The UK publication “Nuts” (NSFW) predominantly for males, has reportedly been talking with Christian Bale, so our reader Pablo tells us,
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.
This is nothing more than a rumor at the moment, and Nuts isn’t well known for its newsworthiness. Let’s see how this one evolves.

[…] Metal Gear Solid Movie Chronicles blog, which tracks any developments regarding the MGS movie, adds Bale is rumored to play Snake, citing […]
Well, Like I said about Viggo, It won’t be David but it is still a different Medium.
i think Christian Bale would be awesome. But I personally think that Tom Jane would be amazing, he looks the role. They should just go with the storyline of Metal Gear Solid for the PS1 that plays like a movie already, that would establish the characters for everyone who isn’t familiar with the game and then the sequels could go in thier own direction.
it is an excellent idea that metal gear solid will be finally a movie but I’m not so sure about Christian Bale as Snake. Which game is the movie going to be based on?
if anybody plays Snake it should fucken be Hugh Jackman he would be fucken awsome as Snake
Hugh Jackman dude, best bet
I think Christian Bale will bring a great performance on screen as Snake but being a Metal Gear fan, I don’t think that Bale has the charisma for the character. I’d personally go for Hugh Jackman.. I mean, he’s got he physique, the look, and the David Hayter-esque voice.
So I hope, it’s just a rumor… Let Bale be known as Batman, not Snake.. man?
Hugh Jackman is a perfect fit for the role. can’t wait!
Tom Jane all the way
I agree, Hugh Jackman should be snake! In my opinion he’s a way better actor than Bale. I’m sorry, but the guy can only play the roles of the pussy characters like Batman. Snake’s not one of those kinda characters! I can definitely imagine Hugh Jackman sneaking up on someone, and slitting their throat, better than that Bale guy. No offense.……
When i first heard that a mgs movie was in the works
i thought hugh jackman would be a good choice. He’s rugged, tough and looks mysterious. I also though maybe christian bale
could be good choice but i dunno if he has the personality in his acting to pull it off. Jake Gyllenhaal could pull it off, he could kinda look the part but it would be tricky. I could also see Thomas Jane, He’s pretty tough in the punisher and could pull it off. i dunno those are just some idea’s. I will however boycott the film if they throw some actor like tom cruise or matt damon or brad pit into the rank of solid snake.
@009 Movie lol wow what alot of time for hype .
Can anyone tell me when the movie is being released?
Can’t wait as i’ve played the games and i know the movie will be great.
I think viggo mortenson would play an awesome Solid or Liquid Snake, he’s a good actor, he can act both serious and BA(Snake) or Evil and twisted(Liquid), he has the voice and body for Snake
Christian Bale is too big and baby faced for Solid Snake
Tom Jane is to old now.. i dont think hell even be up to shape for this movie like the punisher…I really think it should be ERIC DANE! from greys anatomy..hes the ultimate character that should play solid snake.
Hes a new actor and for someone to play david hayter should be someone that is not been to exposed to the hollywood world right now cause it might taint what you think of them playing the part. also i believe that hugh jackman can play the part but its just that hes wolverine and christian is bale so a new actor would be best to play this part.
bale is the best snake for this role i think they should have fatman as well trying to blow up shadow mosses they should put every mg charactor inthis movie.
I don’t know about Christian Bale but i am sure that there is nobody that can act snake’s char is the big screen.Snake is unique,the way he talks the things he says even the way he moves are a package that cann’t be found in one actor.In my opinion this movie is going to be the “nothing special”.Maybe it is something more or something less thsn that. I wish to a great movie that will make my great interest for MGS even bigger(hard^^).For me a great actor for the part would be Hugh Jackman with some look changes(more like Snake).
Hugh Jackman looks more like Solid Snake than any other actor out there.He should be offered role of Snake “HANDS DOWN”.I have been waiting for a long time for this movie to come out and I AM 100% Positive that Hugh Jackman should play this role and would do so as the best Solid Snake EVER
I think its just plain rude that David Hayter has no involvement in the movie.sry i had to say that
I think with a movie like this they need to use an undiscovered actor someone who hasnt been seen on the big screen.
Adding a top spotlight actor will kill the feeling of this movie just like when angelina jolie was added to Tomb Raider.
Most of the actors in LOTR were unheard of before the movie and look how well that turned out.
I myself believe I am a look a like to Solid Snake and I have good experience in acting.
i’m having trouble deciding who would be a better Snake,Christian Bale, or Eric Bana, Both good actors and i would really mind between the two.as long as its not Tom Jane.im not really picturing him as a good SolidSnake.
Hugh Jackman?? Okay, not that he isn’t a great actor… but… what the hell??? o_O
But whatever, I trust Bale to always take the right parts, and one way or another we’ll get to see Snake at a Theater. lol
Sorry, but I personally don’t think he fits the bill. Christian Bale would work great I think, I can totally see it. He’s got the look, and he’s an amazing actor… I can see him bringing Snake to life and onto the big screen.
I think Hugh Jackmon would be a great Snake
ok guys not including David Hayter as Snake(or other involvment)in this movie,is betrayal!C’mon David as all to play Snake,not Christian Bale and viggo doesn’t have the face for,sorry but i hate when they do horrible things like this.David is Snake’s voice actor,they can’t do that to us i can’t imagine Christian bale with Snake’s voice…we must sign a petition.
i think bale would be a good choice but if you really want the snake expierence i think you should go for sean bean he got the look the physique and deffinatly the attitude
Om my god.…
…hugh jackman would do good man…
after seeyin ya guys talk bout this subject..mmmm dunno
Christian Bale is a good one but… doesnt have the right dark voice … indeed “Yongkykun” and “Bensonman3” are right bout it
mzzl … MGS biggest fan hahaha
I think Viggo would make a great Snake. There’s nothing to say about his talent as an actor; plus i see a little bit of snake in his eyes and chin.
Kojima’s probably right…
I’m rooting for Viggo!
I think that Christain Bale would make a good snake…he has the look and duh there is alwayz hollywood make up 2 make em look older…he is a great actor and i hope he does get the role…i think that it fits him very well and i hope that this movie really does come out.. it is an awesome video game with great action and hopefully its not a haox
christian bale is good but i think hugh jackman is better.
Too bad Kurt Russell is too old to play Snake. Snake was based of his character, so why not return the favor?
Dude, Christian Bale is perfect | 3!!! In Batman Begins when he did the low voice, it sounded awesome. If he worked on it a bit he would sound perfect and LOOK AWESOME X3!! I CAN’T WAIT!!!
i say get a totally unknown actor who is new because if like somebody like hugh jackman or some other faggot it would would the movie lame and corny like when they casted the rock for DOOM i thought it was just all hype . if they get anyone they aught to get like a selverster salone [SP?] kinda guy yea know
Honestly, if you do a search by the name of David Hayter on google by image, you will see that this guy can fit very well on the physical profile of Snake…and is the voice that all of use are used to. David Hayter should be at least consider for the role.
One if their going to make an MGS movie than they have to put Huge jackman in as Snake no second thoughts there if not mabey Clive owen but that doesn’t matter as much as the fact of how greatly is hollywood gonna screw it up in general?
I mean look at past movies such as resident evil hitman and super mario bro’s (well i loved smb just cuz i was a huge fan
ect. So im looking forward to it but at the same time im worried.
eric bana or christain bale would be perfect
bad ass snake requires bad ass actor.. russell crowe?
Forget actors, the movie should realistically be done in CGI. Imagine, that way we could have the actual Snake slithering on the big screen, with David Hayter providing his voice. Then all those crazy stunts from the games would actually be possible. It’s alright seeing an actor portray Snake, but would it not be better for the role to be filled by… Snake himself?! Only thing is, that might cost a lot more, but if they’re gonna make a movie they might as well go the whole way, right? .….….….….. having said that, Hugh Jackman would be pretty cool
what the hell! christian bale as snake he sucked as batman hes no good as snake, we need a guy that looks sort of like clint eastwood for snake but not as much as a badass tough guy just a bit shady and secretive. but christian bale? wtf!?
I think they should make the film ‘for’ HUGH JACKMAN, he’s the only acter who could pull it off, hes perfect.
David Hayter should be snake
I think Bale would probably be better as Ocelot, if they have them in there. Hugh Jackman seems to be the better bet
Hugh Jackman is the perfect snake!!
Christian Bale has a weird mouth when he talks and I don’t even like him as batman much less Snake!!
Viggo .…..Two Thumbs Down
MGS .…Yeah Baby!
that would rock.. Bale does a great military guy
HOLY SHIST!! HUGH JACKMAN!! HUGH JACKMAN…you’d make a HUGE mistake if not HUGH JACKMAN
I think Hugh Jackman would be an awesome choice for playing Snake…he has a perfect voice and just looking at a photo of him I can easily picture it.
Viggo could pull it off, if hideo thinks so than I think so! Hugh Jackman could be snake, he has the spirit of solid snake at a younger age, viggo as an older snake. Christian Bale wouldn’t make the cut, he is much too young and he isn’t that great of an actor, just listen to his voice on batman it is bad. I wish kurt russell was a bit younger he is perfect.
i at tie between hugh jackman and thomas jane after seeing the mist when thomas charcter says is this part of some goverment fuck up he sounds just like snake but snake is a badass hugh jackman cna pull off one line character who do one liners like snake and make sense also viggo no way he sounds to much like a pussy(my opinon) and bale idk i agree let him be known for batman
everybody thats saying christian bale would be a bad actor should consider how well established his career is so far, he can play almost any role and puts alot of work into each one pre-film, such as losing weight for the machinist, hes played everything from a psychopath, to a bad ass, actually quite a few mentally unstable characters, but he would most definately get the job done, and well. as for viggo i am not a personal fan, but he would be a good choice, but it depends on the age of snake as well if you think about it, viggo would be an alright older snake but anything before 40 i dunno.
whoever kojima chooses i think it’ll be right. i wouldnt mind bale as snake
After seeing Spielberg´s “Munich”, I´m sure that Eric Bana could be a really decent Snake. He´s got the voice and the body, and actually it´s not the silly boy he was in Hulk. With a little makup, Bale could play the crazy “Liquid” and we would be safe from an excess of graphics and animation. I WANT REAL ACTORS AND REAL STAGES!
But Viggo… ajajajajajajaaa… please, don´t do that!
All I want it´s to see a good Revolver Ocelot in Sam Elliot. Period.
Josh Holloway from lost hes perfect
Christian Bale Would be a great Solid Snake. He’s got the build, talent, and he takes his role really seriously!
So… i think most of the people in this forum thread thing
are somewhat crazy. I think for the metal gear movie to have some success it needs an unknown actor in the ranks of snake. And then have some A or B list actors as the secondary characters. I agree christian bale would be good, but he has batman. Viggo would be good, but he has the LOTR. Hugh would be great too but he has Xman. They all have their big box office titles and their reputation will just make snake look corny to a degree. Your all thinking lets cram this movie with tons of A-listers and just because of that it will be epic, I dont think that will work, but maybe thats just me. I would like to see john voight as ocelot, i dunno if he could pull off the russian accent and be as tough but it would be interesting perhaps?
I forgot to mention that i agree with the person above
who mentioned what happend with dwyane johnson (aka the rock)
and doom, you cant just throw the big actor in town into a role with high expectations from the big fans..
no way, not christian bale or tom jane or hugh jackman. snake should be played by tom cruise. he looked just like snake in the movie collateral.
i thing christian bale is the wrong choice it shoule be some one like kurt russel
The only person truly meant to play snake is Kurt Russel, since that is who snake was modeled after (Escape From New York: SNAKE (iroquois) PLISKIN) BUT Kurt Russel is too old so the world must deal without. I think Hayter could pull it off, since snake’s face is covered by the beard and the bandana anyway and his voice is what you recognize him best for.
Why is everyone saying Kurt Russel is too old? Snake is 40 or something is the 1st MGS.
Let’s break it down nice and simple:
snake — snake’s voice = NOT snake
The whole reason anybody ever watched any single cutscene or listened to any radio in the game was to hear that gravely voice. Taking David Hayter off of this project would be like taking off super mario’s mustache. If you put christian bale in this movie you might as well just watch black hawk down.
David Hayter’s voice is perfect for SNAKE but can he be the perfect actor for SNAKE…??? I don’t think so.….
christian bale would be a wrong choice for SNAKE.….
I more like Hugh Jackmanm, he is much better than any actor for the character of SNAKE.…
two thumbs up for Metal Gear Solid.…
HUGH JACKMAN would be perfect for the SNAKE character.…
so sad for David Hayter he was a great hit for the voice of SNAKE in the Game but can he act as the SNAKE character in the movie..??? i don’t think so.….
ROCK ON METAL GEAR.…!!!!!!!
Thomas Jane from the Punisher would make a perfect Snake… dye his hair black let him grow out a little stubble, and he would be PERFECT. But I think they should make it a CG movie.
Kurt Russell is too old, but I agree his type is what they should be aiming at. And I don’t think Hugh Jackman would be good, his head is too wide. Snake has slender head and Thomas Jane is perfect. If you don’t believe me, watch the Punisher
Defo not an A list celeb to play snake but they could play as some of the other characters like ocelot, otacon, meryl, campbell, etc. Hugh Bale or viggo all can contribute a lot to the role but all of them are missing something… maybe an actor who hasnt been in many movies but still fits the role of snake. Then they cud make their debut in mgs movie and it wud make the film more appealing. I knw that wen i see an actor i havnt seen before they seem to fit their role perfectly. Sean Bean wud b ace for liquid but its a shame that snake and liqiud are twins grrrrr! he wud b brilliant as liquid! n maybe not so bad for snake. And lukin at hayter it just seems so right but yet he doesnt luk like snake as much as others do. The cgi idea is gud tho lol then the true voice of snake cud be used. Anywayz kojima will pik the right person to fit the role and if some other recognisable faces are in the movie then it may become quite a hit!
i agree that hugh jackman should be cast as the role of snake as i believe that christian bale couldnt cut it as snake. but besides that who would play the 6 members of foxhound ?
any suggestions ?
eric bana is a good actor to play as snake, just look at him in black hawk down its a awesome film.
Bale can play any role he sets out to do.
Put him in a sneaking suit, headband, and the hair, I could definitely see him as Snake from MGS1.
Christian Bale is going to be a great choice with his mustache & his chin and his long hair is going to be perfect
i suggest the other characters roles for the these actors:
gene hackman = Roy Campbell
Anthony Hopkins = Kenneth Baker
Rachael Taylor = Naomi Hunter
Ziyi Zhang = Mei Ling
Robert Patrick = Master Miller
Cate Blanchett = Nastasha Romanenko
Michael Clarke Duncan = Vulcan Raven
Danny Glover = Decoy Octopus + Donald Anderson
Jon Voight = Jim Houseman
Angelina Jolie = Sniper Wolf
in the end this is just an opinion !!
I think for Snake, the best one would be Kurt Russell(hell, he already does a Snake character!) my choices would be
Kurt Russell: Snake
Hugh Jackman: Liquid Snake
Michael Clarke Duncan or Dwayne Johnson(The Rock):Vulcan Raven
Crispin Glover: Psycho Mantis
Cate Blanchett: Sniper Wolf
Ocelot: several come to my mind, Sam Neil, Rutger Hauer(dont if he might be too old)James Masters(Spike from Buffy, has the attitude and possible the most lookalike)
christian bale is gonna be awesome for the role of snake!
he is so gonna rock the movie! he is the greatest actor ever! hugh jackmans gud but not as gud as bale
bales the perfect fit for the role and im pretty sure abt that!
hey wt abt this bale portrays snake and hayter doesthe voice actind that would be an excellent combination
although all these a and b listers sound good a lessor known but well established is necessary, and in the games it suggests that snake was trained by the sas so its possible he is british maybe this should be taken into account. all this concidered i feel the best man for the job due to his looks age and type of acting i.e. he has played an sas character and other military types including secret agents would be sean bean look him up. it makes sense
i actually do think that Bale is a good option to play the role of snake in the movie, however he will have to work out his body a bit more and to increment his body weight as well. i would like also viggo mortensen as Solid Snake!
there is something i’ll like to add: the producers as well as the directors and staffs must already now about this but i will say it just in case, if you want this movie to be successfull there are two basics thing you can’t leave behind: the 1º: choosing the best actor for snake is one of the most important thing you’ll have to face, someone that can interpretates or mimics him in all points of view, it would help a lot if that actor is really famous (like viggo)
the 2º: the most important things are the plot and the action!
you must create a plot alike to the video game, and the action must be intense, with new scenes and special effects that havent been shown in the so called “new generation movies” (the movies of today). The metal gear solid snake movie must bring us, the fans, something new in the art of making movies. Otherwise the movie will be dissapointing, remember that fans are waiting for this event to happen from a long time ago, but i’m sure that kojima won’t let’s us down!
good luck to all of you people, and let’s just pray to god the movie its going to be excelent and that it would be a worthy one!
DAmn everyon ehere knows that only The Bruce Willis would be the shit as snake.
Anyone here watch Lost? TELL me that Josh Holloway (aka Sawyer) wouldn’t make the perfect Snake… Look him up on IMDB if you haven’t seen the show and/or don’t believe me.
You guys are overlooking so many possibilities.
Alright solid snake in the game is pretty much an american hero right…alright so who out there is an american hero.…
I got it, Stephen Colbert!
Ok, this is what I think. Christian Bale was great in BATMAN BEGINS, but I don’t think he is cut out to play solid snake. Snake is enigmatic, Batman is not. I honestly think that Hugh Jackman should play snake, and have his voice replaced by David Hayter, so that the full effect of MGS can be experienced. Also, I read on IMDB that Hideo and Wimmer are going to completely change the storyline, which would make me very upset, because the script for MGS and the whole storyline is awesome as it is. I guarantee that if they deviate in any way from the game, the movie will be dog crap stew.
What about Kurt Russel? He is the original Snake, He’s played that Solid Snake attitude in both Escape movies. Doesn’t anyboby think he could still play the role of Solid Snake.
The major problem about movie adaptations of video games is that the people in charge of creating the movie rarely take any input from the very demographic that they are hoping to appeal to.
Not having David Hayter as Snake is like taking the Hell out of the Doom movie or taking the fear out of silent hill movie, oh wait those did happen, which made them box office failures.
when gamespot did a poll to see if people thought taking Hayter off the cast was a good Idea, 89 or so percent believed that it was a bad move.
Listen to us! or your movie will end in obscurity
I just say JOSH HOLLOWAY is the perfect choice for Snake.. He’s got the looks, the voice and he acts just like him!
When he played Sawyer in lost, he was almost like him!
That voice, and the looks, and they both were vondering in the jungle! Just like MGS3..
Hugh Jackman: Got the looks, but not nearly the voice like Josh. Hugh did good as Wolverine. And Hugh should stick to him, not 2 heroes.
Christian Bale: I don’t think i got neither the looks or the voice. He did Batman, and if he was playing snake, we almost are expect that snake are going to come out with this huge batmobile. Hell no!
Eric Bana: This would be my number 2 for the Snake role. He’s also got the looks and the voice, but I would immedialety expect if snake got pissed of, he would turn green.
nono, JOSH HOLLOWAYYY!!
Cheers!!
for one, i saw that someone said david hayter isnt a actor…buy a movie called the guyver 2 and you will see thats him as the star. he has done movies and has writes scripts and just about everything all these other clowns have done, but what makes him stand out from them when it comes to MGS is that he has been doing that game since what? 1997? he is snake, there is no other, and go on youtube and watch him present the video game awards he plays snake in the jungle for a little skit, that was just for fun, for a real movie their would be no better person, because in the end the thing that makes snake SNAKE is his voice. play MGS in japanese, its not the same without david hayter. yes id go see the movie but i can promise it will not feel like metal gear without david hayter, plus why the hell do they NEED to make a movie, the game is a movie itself, man just take the cut scenes and put em on dvd, turn it into a CGI movie like final fantasy advent children, or make it into a animation, but dont do a live action movie UNLESS david hayter is snake…does anyone else agree with me, or am i just typing nonsense?
ERIC BANA AS SNAKE!!! when i saw him in BHD, I saw snake.. all he needs is a little stuble and a bandana..He has to be considered..plus he is NOT associated with any trendy super heroe yet..PLEASE DIRECTOR GUYS..It has to be him!!!
I personally think there should be a new face. There’s a lot of talented guys looking for a chance. For such a charismatic role there should be a very large audition with non-famous actors.
But at the very least, if some star is absolutely needed, maybe Bale isn’t a bad choice. Better than the most I can think about: he’s quite similar to the young snake (I said, QUITE, but I’d love to see a really super look-alike actor in that role), and surely he has got the talent.
For the voice I am really disappointed for David Hayter’s absence. In their shoes I would try to make a SECOND VERSION OF THE AUDIO with him as the voice actor, just to let the people a choice in the dvd version.
P.S. I totally can’t understand why many of you talk about Hugh Jackman or Eric Bana. Oh, c’mon…
Uh, for the Kurt Russel one: he’s way too old, I’m sorry to say.
Clearly he could have been the greatest Snake.
i think the perfect actor to play snake is none other than Josh Halloway (he is sawyer in Lost).
[…] to this MGS Movie Chronicles piece, UK rag Nuts is has rumoured that Christian Bale is to play Snake in the upcoming Metal Gear […]
What about Josh Holloway? The guy that plays Sawyer in Lost. I´ve always imagined him as Snake. AM I WRONG!! http://fotogaleri.hurriyet.com.tr/LiveImages%5CFoto%20Haber%5CJosh%20Holloway%5Csawyer.jpg
David Hayter=play snake
i cant imagine hearin anyone else and ruining the character for me
It’s very possible that Mr. Bale will play the role as Snake. If you look on imdb.com it says that Kurt Wimmer has been announced as the director for the MGS movie. Wimmer has worked with Bale in the past on Equilibrium. There have also been many interviews which show a deal of interest of Bale and Wimmer working together again. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Bale played Snake. In fact, I would be delighted. Christian Bale is a very dedicated actor, and I assume he would go to great lengths to please the MGS fans. So keep your fingers crossed. With out Bale, this movie will most likely flop.
I think Myke Hawke would be better than most in this role, I saw him on a survival documentary and immediately thought “Wow, he looks like Snake”.
http://www.mykehawke.com/
How has no-one mentioned Kurt Russel?
If you put on the young Snake mask, it pretty much looks like him anyway. Plus he’s practically played the role as “Snake Plissken” (the character Solid Snake was based on) in the “Escape from…” movies. And the voice is pretty much spot on.
Oops, I may have overlooked the comment directly above mine. Many pardons.
I don’t think he’s too old though, anyone see him in Death Proof? Anyway, make up can pretty much solve that problem.
Guys,
Read up on Metal Gear History, David hayter is the man that not only does the voice for snake but was the face that matched in the first Metal Gear on Playstation. Hayter would make an amazing Snake, as Bale would too. But for once i would ahve to say go with the less popular actor for a change. The only thing that would make this movie is the original snake voice and some great fighting scenes!
i hope they will cast cristian Bale because for the young snake hed be a good one
i also think david hayter could be sanke too but i dont know how old he is so idk
but most def they need david somewhere in the movie!!!!
david hayter should be snake
You’re all being to shallow with your thoughts about this movie. if you know Heido Kojima, the maker of the MGS franchise, you would suspect that it wouldnt be based on any of his previous games. Unlike most other games in this world, Kojima’s art is brought up like episodes or even movies in its own. To make it a remake of his previous game would mean nothing to the continuation of the series, and would just be insulting to him and Snake. This means the the movie will be another story all together and may or may not bring back re-ocuring characters like Raiden and Meryl although because of the pattern of MGS the odds are great that Liqud or Ocelot will actually be a subject in this movie, although im not counting on them being a full blown antagonist. When it comes to snake, my only thought, (if i where to think like Kojima) would be to recruit someone completely new, we also have to realize that Konami will also be in on this movie, being that this will be its first big production the company may not have the funds to aquire a big start like Viggo or Bale, so all in all best bet is a brand new face, but isnt that always the best bet…
Dude, im just psyched there is finally going to be a metal gear movie…oh and are they just gonna skip the original meatal gears and go straight to metal gear solid???
Hmmmmm i thought Mark Walberg would make a awesome SNAKE he has the voice the look and the body.
Hands down, i think Hugh Jackman can play the role of snake, just by the way he looks, moves, talks and he in shape to do it, so i dont see why not him.
Has to be bale, Bale is a far greater actor than Hugh Jackman, Hugh is a closet homosexual who does Broadway.
Bale would rock the shit out of Snake.
I love this game n i had been playin this game since i was a little girl. i used to ask my brothers why dont they make a movie about this game it will be awesome i mean look at resd evil. i loved tht game and movie was kick ass too!
i am so excited about this movie i cant wait till it comes out!
n i wud love bale or jackman as snake. one agrument for bale is tht hes so fine and so is snake in mgs
I cant wait! lol
I hope Josh Holloway can be snake.. he fits so good,he got the voice and everything.
Since they are obviously DOING IT WRONG by not having David Hayter play Snake, then Christian Bale will suffice.
they do have the funds come on.….….….
but i agree a new face
Christian Bale would be PERFECT for the role of Solid Snake! They’ve just gotta use him!
I think Christian bale would make an excelent Snake, he is a bad ass, and he have the look.
HUGH JACKMAN has gotta be the man hands down. just draw a blue bandanna on his head and walla SNAKE lmao. seriously tho. it just makes sense. it fits. christain bale? ya sure.. then we would prolly get some horrible voice over or something like in batman where his voice has some crazy deep bass to it when hes the batman but sounds all innocent outta costume… lame… im not dissing on the movie at all. it was kick @$$ for sure but the voice effect coulda been layed off lol… anyhow it wouldnt be easy to be understood over a codec lol. but ya hugh jackman mos def if not… peeps are just blind… still its gotta be hard to make this movie not work tho, the games are basically just that in themselves so a live action adaption should be effortless =] i sure cant wait. fingers crossed 09′
fading scorpion ( two comments above) seriously man?? bring in a whole new character for the role? seriously? do you not remember how everyone (including me) who played mgs2 sons of liberty and when it was surprise you play as raiden peoples were like wtf is this lol we want snake… its only appropriate that snake does mgs. it is his thing and his alone.
Thomas Jane would be a badass Solid Snake, Christian Bale is good, but he’s playing too many tough guy roles. Jane has that rough, badass, shoot you in the face attitude. Hugh Jackman would be a complete disaster, no one is gonna think solid snake, they’re gonna think Wolverine with a bandanna.
I think bale would be a horrible actor to play snake so i think hugh jackman should seriously play snake but how woul he fit in the cardboard box?
I THINK THE BEST PERSON FOR THE ROLE OF SNAKE IS Eric Bana AS HE LOOKS NEARLY EXACTLY LIKE THE DAMN GUY LOL I JUST HOPE HE CAN HANDLE THE ROLE, CHECK HIM OUT ON GOOGLE IMAGES HE LOOKS JUST LIKE HIM
kurt russell could play big boss, since hes the older version of snake, despite the fact that hayter IS snake, hes a voice actor his only made a few other films, he has no experience with screen time compared to the likes of bale or viggo, so if this movie is going to look professional then they gotta use a big time actor.
my choices for snake, viggo or bale
Daniel Day-lewis for ocelot straight up. Eric Bana looks nothing like snake.
actually christian bale would be amazin!!! GUYS DID U ALL FORGET BATMAN BEGINS THEY WAY HE DISGUISED HIS VOICE HE WOULD BE PERFECT AND HE HAS THE VOICE FOR IT!!!
I think personally that David Hayter himself should play the role of Solid Snake himself because the voice would be the same. Bale would do great aswell but he has better acting as Batman
if jason stathman grows hair hed be good for the part, i dont think bale could pull it off,
not hugh jackman! the guy does musicals on his free time .…musicals.
Does anyone realize that the reason why hideo kojima actually gave a “face” to snake was influenced by onimusha? During MGS one, he didn’t realise how important it is to give a “face” to snake and hence didn’t pay much attention to it and gave him a plain look. he was later influenced by the creator of onimusha 1 and realized how an actual “face” would give the players a personality to relate to.
Snake’s look in MGS2 is, in my opinion, influenced by the look of the main character in onimusha one, which in this case, the producer actually took the look of the Asian actor Takeshi kaneshiro. Go google it and u’ll realise all 3 of them actually look very alike!
Hence, my vote for will be for Takeshi Kaneshiro as solid snake!
many of morons here don’t know much ’bout Bale, i agree that he sucks playing Batman, but watch The Machinist, American Psycho, Rescue Dawn, or just open IMDB and look for that titles, he’s a talented Actor. but i’m not vote for bale, he doesn’t have snake’s voice, i vote Jackman
Bale is a great actor, the ones you don’t like don’t know him well.
To come back to the topic, in the famous hollywood actors, I would also say Christian bale. We know he can do CQC and we know he can act good.
But
I think what would be best is to find someone, an actor of course, that is now a celebrity. This will not alter how people will interprete snake in the movie as an actor we used to see as someone else, like christian bale as Batman.
Though I suggest someone that is not really known in the states but is a great actor and did a couple of acting for American tv series like Nikita and a great movie: Shake Hands with the Devil.
Roy Dupuis.
Guys, google “shake hands with the devil” and you’ll see what I mean. He can Totally play BOTH mgs1 Snake And MGS4 snake. Though all he needs is a bit of training to fit snakes body.
JASON STATHMAN !! LOL
Noes with his accent ! his Face ! And his recently pow pow plain action film without content. He’s a good actor for big action movies but metal gear is more than that. Way more
Good point “Chase” but do you see him with a gray stache ?
Yeah…i guess it won be easy to make him into old snake, but i reckon it’ll be difficult for other candidates as well. But of course his main problem is that he looks too Asian to be solid snake, but then again, it was from him that snake got his looks!
Hence come to think of it, Solid snake is actually an Asian-looking American espionage agent. Hideo Kojima is a genius.
Hugh Jackman would be a great role for Snake. But I dont know he would look with a mullet because thats the kind of hair Snake has.
Hey if you know about acting you would go with Bale. Hugh Jackman sucks at that. But Snake does not need a great performance though so…
Thinking of Christian Bale again I think it would be waste of talent and he is too good looking. Snake is kind of shy, go with the flow character that can be played by Hugh Jackman.
If Hideo wants to give personality to Snake for the first time (like Christopher Nolan in Batman Begins with Bruce Wayne) he would have to cast a very good actor, if not go with Hugh…
Anyway have you seen Sean Bean? he also has that look alike, not a great actor indeed.
It sucks that Kurt Russell is to old.He would make the movie..
You know after seeing the new Batman I honestly felt like my favorite childhood super hero was dead, Christian Bale did a fucking horrible job as Batman and Bruce wayne, Bruce isn’t a pompous asshole like Bale in Batman, and Batman doesn’t have a retarded ass voice. In general he’s a fucking lame actor, I mean look at the way he talks, does he have a lisp? Honestly my first choice is Hayter, and second Hugh Jackman.
EVERY BODY DON´T THINK TOO MUCH HUGH JACKMAN WILL BE THE
BEST FUCKIN ACTOR FOR THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY CANT IT BE DAVID HADER.
TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON TODD CAHOON
or Sam elliot for OLD SNAKE, SAM ELLIOT
I have to agree, Bale really did a shitty voice on the new batman. I mean I seriously couldn’t take him seriously when it came to batman talking. Joker ftw though. Anyways,I really don’t care who plays the part. I mean if you really think about it people that you really didn’t expect to pull off a role like ledger did with joker actually took the cake. All I care about is if this movie will own or not.
the trailer was CORNY, dont make it look so CORNY like the fan made trailer
Christian Bale does not = Snake.
Christian Bale = SHIT.
Christian bale has a voice of Solid Snake because when he mask a batman his voice is changing like a snake… and he has the height.… about hugh jackman hes a great actor but to small to be snake and his voice… i dont think he can change his voice like bale… and about hayter???? hmmmm his voice are only good about his body lolzz.… i dont think it would be a good snake… look at his height.… lolzzzzz
some addition about david hayter.…. he has nooooooooooooooooooooooo acting experience thats why DAVID CANNOT BE SNAKEEEEEEEE.….….….… do u understand that>?????
well what about his look? He might have Snake’s voice but he doesnt look like to snake to me. I think “Thomas Jane” should be Snake
Kiefer Sutherland would make a perfect snake! he’s got the voice and he’s a f*cking legend lol
Who cares if Hugh Jackman enjoys musicals?
What difference does it make if Christian Bale starred in Velvet Goldmine ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velvet_Goldmine ) as a young gay glam rock fan and reporter?
They are both capable actors who have handled the (various) roles they’ve been given quite well. However, even with that being said, I’m still unable to picture either one of them as Solid Snake.
To me, Sean Bean ( http://www.gabe
e.com/campbell/livemovie/livemovie.shtml ) or Tom Cruise would be a better match facial-wise. But, I’m not sold on them. I’ll need to view more of their films in order to judge their acting skills.
dude i have thought for soo long how awesome it would be if they made a movie… but i think that jason statham would make an awesome snake… either way i cant wait for the movie
David Hayter is the best option to play snake in the movie. His voice is irreplaceable.
Nobody is thinking this through, snake doesn’t have a beard in the first game, at all, so wolverine would be a good choice for metal gear 3 or something but someone unknown would be better for snake.
Christian bale!
What the hell is everyone thinking? He looks nothing like Snake!
Why don’t the make the film in CG?? Then they wont need actors and they can just pay David Hayter for what he needs and deserves to do!

Talk to me on Windows Live for your opinions
Hugh Jackman does have great acting skills and out look, but we gotta remember christian bale just did terminator 4 and he is dressed just like snake. C’mon hes got the voice down just accept it the way it is shit! Its gonna be a great movie anyways.
Evry1 wants kurt russell in the movie, he’s older, fond of eye patches, so he shood be big boss and solidus. heres mgs1 shood be cast:
Snake-Hugh Jackman
Liquid-Sean Bean
Big Boss-Kurt Russell
Ocelot-Clint Eastwood or Gary Oldman
the best snake would be eric banna and second best would be ryan reynolds
Eric Bana definitely has the look but, his voice may not suite for the roll as Snake.
Can see a few others.. Hugh Jackman might be able to cut it but I would agree that if anyone should play Snake it should be an unknown.
christian bale would do a good job, but hugh jackman would be better… but yeah the best would be an anknown so it doesnt get a hollywood edge and all the obsessed fan girls flocking in.
PS1 mgs movie would be great, one of the only games of all time with an indepth story line that would work as a movie
Besides David Hayter.…
I think Bale would be great as Snake.
*Funny thing is, he’d use almost the same voice as he did in Batman lol.
ok like omfg
bale would own
have u seen him in the prestige?
he was fucking amazing
he doesnt have to be batman
hes such a great actor
he just needs to practice the role
come on guys grow up a little. hayter is not a working actor but is a proven screen writer so would be nice if he wrote the screen play and maybe a cameo for he fans. jackman is already wolverine witch is damn close to snake’s character anyway i mean hayter even wrote the first x-men screen play so jackman is out unless everyone is just looking for mgsm to be a wolverine knock off. bale is batman and i think a good one and a fine actor. but a role like batman while not the same as snake is still to close enough plus the way i see the movie is in a similar style to

so please no bale. bale and jackman have done roles close to snake already. i dont think a A list actor is a required (look @ watchmen) but cant hurt. my opinion is could give Holloway a shot. bana is a fine actor an i think would be ok. but my choice would be josh brolin. but if were him and after working with some of the directors he’s been working with i would touch wimmer with a 10 foot stick! ohh and someone said wahlberg lmao marky mark lol
solid snake esta robado en mayor parte de wolverine y de snake pliskin y ya que kurt rusel esta mas para big boss creo que la opcion es jackman,mortensen esta bien pero le falta el “GESTO DE SNAKE”,osea,Snake es muy expresibo,buenas o malas expreciones,y mortensen no.
Gerard Butler!!! But Bale is a good choice too
eric bana would be the man for snake, not hugh jackman
clint eastwood for old snake, unreal.
and probably no one is gonna agree with this,but josh holloway(sawer) on lost, as another candidate for younge snake
christian bale should play liquid snake. he would be perfect for it. snake should be layed by viggo.
it wont be metal gear without david hayter
he is the original solid snake christian bale wont be the same
although i do think christian bale could play a good snake, i think hugh jackman is perfect for the role.
I think Mark Sloan will perfect. He looks like Snake.
Ok, I hear Jackman, Bale, blah, blah… Both would play a good role I think. Even though personally, I think Jackman would play a better one, but thats me. However, has anyone seen Escape from New York? Well, first off, the main star is Kurt Russel. In the movie, he has the PERFECT and I mean the absolutely FLAWLESS look of Big Boss in his younger years. Big Boss looks identical to Snake in MGS3: Snake Eater game. When I say identical, I mean everything from an eye patch to a low scratchy voice, to a chain smoking habit. Kurt Russel may be way outdated but I could definently see him playing Old Snake (with a tad bit of makeup). As far as young Snake is concerned it is a big hit and miss ratio I think. Snake’s character and emotional aura isn’t quite like any other. All in all it is foolish to just line people up and pick one and random. Snake’s character should be well thought out\planned. Solid Snake is my favorite game character in all history (always will be period.) I would be extremely fucking pissed off if the wrong role is picked, fucking up the entire movie. People will see it and think the game would be stupid… Sorry folks, Metal Gear is the greatest, most detailed and story-ridden series in the world, and to see it fall from some money-grubbing, Hollywood shit stain would be very bad. To be quite honest, perhaps MGS should remain a game forever. Look at Silent Hill, wonderful survival\horror game. Hollywood decided to let that take it up the ass. Why were people still in the town? WTF? Anyway, some things are best kept left alone.
christian bale as young snake and sean cannery as old snake..
yeah David Hayter all da way dude! XD It won’t be Metal Gear without him, I mean his voice
i think eric bana would be perfect. he is just like snake. watch in troy, he even quotes a line snake says. Ive killed people and theres nothing glorious about it. snake says same thing to raven in mgs1
Hugh jackman = snake
hugh jackman, he has the build and the acting, christian bale did a great job as batman but i dont think he has the physical ability to act as snake, hugh jackman has the experience espieally if he has to do a multible role playing as snake and liquid or snake and solidus he would be the best person to play as snake.
gerard butler…thats it. take a look at the poster for “Gamer” he looks like snake! he can obviously pull it off physically,i.e.,300. beside that i wouldnt mind if Bale played snake, as for Hugh Jackman, good actor but the role just doesn’t fit him well. oh and gary oldman as revolver ocelot would be awesome!

i think hugh jackman would be a pritty good young snake
Hugh Jackman would be great. In Xmen Origins: Wolverine, There’s a scene where Wolverine and Sabertooth are back to back, defending themselves from soldiers in Vietnam and Hugh Jackman looks exactly like Naked Snake from MGS3
