As a long-time fan of Metal Gear Solid and Disney animations, I couldn’t help but be thrilled when I heard that Jodi Benson, the voice behind Ariel, would be reprising her role as Eva in the upcoming remake of Metal Gear Solid 3. It’s been a secret hidden for years, but now it’s out in the open – and what a delightful surprise it is!


20 years down the line since Metal Gear Solid 3 hit the gaming scene, it turns out that the actress who brought Eva to life was none other than a Disney veteran, a fact that’s been making waves in the gaming community. This revelation has finally put an end to the speculation among MGS3 fans and the voice actor herself has shed light on why she’d kept her identity hidden all these years.

After so many years, it’s been announced that Metal Gear Solid 3 is being reimagined as Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater. This remake is giving the game a total makeover, but it will keep the original voiceovers from the classic version. So, series stalwart David Hayter will be back as Snake, and the enigmatic Suzetta Miñet will reprise her role as Eva.

In an authentic Konami promotional video for Metal Gear, it’s been unveiled that Suzetta Miñet is actually voiced by Jodi Benson. Jodi Benson, known for her extensive acting background, is most famously recognized as the voice of Ariel in Disney’s The Little Mermaid and all subsequent official animated adaptations, including Kingdom Hearts series.

Benson, who is well-known for her roles in family-friendly productions like Thumbelina and Barbie in Toy Story, adopted a pseudonym for this project to shield her career from the more mature themes. Voice director Kris Zimmerman Salter revealed it, as Eva’s character and the game’s rating were significantly adult-oriented compared to most of Benson’s past work. In the end, she chose Suzetta Miñet as a nod to a childhood pet named Suzette Monet for the alias.

It appears that the fanbase is overjoyed since their long-held speculation has been confirmed correct. In fact, one enthusiast was so certain of it that they took a copy of “Metal Gear Solid 3” to one of Benson’s public events, requesting her autograph. Benson herself confessed to her involvement with the fan in private conversations, asking them to maintain confidentiality at the time.
