Metal Gear Movie in Development



Written By Movie knights

WOW it look like it finally happening with a metal gear solid movie and ya most of us know about 10 years ago this was mention that this film could be happening like the halo film at the time, but seem it faded out and just disappeared with no news of anything being done for this story but that is until now.

Ya i know game adapted to movies has quite worked out special with films like Super Mario bros, Mortal kombat Annihilation and many more other film that have use game to movie concept, but it seem that with a good director that can work despite what some people think assassin creed movie was actually pretty good.

With Sony heading this movie it seem like Metal gear solid is back on track to being made, whats great about this is the fact Sony has hired the best person for the job writer Derek Connolly who was the writer for the Jurassic world movie which was a success in box office breaking the world record in cinema history with 500 million in less than 3 days.


But he's not alone Sony has also hired Jorden Vogt-roberts to help him which most of us should know this isnt the first time these two have worked together, both these guys wrote the successful 2017 film Kong: skull island which did well in box office with 566.6 million in profit from a Budget only 185 million.

So it gonna be interesting to see what they can do with this Game adapted story into a film that most of us fans loved before Konami destroyed the series with their greed, not to mention treated the designer like crap which thankful has left the company to start a new company with Sony Hideo Kojima who was the heart and soul of that game.


Not much is known at this point as all we know is that the two writers are in development of this film and it's still in it writing stage at this point, so it will be some time before we start seeing casting for this film or even it see the light of day, but it does beg the question who is going to be the co-producer Konami or Hideo Kojima on this film since they were both involved with the game.

The last writer that was brought on years ago was Jay basu who wrote the film (Monsters: Dark Continent) But it seem he's story script wasn't up to scratch, so this is why they brought on Connolly to head the project but it seem no notes were made to indicate that there are rewrites, so it look as if Jay script was scrap and given Connolly to write a full concept story for this film. This is just speculation at this point.


Whether this film will be based on the first film well your guest is as good as mine, but at this point is seem like a good movie for Sony to get two good writers for this film,  let you know more when more news comes in on this film development.

What do you think? Do you think this film could be a success under these two writers or do you think this will fall pray to the game movie curse? let us know in the comments of your opinions
