The Metal Gear Solid movie won't be happening, at least in the foreseeable future, according to producer Michael De Luca.
He told Collider: "I don't think it's going to move forward because I got the sense that there may not be enough of a coordinated will at this point on the side of certain parties to see a movie get made."
He explained that Konami is concerned about a duff movie hurting the image of the game series. "The franchise being as big as it is kind of helps the movie. I'm not sure the movie does the same thing for the game."
De Luca added: "The videogame companies are very protective of their property and there are certain things a studio requires freedom-wise to market and distribute a movie effectively in a global marketplace and sometimes getting those two things to match up is really hard -- it was just kind of impossible to get the agendas to match up."
So that seems to be that for a MGS film for the time-being, but if Prince of Persia or another game adaptation makes money this year, then perhaps Konami might have a change of heart.

someone brought it up, but there was never any ideas for it. i think this would have worked best as an animated movie. kinda like how all the clips are in the game. although the games area really long, im not sure how they would fit all that into 1-2 hours.

Yeah but a live action movie would be grand...
Let's cast some actors lol....
Solid Snake : Kurt Russell (Why not?) Kojima said he based the character on Snake Plissken from Escape From New York...

Haytors voice = Plissken = Russell (Okay, Maybe Old Snake will be suffice for him)

I think it was going to be unrelated to the events in the games. Anyway it would probably have sucked, like the majority of movie adaptations of videogames...
