An insightful and talkative interview with Christian Bale regarding Metal Gear Solid

[Solidus]

Hugh Jackman would be a better Solid Snake (or Big Boss) than Bale, in my opinion. I mean, just look at the pic below, he already has the tuxedo camo!

Hugh Jackman in the scientist camo from MGS 3:

Naked Hugh Jackman (or Naked Snake)

Before this gets too creepy, I'll stop lol. But, you get the idea. Hugh Jackman = the perfect Solid Snake. His acting is also top notch.

 

[gabberjawa]

He wanted to rip out the dude's balls

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Eastwood in his heyday would have been my choice, but logically, I will have to rescind my vote and state Jackman FTW. Good choice Solidus.

Plasmid, unless you're hinting at Snoop being Snake, you may want to update the clip in your first post

IMO, seems like Kojima is making Snake resemble Jackman with each sequel.

 

[Fives]

good call Solidus01, Jackman would make an excellent Solid Snake.

For those who can't watch the interview clip (or get a snoop dogg music video when they try), this is the page where I got it, but I don't know how much that'll help:

Bale is over exposed.
Id like to see a few movies come out that he has nothing to do with.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

..Bana is good in supporting roles, but seems to lack punch when he is the central role/star in mainstream films.

i guess you never saw Munich??
~~i agree that eric bana would be a good snake.

Wooks! Nno, I haven't seen that one. I'm thinking more in terms of films like Hulk, but I suppose that had more to do with the directing. Trying to put his acting in that film in a setting like mgs, might be giving me that bias. I do think he is a good actor, though I've appreciated his acting more so in independent (and some recent aussie films), over his hollywood roles. Having said that ..the link johhny posted of him with the bandana really looks the part of Snake!

 

[The Tuggernaut]

My two choices for Snake are Jackman and Bale. I'd love to see either of these guys play Snake. They both look the part (more or less), and are both outstanding actors.

 

[Sachiel]

Put them both in. Solid vs Liquid. The Prestige all over again.

 

[laudanum09]

Put them both in. Solid vs Liquid. The Prestige all over again.

that's a really great idea because of their on-screen dynamics but either one would look horrendously douchey with long blondeish/brown hair. I'm thinking maybe Daniel Day Lewis would make a cool Liquid, he's already done roles with long hair and has had long hair in person. I think that's important for Liquid, someone who can look menacing with the Van Halen do.

Bah, you're all fools. the way Hideo Kojima controls metal gear with an iron fist, if there is EVER a move He'll pick the guy to be solid snake.

And my money says that Hideo Will stick with David Hayter, since he seems to love the guy as much as he does.

And besides, this video is awesome.

no matter what, If solid snake has a Voice other than David Hayter,, then it's not Solid snake.

Besides, i think snake was kinda modeled after him as well.

 

[Mongoose94]

Am I the only one seeing a clip of Young Buck!?

No. me too

 

[Nocturne]

Is it really bad that the first thing I thought was that someone had sucked all the fat off of Ricky Gervais ?

took me a moment to realise that it was Hayter

 

[GrandPatron]

Hey guys I saw this thread and signed up to say that this guy would be the perfect snake. IMO he would be a better Naked Snake/Big Boss.

If you watch Lost you will see hes a badass and he acts exactly like Snake and his voice isnt too far off from his either.

 

[Cap'n Cook]

^ DAYAM that's a great choice!

THANK YOU!I always thought Josh Holloway would be the best choice for Snake,his looks,his voice.Perfect Snake IMO.Good that you are with me on this one

 

[hairlesswookiee]

Wow I've never watched Lost, but he does look like Snake in those pics. I wonder how his CQB is
