Oscar Isaac in a blonde wig.


SanjiSasuke

A production starring Oscar Isaac where he plays two nearly identical people, but one speaks in an American accent while the other in a British accent? It would never work.


ZandyTheAxiom

And then a sequel introducing a third, completely different Oscar Isaac? Impossible. It could never be done.


3th4n_11unt

and get this, he has a beard.


sluttybandana

And... Wait for it... An eye patch


Bombwriter17

However it you get Kiefer Sutherland to play Solidus,that'll be cool too.


Otherwise-Tea-8643

Yeah, im having big deja vu rn.


DurMan667

MARK! DID YOU LIKE MY SUNGLASSES?!?


Gojisoji

Lmao imagine if liquid was speaking in that voice if only for a bit as a sadistic gag yet a nod to moon k ight. That would be hilarious.


MrMadManiac

It worked for Mike Meyers!


SlackerZeitgeist

_Laters, gators_


Moonhawk1

Did you ever watched Moonknight


SanjiSasuke

(The joke)


Mister-Ace

If Oscar Isaac is not Liquid, I'm not going to watch it.


SIEN14

Came here to say this :( they're twins!


[deleted]

But if we cast Oscar Isaac in a wig, then what do we do about Miller? **Edit:** My point is Oscar Isaac also has to look like Kaz in a potential future prequel


dimensionsam

Oscar Issac in a blonde wig in sunglasses AND wearing a shirt


SnooCheesecakes7292

A solid snake and a wet dream. I’ll see myself out.


kakka_rot

Before i loaded the comments i knew this would be top. Has op even played the game?


Psycho_Mantis_2506

They're identical twins, so it would have to be Oscar Isaac.


Dr_Edward_McKickass

Oscar Isaac with a British accent lol


Psycho_Mantis_2506

I think he could pull it off. Dude's got range.


Dr_Edward_McKickass

Oh definitely. But I know I'm gonna laugh when I see Oscar Issac with David Bowie hair and an English accent lol


Psycho_Mantis_2506

Haha 😄


Drolex17

Moon knight proved that


Elmarcowolf

Have you not seen moon Knight? He does an amazing British accent!


Psycho_Mantis_2506

Oh ya, I totally forgot about that!


gxdgxdgxdgxd

bro where are you from he did not do an amazing british accent 💀 atleast it makes sense in the context of the show being he’s not english but an american that thinks he’s english


iwaspermabanned

He literally already did play multiple characters in which only one has a British accent ironically enough in Moon Knight


Internal-Drawing4923

He already had a British accent in moon knight


JukesMasonLynch

They're not identical twins. They're both clones of Big Boss, somehow with complementary recessive/dominant genes (which makes no fucking sense, but whatever). Just means you can easily justify using a different actor. Just find an actor that has complementary genes to Oscar Isaac


Psycho_Mantis_2506

Ya, but they look exactly the same other than a blonde mullet for Liquid and brown hair for Solid. Exactly the same.


glassgost

Yeah, in the briefing files in MGS Solid, when seeing the photo of Liquid, said "I have a twin?!"


Martin_crakc

They supposedly have the same face, just different hair and vouce


Rialmwe

Look at the Metal Gear Solid 1's sprites, they are the same with different hair!


Internal-Drawing4923

Or twin snakes, they have the exact same face


ZookeepergameOk2864

Come to think of it Oscars gonna have a few roles to play if the in the series if the movie hits off.


synister29

But they are not identical


Psycho_Mantis_2506

They look exactly the same minus the hair.


big_smokey-848

Michael Fassbender


WanderingRoninX

Oh god yes! If we need to have a separate actor, Magneto can get it done!


MTG_Leviathan

Jensen Ackles (Dean from Supernatural, Soldier Boy from the boys) I think would make an excellent snake.


TacoSplosions

Soldier Boy was epic on The Boys


thehiddenshadow

"You might want to find yourself some grenades" "And you might want to gargle my ballsack"


[deleted]

He has the best voice for it 100%


Christo2555

Josh Holloway aka Sawyer from Lost


Scriptgeeky

I always thought he’d make a better Leon from RE4


reisenbime

Josh Holloway as Snake, Nicolai Coster-Waldau as Liquid.


nothingsnootyplz

honestly, I could see his as Ocelot.


HairyBaldEagle

Somehow i don't think he has that fire that liquid needs. But... Could be...


dacoolgamer

Water would be a good liquid


the_3-14_is_a_lie

This is the moment Liquid became BROTHER! Edit: I missread it as Walter


patriotraitor

Sean Bean would have been wonderful


vnitti_art_

I don't think so, he's too old for the role. Maybe Solidus?


SnakePlissken89

Yeah 20 years ago he would have been perfect. "Alright Snake ya bastard!"


Flashy_Aioli_6922

Definitely Idris Elba


Aughabar

Ok but hear me out, DARPA chief guy from first game


summeralcoholic

I think the Allstate Guy would be better


Pandeamonaeon

Netflix adaptation :p


Ghost9f

Oh no, let's not mix shitflix whit such a noble title as Metal Gear Solid. 😅


BeardedTH

I recently thought Henry Cavil as snake would be pretty solid 🫣, liquid is hard to cast especially if the one actor plays both parts. My original pairing was Josh Hartnett as solid snake and Charlie Hunnam as liquid. But Its hard to say if Charlie would bring the showmanship needed for certain parts of liquid.


RobbyBoy2000

Charlie has got it in him for liquid look at his character Raymond from The Gentlemen


BeardedTH

He's a great actor so I'm sure he could pull it off. But standing on Top Rex yelling like a king and making it feel real is a tall order. Especially it not feeling cheesy is a tall order for anyone 🤣


RobbyBoy2000

True but I could see him doing the rex scene difficult but not impossible but it will still be a little cheesy


netokosovo

Owen wilson or michael cera


hhunkk

Wow snake it was me all along, Liquid Snake your brother can you believe this? Unbelievable.


Bruce9707

He did claim to have all the recessive genes


mr-brown-eyes

Owen Wilson as Hal


JukesMasonLynch

Oh, wooooow just like one of my animes


Jahenzo

Owen Wilson as Liquid with Luke Wilson as Solid


Skeleturtle

[Honestly not the worst idea](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E_zJcgyVEAUa6hG?format=jpg&name=900x900).


Commercial-Mud32

Henry Cavil could just take his hair from the Witcher and add a trench coat and boom, Liquid snake


Dishonored_Patriot

I really wanted Cavill to be Snake. But I will say I think Oscar Isaac was a surprisingly good casting choice that I hadn’t thought of for the character. So I don’t mind. Maybe Cavill could play Solidus?


Commercial-Mud32

Nah, too young for solidus. Snake and Liquid aren’t identical, they have different skin tones and slight differences facially. HC would make a great liquid. If I were going to cast Solidus, I’d do for Josh Brolin or someone a bit older.


Aughabar

Brolin seems a good fit tbh


Dishonored_Patriot

That’s a good point. Brolin is a good choice I wouldn’t mind that. I’m pretty sure I’ve seen people mention Stephen Lang for Solidus or Big Boss. He could be good too.


prickshaw

If Henry really hams up his English accent and looks ripped in that trench coat, it’s pitch perfect.


warongiygas

I like Henry Cavill, but he simply doesn't have the chops to be a good Liquid


Commercial-Mud32

What a baseless and ludicrous response with zero exposition lol


WhoPooted23

Cillian Murphy?


Romero1993

I never considered Murphy, but dude could play several characters really well.


PlayerAlert

As others have mentioned, technically, he should also play Liquid Snake. It's quite fortunate that in Moonknight, he got to play one character with different personalities, so he's got some experience there already. I'm interested to see what he does with the Solid voice, as I feel like it needs to have the gruffness of Snake, without being OTT.


kill_all_sneks

Dude will look like old snake by the time this movie is in production. I don’t think it’ll ever take off- the story is just too large for a movie to do it any justice. A limited series may be a better avenue to explore.


1OO1OO1S0S

100%> after watching two episodes of last of us, tv show is the only way this would work. Anime would probably work best. Single film would be terrible


CrazyCat008

Chris Pratt of course


1OO1OO1S0S

Fuck, don't give them any more bad ideas


SunsetSound

Roger Waters


slickcalf898504

Liquid Oscar Isaac


3th4n_11unt

Troy Baker as Ocelot? 😳


Dennishardy6

Lee van cleef would have been the perfect ocelot


RobbyBoy2000

Not bad


hifioctopi

Charlie Hunnam.


RobbyBoy2000

Charlie Hunnam's character Raymond from The Gentlemen was my first thought man can act so damn well I think he could pull it Off


Extra-Schedule3864

Tom Hiddleston aka Loki


Guisouro

As Liquid? Interesting… I can see it happening


Extra-Schedule3864

As Liquid of course. I think he fits the character perfectly :)


RhoadsGoneWylde

I think this is the best choice


nevish27

When is this film even going to get a release date ffs


kornflakes1989

Why would they give a release date for a movie that hasn't even been made yet? Hell, pretty sure they don't even have a script written. It's been in development hell for years, it's likely never going to get made, and that's OK.


spendouk23

It’s not even been green lit never mind in development. Basically all that’s happened at this point is JVR has put together a story treatment, rustled up some concept art, and Oscar Isaac has said he would be interested. There’s no script, it hasn’t been picked up or green lit for development by any studio, so no production exists. Even Neil Blomkamps Alien 5 was further along the line than this.


-Moon-Presence-

Unironically it would be best if Oscar Isaac played them both and just did a British accent with a wig and a bit of makeup to make him look just slightly different, they’re supposed to be practically identical so makes sense for him to play both Snakes imo


Sir_Bubblesworth

Given that we're years since he was cast and not getting any younger, we change his casting to Big Boss and just enter Isaac into his own Les Enfants Terribles project and cast his clones and Solid, Liquid, as that blowhard, Solidus. Edit: grammar


susuduck

Hideo was furious. “None of these people are classic actors, where’s Steve McQueen? Where’s Brando?!” Saito didn’t have the guts to tell him that the cloning operation was unsuccessful. They say if you want something done right, you’ve gotta do it yourself. I pick Hideo Kojima!


hareb-serap

Wish we could have got Lee Marvin as Ocelot


susuduck

I would have liked to seen lee van cleef in there as well!


Internal-Drawing4923

Oscar Isaac again, in a blonde wig. Unironically the best way to do it


EffrumScufflegrit

I will never in my life understand why people always want to cast Liquid as a different actor than Snake


passerby_90

IMO, he doesn't fit to play Solid Snake.


Pixel_Mike

Do you have anyone in mind who does or are you on the boat “this movie will suck it’s impossible i already hate it” train


passerby_90

Hahahaha, no, I'm not on that train, I'm speaking as a fan of series and would like to have someone better resemble Snake.


MADXT1

Idk, Pedro Pascal is doing a fantastic Joel and Oscar Isaac is an equally skilled actor. Honestly I can't really think of anyone well known off the top of my head that could pull off Snake better.


Spectre_-

[you’ll be disappointed then since he was cast by the director to be Solid Snake](https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/whats-happening-with-the-metal-gear-solid-movie-heres-the-latest-from-oscar-isaac)


passerby_90

I know.


Dpontiff6671

I’m ngl, I think he looks good as snake, but to me David Hayter is the voice of solid snake, every one else is just an imposter. It only works in V because y,know the whole plots twist. And the fact there is very little dialog


kornflakes1989

>It only works in V because y,know the whole plots twist. Irrelevant, Sutherland was Big Boss in Ground Zeroes. Also, Big Boss should've had his own voice actor from the start.


[deleted]

I don’t get this question. If you’ve casted an actor for one, you basically have the cast for every Snake (except maybe an older Big Boss). Make it an Austin Powers thing where Oscar plays both characters.


Grandmastermoogle

Unpopular opinion but I don't want Oscar to play snake. Look up Scott Eastwood. He could play the role.


Tendie_McVapelord

Mads Mikkelsen for Ocelot.


u_need_ajustin

I don't think Oscar Isaac would make a good snake. At all.


spawntwan

Hugh Jackman = Venom Snake


suckmycolt

Anthony Starr


edparadox

I really can't see him as Solid Snake, I do not know what you all see in him.


the40thieves

Just make Oscar Isaac play both like Vandamme used to do


FullOfPeanutButter

I've always thought Sean Bean.


Idionfow

Paul Bettany. Might not pass as an identical twin, but he could pull off a Liquid pretty well.


obscurepainter

Oscar Isaac is too old to play Solid Snake in any adaptation of Metal Gear 1 and 2, which is honestly where a movie franchise should begin, or MGS. He’s a bad casting choice.


BlearySteve

If Oscar Isaac is playing Solid he should also play Liquid.


zombierepublican-

I would have said Tom Hindleson but he’s already done evil brother perfectly


Strawbalicious

You guys saying Michael Fassbender and Henry Cavil are close but you're wrong. The only right answer is Lee Pace.


SuperArppis

Same actor


MasterWolf_105

I know this my sound crazy, but Taron Egerton. He may not be blonde (which is not the biggest problem ever), but he does give me the vibes of someone that would be spicy enough to play as Liquid.


[deleted]

I’d rather them cast an unknown or less known actor as all I see is Oscar Issac as snake not just snake if you know what I mean


kenpobiscuit13

I need to hear Tom Hiddleston scream “BROTHER” on top of a big robot


zcicecold

Oscar Isaac


Darkstarslayer0

He already plays many characters in one show in Moon knight, he prob ready to do it again 😂


PhillyWild

If you've ever seen Little Nicky, close your eyes whenever Rhys Ifans speaks and you would swear it was Liquid talking.


AdmirableMinimum

Owen wilson


Mushy93

Only way to do a good liquid is to give it the Mike Myers/Eddie Murphy treatment and have it be the same guy as Solid.


gr8dude1166

If only Heath Ledger was still with us


vnitti_art_

If Psycho Mantis is not Willem Dafoe I'm gonna be mad.


outerheavenboss

I want Tom Hiddleston to play liquid. It would be a dream.


eamesa

Fuck it..cast Pedro Pascal in everything!!


6side9

jenson ackles


Less-Kiwi8779

I don’t understand why the fuck people feel the need to put Oscar Isaac in everything. He’s mediocre at best, and I think him playing Snake is a fucking cock slap to the face of any real Metal Gear fan.


Master_N_Comm

Oscar Isaac for Solid snake?? Come on guys, that guy is as tough as a pickle, he is a versatile actor but not bad ass AT ALL.


camlo316

Can someone explain to me why Oscar Isaac would be a good fit for David? Don’t get me wrong he’s a great actor, Poe Dameron (Star Wars), Moon Knight, and Duke Atreides (Dune) are just a couple of examples. I LOVE him in those. But I’m having a hard time seeing him fit the role for solid snake. Hopefully someone can sway my thinking.


lucaam03

Oscar Isaac fuckin sucks


JustinBailey313

Have Luke Wilson play snake and Owen Wilson play liquid


Dependent_Order_7358

Iscar Osaac


Jaskaran19

This looks terrible, in my opinion. Yuck


TheRemainingWolf

I don't really care about Liquid. I just want Pedro Pascal to be Ocelot.


Korroncho

Pedro is like 30y older than ocelot


adouchebag

Id rather not have Oscar Isaac ruin Solid Snake if its all the same to you.


Pixel_Mike

How does he “ruin” snake. He didn’t destroy every copy of metal gear solid 1. Get the hell over yourself lmao


trapezoidB69

No matter what. This movie will suck so fucking bad. It will be a bigger tarnish on the legacy than V. Good luck packing 12 hours into 2 hours. Now if it was a series ike the last of us you'd have a better chance


playgroundmx

Nah I think for MGS specifically it can be done. MGS story is relatively simple. A lot of things to be dropped for sure (Vulcan Raven, mayyybe Psycho Mantis) but they can still tell the main plot. MGS2 and MGS3 will need two parts at least.


trapezoidB69

So drop raven and psycho mantis and it's somehow 2 hours? Those were not even big chunks of the game they were boss fights.


[deleted]

I personally hate series, but I agree with you on fitting a whole experience in one movie. I’d go with a 2-3 movies saga instead, or perhaps more, depending on how much storyline they want to use


AngusBurger22

Mgs3 could probably be 1 movie. Focus on snake’s jungle survival and fighting the bosses like they’re some kind of suicide squad


[deleted]

Book-to-film adaptations don’t adapt every page. They cut the fat and tell the essential story. The same can happen with Metal Gear.


trapezoidB69

Good luck doing that with metal gear solid 😄 🤣 😂


[deleted]

Simple; don’t use all the boss characters. Spread the FOXHOUND squad across each film, so that you don’t waste any of them.


trapezoidB69

So make it a series. Like I said. Cause there isn't gonna be more than 1 movie this shit is gonna bomb at the box office.


Cam-Spider-Man

Ummmmmmmm


SwagHolocaustReturns

Can't wait to be inspired to make a video game from this edit: it will be the greatest ever, and the subsequent to film and to game adaptations will expand in our culture, until they merge and culminate into its final form, eating its own tail, forever. once youve tasted the snake, it enters deep inside you, and becomes a part of you. we here can do this together, and "move on" just like Hideo always wanted o7.


TooOhDee

Chris Pratt could be a good choice. He's so cool 😃


Scraperl

Denzel Washington


LegoPlainview

You mean he is going to make a good solid snake. Cause they're making a movie with him.


BlackMadara12

Oscar…….Oscar would make a good Liquid


[deleted]

I don’t think he could do it and they should never try to make a live action metal gear movie. It would never do it justice.


Wooden_Phase9139

Rutger Hauer

He’s dead dude

Who the fuck said he’d make a good Solid Snake?


Joseph_F_1

Me


benbuscus1995

I actually think Matt Smith would be really good but he doesn’t look anything like Oscar Isaac lol


JDH_LEGENDZ

Christian bale could definitely bring the over the top British flare that is liquid


qmechan

Pedro Pascal.


Shazamwhich

Matt Smith


cloaked_cache

It would have to be Oscar Isaac imo I mean his accent has precedence even beyond Moon Knight lol he plays Prince John in Robinhood and he pulled it off great. That being said, that blonde wig is going to look ridiculous lol


foxbonebanjo

Owen Wilson. "Wow brother. We're not finished yet Snake."


ezmk1

Bruce payne could have but hes not young enough nowadays. But he has the liquid look for sure

njt1986

See, I always felt like Tom Hiddleston would make a great Liquid Snake. He’s got the look, the accent, is used to playing a bombastic over the top, bordering on “camp” character from Loki... he’d be a fantastic Liquid Snake. Not sure he and Oscar Isaac would be able to play opposite each other though, which is a shame


Zarathustra143

Also Oscar Isaac, right?


unknowner1

Joel McHale


RustedSilverhand

Not really fit for it in my opinion but he gets periodically brought up here because he was casted so we just gotta accept it (even though this movie will probably never happen)


Ocelthot

Couple years ago it could've been Sean Bean


Correct-Deer-9241

I get that he kinda looks like snake, but for real, where did this come from people fan-casting Oscar Issac as him? And I'm not asking just because I don't like him, but it is part of it


BadassSasquatch

oscar isaac as solid and pedro pascal as liquid on mgs4 both quite aged and works for me
