Metal Gear Solid Movie

I like Hugh Jackman as Snake, but here is another suggestion. Why not have David Hayter play Solid Snake, after all he is an actor and he does the voice of Snake in all the Metal Gear Solid games. It would be awsome to have the actual voice talent of Snake to actually be Snake in the movies.

Here's a pic of David Hayter, he could be made to look like Snake if he grew a mulllet.

Awesome idea, +rep.

As much as I hate these "who should play who in a movie" threads (I've been keeping a close eye on Silent Hill movie buzz, and it seems like there's a new topic like this every week), I like Snake's idea of having David Hayter star in the movie...

That is if he could physically play the role of Solid Snake... And I'm not just talking about having a mullet...

Does Snake even really have a mullet? People say he does but I was always under the impression that he just had long hair which was being held back by his bandana, thus pushing it all to the back and making it LOOK like a mullet...

Yeah he has a mullet.... When he is just Jack in MGS3, and no bandanna... it's LIKE a mullet but not an obvious mullet.

In any case, I agree with you. David Hayter may play his voice and may need a mullet like hair style, but he would also need to physically fill the shoes of Snake.

We've seen Hugh Jackman as Wolverine... 'nuff said.

Well, Wolverine isn't Snake... Wolverine is more about brute power, Snake about stealth and agility. Those are different kind of moves....

Wolverine is about Agility, and Stealth, because he has natural instincts of the feline. The only brute power he has are the adamantium claws. And his attitude.

But notice he is always the one sniffing out the guards and their positions. When they were attacking the mansion in X2, Wolverine took out half the guards in stealth.

David Hayter would need strength, agility, and stealth.
Hugh Jackman has strength, agility, and it's always easy to be stealthy in a movie where the guards can ACT like they don't know he's there, LOL.

But the question at hand isn't about Hugh Jackman... its if Hayter can do all those hanging off of ledges for long periods, and agility to do rolls and CQB with The Boss...

speaking of which... anyone think of a tough-chick to play The Boss?

Speaking of hanging of ledges and rolling, have you ever heard of 'stunt doubles' and 'CGI'?

Not that I like those (I love to know that they do their own stunts [like Minority Report and The Matrix]), but anything is possible.
