If anyone is going to try and pull off Snake's deep and gruff voice, Christian Bale is the man to do it. Word is, the new issue of Nuts magazine (it's a U.K. magazine -- blame the brits for the funny name), there's an interview with the Batman himself, in which he mentions that he's gunning for the role of Solid Snake in the upcoming, and hopefully Uwe Boll-less, film adaptation of Metal Gear Solid.
Can the Dark Knight also be the man in the cardboard box? Christian Bale has taken on some seriously challenging phyiscal roles (see The Machinist), so the role of Solid Snake is easily something within his grasp. Let's start the rampant speculation now! Who would be your ideal Metal Gear Solid cast, readers?
While you're busy doing that, we'll lock Dave Houghton in a cage until the new issue of Nuts is released, so he can give us all the juicy details.

(and just in case some of you didn't know) - No, really, he played Snake Plissken in Escape from New York, so there you go.
Whatever, it'll be a mediocre affair anyway.
either hayter or nobody at all it would break the movie.
Man... :(
(psycho.)
Part of why I love MGS is because of how Solid Snake sounds. His voice is unlike many other voices you have heard. I don't mean to insult Bale, I think he'd be a great Snake, but to not include the original voice would kinda suck.
Yeah. Cheeeeeeeeeedah!
NEWSIES, FTW!!!
Over dubbing? That's kinda ridiculous. If anyone demands that much from the games, they might as well skip the movie whoever plays it.
Liquid = Clive Owen
Grey Fox = CG with voice of Lawrence Fishbourne
Ocelot = Anthony Hopkins or Gene Hackman
Meryl = Jessica Alba
Sniper Wolf = Kate Beckinsale
Psycho Mantis = Jim Carrey
Decoy Octopus / Darpa Chief = Samuel
Vulcan Raven = Arnold
Otacon = Justin Long (Mac guy)
Mei Ling = Maggie Q
Kenneth Baker = Who cares
Leigh, its cool that you dig the Bale, but as soon as he hears you been watching Nightshift Nurses, he's gonna walk the other way. Lol.
Hentai can be bizarre but strange crack (oh, that's a funny joke). I'll stop picking Leigh, time out.
Christian Bale as Liquid Snake
Sean Connery as Big Boss (who else? really)
Lee Van Cleef as Ocelot Revolver
Natalie Portman as Raiden
Thats all i got for now i guess
Yes. you heard that right.
Zach Snyder: destroying awesome comic books one at a time
Of course, a lot of decent franchises have already been shat on... *cough*Resident Evil*cough.
...uh, that's not who's playing the Comedian.

Either way, Zach Snyder is going to ruin it
