At the Planet Hollywood Casino in Las Vegas, as part of the promotion for Sony’s “21″, Coming Soon caught up with Michael De Luca (writer of Judge Dredd, producer on Blade II, Zathura, Ghost Rider). In speaking with him, he revealed that now the writer’s strikes have ended, the development of the Metal Gear Solid movie has swung back into action.
De Luca also mentioned an upcoming meeting with Kurt Wimmer, director and writer of Equilibrium. A number of fans have previously expressed a desire to involve him in the game to movie adaptation - they may yet get their wish. His involvement isn’t yet confirmed and we can only speculate as to his potential role.

On a more bitter note, Mr Wimmer was also responsible for directing the awful Ultraviolet. Equilibrium was pretty good though.

I think the director for 3ooth would be great but on a side note it would be nice for De Lucca an hideo to do all the work so the story stays together an doesnt get screwed up like everyone else says(about ultraviolet)

i think Ridley Scott is the best choice.Only he can make the movie noble,exciting and epic.He can catch the very soul of Metal Gear Golid.
Wachowski Brothers is also a awesome choice . They can give the movie cool concept .
if the two above not directing,Christopher Nolan would be great. Bryan Singer and Len wiseman and Alfonso Cuaron are three proper choice.
According to the game series itself , HIDEO KOJIMA has a great movie taste , if he make effort to the production of the movie , he wouldn’t allow a stupid third-class(even second-class) director ruin the world he created.
