EVO,
You also failed to consult me, or Konami. Please do not use my voice to promote other games. Ever.

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.

Yo @DavidBHayter please tell me it’s you in Smash
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.

Remember when Solid Snake / @DavidBHayter decided he wanted to drive a @Ford Focus SE? Good times.

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
I admit… I was thinking that.

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.

Oh,

Your characters need:
A desire.
The drive to achieve it.
Unique traits.
Compelling faults.
Unresolved issues.
Room for growth.
A past.
A secret.
Resolution.
17 years ago, they asked me to make Wolverine American. I refused.

also there are VERY few instances I will consent to until all our rights are protected.
Wishing a very stealthy Christmas, a Foxdie-free holiday and a Solid New Year to you and yours.
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.

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.
