Eric Bana as Solid Snake.


what do you guys think?

reply

Eric Bana? Well, it could work. If they did a good makeup job to make him look a little older, more rough around the edges like Snake. If not, I'd choose someone else that is a closer fit for Snake's age. Nobody in particular comes to my mind at the moment. Bana is definitely a good candidate. I never thought he'd be able to pull off Bruce Banner, but he did a decent job in The Hulk.

If they do decide to make an MGS movie (are the rumors true?) they will need to do it right. The material is certainly there, they just need a top notch cast and well adapted screenplay. If they were to base it off one of the games, the original MGS would definitely be the better choice. The story of Sons of Liberty was far too confusing and ridiculous towards the end. If they were to try to pull off an all-new story, there is potential for disaster, because nobody could ever write an MGS story as well as Hideo and his crew. I'm definitely intrigued to learn more about this possible project. Anyone else have more info?

If they make a MGS movie, they should make it animated, or CGI like the Final Fantasy movie. That way all the voice actors could reprise their respective roles, and we'd have Hayter as the omniscient voice of Solid Snake.

What do you mean make him look older? Snake was barely 30 at the time of Metal Gear Solid

Totally agree with you. However, I'd also like to see one of my top 5 favorite actors to be him, Hugh Jackman. For some reason when I play Metal Gear Solid and see Snake, that's immediately who I think of, or a combination of him and someone else (and I could never pinpoint who it was), and now that you said it, Eric Bana is definitely that guy

My first choice for Solid Snake would have to be Hugh Jackman. He's got the gruffness, and the deep voice.

l Believe Bana Would Be AN EXCELLENT CHOICE !!!, But other Rumors are Spreading that None other then David Hayter is writing the Screenplay... So l say... Why not just be Snake As well .... .If anyone's ever Seen the Guyver II, ( Yes l know it's a "B" Movie ) But still ... he does an alright Job... and He Already Has Snakes Voice.. HE IS SNAKES VOICE, WHAT AM l SAYING? But l mean... l Myself just see it The best if the Same guy who we all know and love As Snake, Turns out to Actually Be HIM !!

OK any updates on this??

reply

From what I've heard & seen, the movie has been cancelled ... Konami is afraid of what damage might be done to the MGS series if this movie bombs ... so they've stopped the production & for now have no interest in making it.

Nope Tom Hardy would be perfect as Snake imo

In Southeast Asia we'd call this kind of thing bad karma.
