"G.I. Joe" expands the storyline of the sequel "Snake Eyes" and is in preparation

Although it has not been officially released yet, "G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes" has been officially launched. As a spin-off movie of "G.I. Joe", "Snake Eyes" has been highly anticipated since the filming began. And the "original" sequel of "G.I. Joe", "G.I. Joe 3" is also in preparation.

From this point of view, the universe of "G.I. Joe" is slowly taking shape, and Hasbro and Paramount seem to intend to operate it into a huge universe with interconnected characteristics. In the original setting, Snake Eyes is a ninja warrior. Although this should be played by a Japanese actor, considering the popularity of Henry Golding after "Crazy Rich Asians", it is understandable to use him to play Snake Eyes.

In the original story, the female character named Scarlett has a complicated relationship and entanglement with Snake Eyes. Australian actress Samara Weaving will play the role. In "G.I. Joe", Scarlett is played by American actress Rachel Nichols. In the character setting, Scarlett is a woman who is proficient in kung fu and firearms. Therefore, her role in "Snake Eyes" can be imagined. It is reported that the story of "Snake Eyes" will focus on how Snake Eyes became a ninja from an ordinary person, and the film will show his emotions with his father.

The "G.I. Joe Universe" is currently expanding. In addition to "Snake Eyes", "G.I. Joe 3" is also being actively prepared. "G.I. Joe" has shot two films in 2009 and 2013, but these two films were not successful. The preparations for "G.I. Joe 3" began in 2015 and continue to this day. In the plan at the time, the film was directed by D.J. Caruso and the release date was scheduled for 2020. However, this version of "G.I. Joe 3" has not started filming. It was previously reported that Paramount considered connecting the two Hasbro series of "G.I. Joe" and "Transformers". However, this approach of imitating Marvel is quite difficult to achieve, so it has been pending.

Currently, the release date of Snake Eyes is scheduled for October 23 this year. There is no specific arrangement for the sequel of Snake Eyes.
