13 Unlikely Movies That Might Exist 10 Years From Now

4. Metal Gear Solid

Why It's Unlikely: It's tough to believe a Metal Gear Solid movie will ever actually happen for one major reason: the games are basically movies themselves. Plus, translating an extremely weird 15-20 hour game into a film is a thankless task that will no doubt disappoint a huge section of the fanbase either way (no matter how good it is).

Why It Might Happen: All that said, Jordan Vogt-Roberts (Kong: Skull Island) has already been selected to direct, and with Hideo Kojima now being divorced from the video game franchise, it's possible the movie may press ahead a little easier, for better or worse.

Plus, the game franchise is so ridiculously successful that it'd be pretty shocking if a forthright effort wasn't made to get the film made, even if it ends up sucking.
