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...

    • Started implementing weapons! Here's a little sneak peek! 👀 Animation was done inside of Unreal Engine using Control Rig! Really useful tool, I don't have to go back and forth between Blender and UE, you can basically make tweaks while the game is running.
    • Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
