It's assumed that if a film were to be made based on the franchise, it would have to be an adaptation of Metal Gear Solid, considering that it served as a launching point for the new direction of the series and was a lot of fans' first entry into the franchise. The first 3D game in the series, Metal Gear Solid, is actually the third game in the series to be released, yet the 7th game to take place chronologically in the series' deeply-convoluted timeline. Naked Snake as he becomes one of the most ruthless mercenaries the world has ever seen, and one in the future that follows the efforts of Solid Snake (a legendary spy who's eventually revealed as a clone of Big Boss) as he attempts to cull the massive power struggle and nuclear cold war left in the wake of Naked Snake's rise to power. The Metal Gear series is split into two timelines: one in the past that details the rise of Big Boss a.k.a.
Dozens of big-name directors were reportedly attached to the project at one point or another (including Quentin Tarantino, Paul Thomas Anderson, and shockingly enough, Uwe Boll), but in 2014, director Jordan-Vogt Roberts became linked to the project.
Rumors and pitches have stretched as far back as 2006 regarding an adaptation of Hideo Kojima's legendary virtual pastiche of Western espionage films, but nothing tangible and concrete until the Metal Gear 25th Anniversary, in August of 2012, when producers Avi and Ari Arad announced that Colombia Pictures would be producing a Metal Gear Solid film that would be distributed by Sony Pictures. While the Metal Gear Solidfilm may appear dead in the water, that hasn't stopped director Jordan Vogt-Roberts from sharing a wealth of information about it via concept art.
