# Jodi Benson Finally Confirmed as EVA in *Metal Gear Solid 3* Almost 20 years from the original release of *Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater*, Konami has *finally* [confirmed](https://youtube.com/watch?v=iDIWFh7nYa4&t=45) the voice actress behind the iconic character EVA. Jodi Benson. The Little Mermaid herself. Fans have speculated this for ages, but now it is fact. Amazing. The story itself behind the hidden identity is interesting, wanting to not directly affiliate her more child-focused roles with that of a sultry spy from a rated M espionage thriller.
