Metal Gear Solid movie director talks Cyborg Ninja, Sniper Wolf, fourth wall moments, and more

The Metal Gear Solid movie will feature a character near and dear to director Jordan Vogt-Roberts' heart, at least if he has anything to say about it. While promoting his new movie 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kong: Skull Island, Vogt-Roberts told that "there's no world" in which he directs a Metal Gear Solid movi🎉e that doesn't ha♚ve Gray Fox, AKA the Cyborg Ninja.
"When we were sitting down to think about the script at a certain point it was like, 'Is Cyborg Ninja in this movie or not?' And the part of me that was a little kid was like, 'There's no world in which I'm ever go🧸ing to make a Metal Gear movie that Cyborg Ninja is not going to be in.' It's really easy to be like, 'It's a good character to save for the second one,' but no, no, no."
Vogt-Roberts also called himself꧑ "a big fan" of Sniper Wolf, so the beautiful-but-deadly sharpshooter may also make an appearanc🍨e.
Other fan-favorite moments from the PlayStation⭕ game may not make it to film, however. Many players to this day rememb♛er the shock they felt at being addressed directly by Psycho Mantis as he read the contents of an inserted memory card. But fourth wall shenanigans aren't high on Vogt-Roberts' priorities.
"To me, the fourth wall breaking is a little less important than the walking philosophies and ideologies those characters represent, and getting that right and the tone right and things like that," Vogt-Roberts said. "If breaking the fo🌼urth wall makes sense, ൲I'm all for it, [but] I'm more interested in the 'Kojima conversations' about whatever song came out then or whatever - it's that stuff that it just absolutely needs."
And what does Koji๊ma himself think of all this? Well, he's𓆉 a fan of Kong: Skull Island, at least.
I knew @VogtRoberts was a genius in his indies days but ppl will see it in @kongskullisland. Enjoy Kaiju film of Kong's island,not as𝓰 reboot pic.twitter.com/H1iRfRPFP3
I don't know about you, but that's all the endorsement I needed to see Kong this weekend a൩nd be hyped for development of the MGS movie to continue.
