G.I. Joe

It’s his trademark. So where is it?

Henry Golding stars in an origin story for Snake Eyes.

The first teaser is coming this weekend.

Yo, Joe!

Henry Golding stars as the famous ninja toy soldier.

Yo Joe, you’re getting a spinoff.

Could this be retaliation for “G.I. Joe: Retaliation”?

Paramount has announced its scheduled Allspark Pictures films up to 2021.

How do you save a franchise that never really took off? Combine it with another, bigger one from (technically) the same universe, of course! While Michael Bay has, uh, transformed Transformers into a billion-dollar industry with his live-action movies, G.I. Joe hasn’t exactly done as well. Apparently, there was talk at one point of joining the two franchises together in what would have been a beautiful, violent mess.

In a hundred years from now, when some bespectacled historian sits down to write the story of the G.I. Joe film franchise, the first sentence he’ll write will be, “Why did Paramount Pictures want so badly to get rid of Channing Tatum?” Then he’ll underline that sentence about a hundred different times, crinkle the whole page up into a ball, and throw that ball back into his desk drawer. In hindsight, he’s got a lot of movies to write about and it wasn’t the brightest idea to start with G.I. Joe.
