So, about that Metal Gear Solid movie. Apart from director Jordan Vogt-Roberts having a cameo in Kojima’s Death Stranding, that’s about as much MGS-related news as we’ve gotten. That is, until Vogt-Roberts dropped a little update on Twitter. Well, little might be a stretch. After a long series of tweets, Vogt-Roberts revealed that a new draft of the film’s script was just finalized and turned in recently.
BONUS IF YOU MADE IT TO THE END: I’m sorry can’t update you on the MGS film more regularly… but:
-We just turned in a new draft. It’s full Kojima-quirk and full Military surrealism. I won’t say more 🤫
-I’m hoping to meet a specific actor very soon 🙂
-Let’s make this movie! pic.twitter.com/0Qj5XGTbkQ— Jordan Vogt-Roberts (@VogtRoberts) December 3, 2019
Vogt-Roberts went on to also say that he will be meeting with an actor for the film “very soon.” The last we heard about any actors involved in the film, Oscar Isaac had expressed his interest in the film. Whether he’s the one to don the sneaking suit remains to be seen. For now, there’s still no release date for the film.
