris.
Kurt i must say he is one of the best classic actors i can think of
PS Snake is old
can't go wrong with russel or bale
i think Christian Bale will do well with MGS. (and hes a Brit ;) )
