In 1997, I re-read
#WATCHMEN
, the graphic novel, on the set of a little indie movie I was making.
When I got to this scene in the book, I said, "I have to make this into a movie somehow."
That's how all of this began.
Just to clear things up, the Snake cameo video that we showed during Tekken finals was our idea of a little joke. It was not intended to imply a character reveal, and was done on our own, without consulting Bandai Namco. Sorry for any confusion!
This is what actors (& models & bodybuilders) do. If you see them with razor cut abs, they have been on a low carb, water-reducing diet to get there. You cannot retain that and be healthy.
When we shot WOLVES, Jason asked me, "Do I have to have abs n' shit for this?"
I said no.
Here's the story:
I did a commercial for Ford as a VO Actor, and the Producers were big Snake fans.
So they said, "Hey, if we got permission from Konami to use Snake in an ad, would you do it?"
"Sure." I said, certain it would never happen.
Then it did. Then I was stuck.
Everyone,
The world does not need to be this awful.
No one benefits from all this hatred. Not even the deluded fools at the top.
Please lighten up and be kinder to each other.
Particularly to those who can least defend themselves.
Thanking you in advance,
David
Goodbye Mum.
She was the kindest, wisest, most generous soul I ever knew. No one who knew her could help but love and be charmed by her beauty and grace.
And she created the man I am today.
May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

This happened because the director said one day, “Why couldn’t Xavier just make Magneto go to sleep or something?”
No one had an answer.
So we decided it was the helmet.

I still lie awake at night thinking about how Magneto’s helmet blocking telepathy just straight up wasn’t a thing at all until the movies. Like how the fuck is that real what
Your characters need:
A desire.
The drive to achieve it.
Unique traits.
Compelling faults.
Unresolved issues.
Room for growth.
A past.
A secret.
Resolution.

After 2 weeks of multiple health screens and asking everyone to quarantine, I surprised my closest inner circle with a trip to a private island where we could pretend things were normal just for a brief moment in time.
I honestly don’t know of the rumors are true. But if they are, let the studio know you’d like me back as Snake. 🐍
I’m always down to return to Shadow Moses.

Thank you all for the birthday wishes. You are the finest one hundred and eighty-eight thousand people I’ve ever known.
The scene from my house right now:
I had lunch with Carl Weathers just a few months ago. Just he and I. We talked about his amazing career, his philosophy of the business and other things.
Such a kind, warm, talented man.
We were lucky to have known him.
Hey, everyone! I made a new friend over the weekend and he has a special announcement to make, just for you!
Thank you

If I should ever die…
Please know that I’ve lived an amazing life.
I chased every dream. Experienced great successes, weathered painful failures, and every single pursuit lead to adventure.
And I wish you all the same.

To all my beloved Tweeps,
I am sticking it out on Twitter.
It's been an amazing few years getting to know you all, and I've made a lot of friends and personal contacts here.
If it becomes an overwhelmingly unlivable, racist crap-hole I may reassess.
But for now... we fight.
