Thomas jane is a bitch dude, I lost all respect for him after Punisher. Vin diesel looks the part of Vulcan Raven. Hugh Jackman is a good choice, but also consider Viggo Mortensen, But you can't deny that Kurt Russell (Escape from New York) would be the perfect big boss, Solid Snake was based on him anyways(Russell's character even had the code name snake), to confim it, in MGS:2 snakes false name was Iriquios Pliskin, Kurt Russell's character's real name was Iriquios Pliskin. so since Kurt Russel is to old to play snake, he is the ideal big boss(snake is one of big boss's clones).

The reason I used Michael Clarke Duncan for the part of Vulcan Raven is because he has the size, he's a big person and as for Snake's role, I'd choose Kurt Russell over Thomas Jane (Escape from New York is my all time favourite film) but my choice of Hugh Jackman still stands.

No the Rock is Vulcan. Hugh as Solid Snake is perfect but he'd have to play Liquid to. And Danny Glover should play Roy Cambell. Bonnie is good for Meryl but i see somone like Niki Cox, Lita or Kristana Loken in the part.

Xenos I like some of the ideas you have posted. Kristanna Loken I would consider using, but for the part of Sniper Wolf, not Meryl. And Danny Glover I'd definitely say no to, my actor list is done to be realistic, the role isn't gonna be that big. But I'll think about The Rock.

The Rock is a good choice, but think about Vin Diesel too(he has a less crisp, commercial look, Vulcan Raven is an eskimo shaman). And all I have to say about having Jackman playing both solid and liquid is The 6th Day(horrible Gov. Arnold movie). There is no movie that effect has looked good in. Viggo Mortensen as Liquid and Hugh Jackman as Solid. And I also like Kira Knightly for Meryl, but Kristanna Loken is good too.

I agree that Hugh Jackman shouldn't play both Solid and Liquid, thats why I believe Sean Bean would be anideal candidate to play Liquid. I can't see Vin Diesel in this film, and I definitely can't see Jack Black portraying Snake, altough I'm really starting to see The Rock as Vulcan Raven

sean bean is alright, but he looks a bit older thean hugh jackman, he couldn't play opposite him. Although since Sean Bean isn't a huge actor it would be easier to get him to play the role(considering that Liquid comes back as only his arm and his voice, which are attached to Ocelot in the second game), And I wish they would start a t metal gear, at least as a flash back sequence in the beginning. It would make it easier for the non gamer audience to get into the movie.

He might pull it off, but I think Lance Henriksen fits the criteria better, plus I think if Kurt did it, it might cause criticism with his role as Snake Plissken. But I have found out from a friend of mine that Kurt Russell is lending his voice in the role of Snake Plissken as a video game, I think its called Snake Plissken Chronicles of something

Kurt Russell will not play as solidus or big boss as He was Snake Plissken before in ESCAPE TO L.A and ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK. or whatever it was the movie was terribly crap.

I reckon that Eric Lutes should play the role of Hal Emmerich... I mean come on take a look at him on "So Little Time" he looked exactly like Hal did on MGS2: Sons Of Liberty... I think they modelled Hal on him...

Solid Snake- Hugh Jackman could work, but so could David Hayter (provided Snake's voice in games, has been an action star)

Meryl Silverburgh-Rachel Mcadams (Red Eye) is perfect for the role-young, spunky

Otacon-Adrien Brody-reserved, smart, perfect!

Grey Fox-Jason Statham- Has anyone seen him in the Transporter?

Revolver Ocelot-Sean Connery-Old and experienced

Liquid Snake-Julian McMahon (Fantastic Four)/Cilian Murphy (Red Eye)- both were absolutely chilling.

Colonel Campbell-


Psycho Mantis-Ralph Fiennes

Sniper Wolf-Angelina Jolie-she's hot and doesn't have to act much!

Naomi Hunter-Scarlett Johannson

Natasha Romaneko-Izabella Scurupco (Natayla in Goldeneye 007)

DARPA Chief-Denzel Washington

Vulcan Raven-Michael Clarke Duncan

All your ideas are great, especially those of the rock playing the Soiux indian warrior Vulcan Raven, ideally portrayed as menacing character decorated with Souix indian tatoos yet displaying a code of warrior honour of some sort- but only appearing in later films. Also Donnie Yen woud make a great Gray Fox but he would have to look battle weary in the character path that I'm considering, Mr Yen would have to handle the fight cheoreography along with the military advisor Motosada Mori delving into the close-quarters combat. Kurt Russell-in order to be recognised as Big Boss would have to be scarred by battle; physically and psychologically, in so creating a character who sees his actions as virtuous-in so justifying them to an understandable point- the Metal Gear theme of what/who do we fight for-are we just pawns for the government. Now the direction I would like to see the Metal Gear movie being taken is a recreation of the first two Metal Gear games-Preferabbly a two contract movie deal with possibilities of more. My reasons are as follows: the Metal Gear Solid Series has been delivered to us as beautifully cinematic as it could have been by Mr. Hideo Kojima, a story that could only be told through the medium of Video Entertainment-so in the translation of the these games into motion pictures would simply mean a potentially bad rehash of dialogue and scenes taken from these already cinematic games. The ideal script using the first metal gear games as a framework would have to be written by hideo Kojima along with David Hayter who have both worked together and understand the universe and the characters involved. The Direction being overseen by Mr. Kojima with Kurt Wimmer (Equilibrium) helming as the director.

So my cast outline is as follows:
Big boss: Kurt Russell- Needs to bulk up.Grow a Grey Beard. Brown Hair with a hint of grey.

Another excellent potential candidate for the role of Big boss is Viggo Mortensen, sporting Dark Brown and grey hair and beard.

Grey fox: Donnie Yen- Gray Fox-buzz haircut-riddled with slight facial scars.

Solid Snake: Josh Holloway ('Lost')-Sporting Brown Hair-Solid snake hairdo and Physique.

Revolver Ocelot:Peter Stormare-Vocal lessons to sound like Ocelot but still retain slight russian twang. Black hair and moustache-hints of grey. (Not a major character as of yet- apears in scenes dialogue with Big Boss, almosts always hidden by shadow, only parts of his face and gleaming revolvers apparent in the shadow-his dialogue develops his character. Returns in the following movies centering on the Solid snake trilogy.

Liquid Snake must also kept in the shadow, seen from afar by Solid snake observing Big Boss with his Scope. ( if a competent actor that looks like Josh holloway is found please let me know)

Master Miller: Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa

the VISUAL EFFECTS Supervisor should be John Gaeta and his team ('The Matrix" trilogy)

And definitely Harry Gregson-Williams who did an excellent composition for the video games.

The rest of the cast I leave to you.

Thank you for the inpiration, and lets get this reverred Video game to movie adaption done right- proper time should be dedicated to training of actors and development of story and visual style to insure a pleasant viewing experience. which is wht the Games intended for us, the pleasing of all our senses, our psyche and emotions

The movie should also carry a age restriction of 16 y.r.o-justified violence and language and some sexual references as seen in the Games.

Remember Metal Gear is all about the undlying themes and philosophies, its driven by the characters and not just the action or special effects which are mere tools of storytelliing.

I urge you to read the stroyline of the first Metal Gear Games at these links:

I think Vulcan Raven can be played by Glen Jacobs aka Kane the wwe wrestler. He is big strong scary looking and with his bold look he could pull off the Raven character.
