? or is this a hoax

Kane Knight 09-23-2007 06:36 PM

There was just a GI Joe thread, but I thought they said they hadn't even started it yet, so...

Wait...2006? Are you asking if one's coming out, or one was released?

The Naitch 09-23-2007 06:45 PM

I don't know anymore

Live-action film

Paramount has commissioned the development of a live-action G.I. Joe film following the success of the 2007 Transformers feature film. The film is being slated for a 2009 release date with Stephen Sommers as the director[2][3] and Stuart Beattie as the scriptwriter.[4] The film will feature an international task force based in New York[5] (previously Brussels)[6] called G.I.J.O.E, (a backronym for Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity), instead of the US-centric team featured in all previous incarnations, in order to internationally market the film.[2][6] The film will feature Destro and the Baroness as the main villains, the Dreadnoks as mercenaries (and Cobra's hired muscle), and Cobra Commander in a "puppet master" role. Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow's rivalry will be one of the film's main plot points.[5]

Sienna Miller has reportedly signed on to play the Baroness,[7] with Ray Park playing Snake-Eyes.[8]

hott shit

Scarlett.

Awwww. I was hoping they would go the Lady J route.

Kalyx triaD 12-20-2007 01:11 AM

I'm praying for Zartan.

Fignuts 12-20-2007 02:33 AM

Thank fucking god they took it out of brussels. Would have been completely ridiculous otherwise.

ClockShot 12-20-2007 08:28 AM

Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Said Taghmaoui have been confirmed as well.

God. Ecko would make a good Roadblock.

Kane Knight 12-22-2007 11:40 PM

Betting this'll be crap, really hoping I'm wrong. Ray Park as Snake Eyes will be badass.

Three more join the cast for 'G.I. Joe'
Posted December 20, 2007 at 11:27 AM

By Tim Briscoe

Can you tell I'm excited about next year's G.I. Joe movie? I posted my casting picks and, whether you wanted it or not, I have informed you on the selections of Sienna Miller and Ray Park for the movie. Needless to say, I'm reliving my childhood right now.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, three more have signed on for the toy-turned-action flick. Rachel Nichols will suit up as Scarlett. Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje will play Heavy Duty. Said Taghmaoui has been cast as Breaker.

The beautiful Nichols starred in TV's Alias and recently appeared in the thriller P2. She stars as the red-haired, crossbow-wielding Scarlett. Nichols has also been cast in this year's Star Trek.

Akinnuoye-Agbaje is best known playing Mr. Eko on TV's Lost. Heavy Duty is G.I. Joe's weapons expert.

Taghmaoui was on TV's Sleeper Cell. He's in the new movie The Kite Runner. Breaker is the communications specialist for the team.

There are rumors that Byung-hun Lee will be cast as Storm Shadow -- the yin to the yang of Snake Eye's Ray Park.

Even though I am (or, was) a big fan of the '80s comic, toys, and animated TV series, I had no idea G.I. Joe was an acronym. According to THR, it stands for Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity. Save that tidbit for your next grueling match of Trivial Pursuit.

G.I. Joe will be in theaters on Aug. 7, 2009.

Oh damn. This ain't gonna be the old school stuff I was hoping for.

Kris P Lettus 12-28-2007 01:52 PM

As long as Gung Ho isn't in it, I'm good cause he was kinda gay..

Kris P Lettus 12-28-2007 01:55 PM

Seriously, he looks like a village person..

Kane Knight 12-28-2007 02:52 PM

What could be gay about a Naval Seaman?

Kalyx triaD 01-07-2008 06:10 PM

Marlon Wayans will lead the team as Ripcord.

...Okay...

D Mac 01-08-2008 04:38 AM

R U Serious

Kalyx triaD 01-08-2008 09:22 AM

Yes.

Fignuts 01-08-2008 09:40 AM

Pretty sure these people have never seen gi joe ever.

ClockShot 01-08-2008 02:36 PM

I'm having major doubts about this movie now.

Blitz 01-29-2008 12:55 PM

More cast: Dennis Quaid as General Hawk and Channing Tatum as Duke.

Blitz 01-29-2008 05:00 PM

And still more: Arnold Vosloo as Zartan and David Murray as Destro.

Boondock Saint 01-29-2008 08:32 PM

Quaid is actually a pretty awesome casting choice. :y:

OssMan 01-29-2008 10:32 PM

Pretty sure this is in developmental hell

Blitz 02-12-2008 04:45 AM

David Murray out as Destro, Christopher Eccelston is in.

U-Warrior 02-12-2008 04:48 AM

Who, the fucking jazz musician?

ClockShot 02-12-2008 09:10 AM

Hmmm. The last Doctor Who, eh.

I'd like to catch a some video before I pass judgement.

Boondock Saint 02-12-2008 01:14 PM

I kinda like that casting.

Kalyx triaD 02-12-2008 05:04 PM

Like DBZ this is another movie that should suck but I can't argue with the names involved (except for Marlon).

Blitz 03-20-2008 09:54 PM

Fucking hot.

Kalyx triaD 03-21-2008 12:24 AM

He needs his SMG.

But otherwise nice garb. Let's the rest of the production keeps up (points for the symbol on his arm.)

Boondock Saint 03-21-2008 01:30 PM

Sick.

Blitz 03-21-2008 04:28 PM

So I was looking at the IMDB page. Apparently Joseph Gordon Levitt is cast as Cobra Commander. I'm hoping this is a mistake. I really live Levitt as an actor, but way too young for Cobra Commander.

Blitz 03-21-2008 04:30 PM

And another Snake Eyes pic.

I want muscles like that. Or at least a suit with muscles like that.

Speaking of Gung Ho, I caught something on G4 that Brendan Fraser was being considered for the role. But only as a cameo.

Also, The Rock is being rumored to play Shipwreck, and Joe Gordon-Levitt is Cobra Commander. Found this info on imdb.com

The words, "Yama Hama" come to mind.
