Chatty Christian Bale isn't doing an MGS film

You might have seen rumours of Christian Bale doing a Metal Gear Solid film. Someone spoke to him about it: he isn't.

From an MTV interview:

MTV: Metal Gear Solid, is this something you've ever talked about doing as a film?

Bale: No.

MTV: Are you a video game fan?

Bale: Yeah.

MTV: What do you play?

Bale: That. Metal Gear Solid.

MTV: You play it?

Bale: Yeah.

MTV: How many hours does that suck out of you on a weekly basis?

Bale: You know what, no, I've kinda devoted my time to more constructive things of late. You know?

Such a happy chap. Thanks, Kotaku.
