    Oscar Isaac Will Play Solid Snake in “Metal Gear Solid” Movie

    Just how many times is BossLogic gonna be right with his spot-on casting, anyway?! (We say that with nothing but love, because we adore him and his art!) The newest confirmation that goes in line with a piece of BossLogic fan-casting artwork is the long-mentioned casting of Oscar Isaac as Solid Snake in a live-action film adaptation of video game title “Metal Gear Solid.”

    Deadline reported the news, saying that sources have confirmed to them this is a done deal for Isaac to play Solid Snake, and so does The Hollywood Reporter (so we’re more inclined to believe it now).

    Jordan Vogt-Roberts (“You’re The Worst,” “Kong: Skull Island“) is developing the film for Sony, which he will also direct, from a script by Derek Connolly (“Kong: Skull Island,” “Jurassic World,” “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker“). Avi Arad is producing, and Peter Kang is overseeing for Sony in a producer role.

    Originally released in 1987 for PlayStation, the Hideo Kojima game was published by Konami, and has continued to be a popular title.

    We’ll obviously let you know what else we hear about this and other projects.

    Enjoy this clip of Isaac casting himself in the role back in 2019 during a press junket. It’s adorable.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
