Jordan Vogt-Roberts says that the Metal Gear Solid film will be true to the vision of creator Hideo Kojima.
The Metal Gear series is… weird, and a direct adaptation would likely be difficult to pull off in a way that would appeal to people who aren’t already fans.
He feels that to do a video game property justice as a film adaptation, you need to embrace the things that make the story unique, rather than run away from them, which is something more than one video game movie has tried.
However, that dedication to vision won’t extend to interpreting a single game into a movie.
