Oscar Isaac has been busy promoting his upcoming Disney+ series Moon Knight, but that didn’t stop IGN from asking him for an update on the long-awaited cinematic adaptation of the popular gaming series Metal Gear Solid. He was cast back in December but we haven’t heard anything since and luckily the actor offered a small update on the project.
We’re searching, we’re searching like Solid Snake. We’re climbing through air ducts, we’re looking for the story.

It looks like the film is still in its early stages, as director Jordan Vogt-Roberts is getting the script together. He has hinted that the series’ creator Hideo Kojima has also been involved in some capacity, but it’s unclear if he’ll also have a say in the film’s overalls story and script. We also don’t know if they will directly adapt Snake’s infiltration of Shadow Moses, or take a more unique approach to make the adaptation stand out from the original. Still, it’s good to hear that they are still actively working on the project and it seems Isaac is having fun with some callbacks to the game.
