I have thought about this movie a few times and thought about the ideal person... Alot of people want David Hayter because of his involvment with the games and uncanny look to the character but i think having him as a star when he hasnt been on screen for a while.

You need an unknown but at the same time not a total unknown.

I had thought of a few attributes needed for the role.

Phsyically fit, someone who can fight with hands on and up for stunts. But at the same time able to do some great emotional content...

So far Hugh Jackman springs to mind but it seems such an obvious choice to make, not that i wouldnt enjoy him being the role and probably think he would be able to do the character well. But in the worlds of Zach Braff in scrubs...But Hugh Jackman is wolverine.

So here is a list of characters i think could possibly play the role of snake and could do it some justice.

Milo Ventimiglia (Heroe's, Rocky Balboa)
> Now i know he's young, but at this rate by time the movie is made he may be in his late 30's. Now alot of people may find him an odd choice but here is my reason for saying he would be a good choice, 1. appart from his famous role in heroes he has yet to adone a typecast movie character. So give him a couple of years, get him do a few war movies, he would be perfect. He's a keep an eye on actor for this role.

Peter Krause (Six Feet Under)
> Always wanted to see him in a Movie role, think he could be quiet good snake. But would need to see if he could pull of the role, maybe put him in a war film.

Rodrigo Santoro (Briefly in Lost)
> Has the look of Snake but his accent will need to be more americanised.

Ha, Bale for sure. But then again, I'd say Bale for ever semi-awesome role u can think of.

But I also liked the idea of Tom Jane.

Tom Jane, maybe Josh Holloway. Michael Biehn would have been perfect a couple years ago, might be a bit too old now, could still work I guess

Yeah since Snake resebles him on the cover of the first MG game. I think he could still do it.

Biehn was put on the 1987 Metal Gear cover because if they were to make a Metal Gear movie shortly after, Michael Biehn was the man who Konami would want to play the role. I think he would have been excellent if this film was done in the late 80's- early 90's.

I remember reading an article online stating how Christian Bale was rumored to be the front runner for the role. I look at him as Batman only though and now we're gonna see him play John Connor in Terminator 4.

Most people now see Tom Jane as the Punisher but now Ray Stevenson has that name under his chin as of now so I can definitely see Jane playing Snake now more than I did before. Either way, he was still my first choice back in the day.

I love Hugh Jackman but he just kicks soo much ass as Wolverine that I cannot see helming another big named character.

I don't look nothing like Vulcan Raven!! I couldn't even stand him in Metal gear solid. That's why I enjoyed beating him in the game. I bet if I was in Dragonball you'll say im Mr. Popo????
That's almost worst then that comment you made earlier to me

You know when you said....
"You would where your hair like that? That uglier than an afro. "

It was funny until you said....
"I'm talking about a hair style not skin color. Sure it's usally african americans you see with that hair style but ive seen others with it to. And fact is no matter who they are it still looks awfull."

How can you say that when my people's hair is naturally like that?

I said Raven lite like a mini version and it was a joke. Shesh liten up.

And no i wouldn't say you should play MR. Popo.

And i don't know why you or anyone would be so ofended cause i don't like a certain kinda Hair style. So what if most african american hair does naturaly grow like that it's just hair. Not like i said i hate poepole just cause they have that hair style.

You don't even have an Afro so whats you problem?

Also why do you take offense of this now and not when i said it on the DB board?

That doesn't really matter as much as people may think. For example, Hugh Jackman is damn near 6'3 as opposed to Wolverines 5'3-5'6 stature in the comics. When people took a look at Hugh Jackman in 1999 as a normal person, they never saw Wolverine and I think many, many people can agree with me there. Now, I can see Wolverine all over him. He goes from doing the musical Oklahoma! to X-Men 1-3 and now filming Wolverine. He's a badass now. I think Jane can pull it off. I'm not dogging on Bale and I'm a fan of him, but I'm kind of tired of hearing his name. I just like him as Batman to be frank. People like seeing Jane as the Punisher but that's not the case anymore due to Ray Stevenson coming on board.

The first i saw pic of Jackman he was all dirty looking siting on a stoop and smoking a ciger. I was like damn thats our Wolverine.

And they had to recast The Punisher cause Jane got tired o waiting for them to get their butt's in gear and moved on to do The Mutant Crhonicles.

I really don't see where some people are seeing Tom as Snake. It's just like when some people said that Tom should be Max Payne... and look what happen they found someone far better for the part.

It would work maybe. His beard shouldn't be that well-shaven. And the makeup would have to make him look grittier than he does there. The biggest problem would be his voice. I don't know, I guess I overall want someone with a little more grittiness to them.

I think Bale would be a terrible snake, i mean the guy is too emotionless when he acts. you need someone like Jackman who can show emotional strengths as well as that snake qualities were looking for.

This is somewhat off topic... But I have to share with everyone that after years and years of being a Metal Gear fan, I have only just realized how overtly sexual the name "Solid Snake" is.
