Nothing official, but when famed Metal Gear Solid series creator Hideo Kojima was asked who he would want to take on the roll of Snake in the recently confirmed Metal Gear Solid movie, he mentions Hugh Jackman and Tom Hardy as very suitable picks.
However it isn’t anything official and his picks are mainly a “personal wishlist”, nothing more than that. We might even end up seeing Christian Bale as Snake, time will tell.
The Metal Gear Solid movie is currently being produced by Avi Arad but although Kojima isn’t directing the movie, he will be keeping a close eye over the project make sure it turns out “right”.
Details on the movie are still scarce at the moment, but expect some new info to sneak (literally) onto the Internet over the next few months.

Tom Hardy ? his english! i think hugh jackman is suitable for taking the role as solid snake ^^.
First off, it’s “He’s English” which is ironic on your part. And Tom has done American accents before in Lawless and Warrior. Second, Hugh Jackson is an Aussie, dude.
Nevertheless, I think Jackman is a better candidate out of the two we have. I mean… he already has the rugged look we all know from Wolverine. Although Kojima himself, stated that he would like it if they brought in someone fresh and have that actor start their acting career with Snake ( source: I was there when Kojima mentioned this at Eurogamer Developer Session). Metal Gear!
