A Metal Gear Solid movie has been officially announced by series creator Hideo Kojima.
Announced at a Metal Gear anniversary event in Tokyo, the film will be released through Columbia Pictures and produced by Avi Arad, reports Famitsu
Arad, who has previously worked on blockbusters such as X-Men, The Amazing Spider-Man, The Incredible Hulk, and Iron Man, described Metal Gear as a "phenomenon".
Calling video games the "comic books of today", Arad promised to stay faithful to the themes of the Metal Gear franchise.
A Metal Gear movie tie-in has been planned for a number of years.
