Although the film adaptation of the hit video game franchise, Metal Gear Solid, is trapped in what looks like developmental hell, it seems that actress Amy Adams has been lined up to play Snake's redheaded, Desert Eagle-weilding love interest, Meryl Silverburgh, as this recent interview has revealed.

XTCGamer: Well, thanks for doing this interview, I know you?re a busy person. First question on every gamers mind is, have you ever played a video game?

Amy Adams: I have played a few video games, and I have watched my boyfriend play the first few hours of Final Fantasy 12, but honestly I can say that I don't follow games or know enough to consider myself a gamer.

XTCG: We have recently heard that you got asked to play Meryl in Metal Gear Solid. Will you do it?

AA: A lot has to happen for me to accept the role, first I have to relate and have a connection with the character. I have read half way through the script and Meryl developed into a real character that I felt for, she is someone who wants to be strong and will work for it no matter how hard it is. I mean the main character Snake at one point doubts her skills as a solider but she still wants to prove that she can handle herself in the battlefield. She never gives up. That?s the kind of role that I want, so if they call me in and ask me I will definitely say yes.

XTCG: Speaking of Snake, Can you tell us who they have asked to portray the series hero?

AA: From what I can tell you, they are still in early development for the movie. Some actors I know they have asked are Viggo Mortensen and Christian Bale, but that as far as I know and I can tell you, there really keeping secret about casting.

XTCG: Speaking of they, Can you tell us who is going to be director?

AA: Well, like I said there still in early development, but Kurt Wimmer is apparently asked to direct the movie, but nothing is official I mean they could change the director at any time, so nothing is definite right now.

XTCG: Last Question, if you do except the role of Meryl, Will you play the game to get a feel for the character?

AA: I?ll try I mean I am no good at games, but to get a better feel for my character and understand who she is, that?s where the script comes in. If the director wants me to then I will, but to play the game on my own I don?t think I will.

XTCG: Thanks Amy for the wonderful interview

AA: It?s been a pleasure.

She was also the main gal in Enchanted, which she was very cute in.

While I approach any Game-Film adaptation and its cast with fear for ruining the history of a great game, I think she could make quite a nice Meryl, and did I mention she's cute? :p

Who would people like to see as Snake? Christian Bale? he's in everything lately? or RDJ? tongue.gif

I dunno if I can see it working, we know he can puff off the harsh sounding voice that snake has, and I'm sure he could pull off the rough look too.

Yeah Bale could use the voice from Dark Knight :laugh:

Amy Adams would look great as Meryl, as for me as well she looks cute :p . I didn't even know she was in Night At The Museum 2 until Rappy told me, she looked so different :blink: .

Christian Bale could definitely pull it off with the Batman voice :p .

That could work somewhat, Kiefer Sutherland can play the young snake and his dad, Donald can play him when he is old, lol.

I don't know, he's already saving the President one too many times :p !

They should let David Hayter do it, okay he may not be a perfect match but with some makeup and a hairstyler it could be close - Then the voice would also be spot on.

( Talking young snake here ... )

They should let Hayter do Snake's voice no matter what actor will be playing him. I wouldn't be able to stand it if it's some non-Snake voice...
Oh I agree, Solid Snakes voice without David Hayter's voice is pointless. But dubbing his voice over another actors voice would just look and feel stupid :laugh:
The Germans have been doing it for years. I take if we kidnap a couple of those they can teach us.

Lol- nah, Hayter would be awesome, but he'd need to get more buff + he'd have THE voice... but I don't think he will do it sadly :( so my next favorites would be Sean Bean, because of his looks... rugged and all...

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
