G.I. Joe: Retaliation - 2012

G.I. Joe: Retaliation is an upcoming sci-fi action film based on Hasbro's G.I. Joe toy, comic and media franchises. It is a sequel to 2009's G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

The film will feature the G.I. Joe Team coming into a conflict with Zartan, Storm Shadow and Firefly all serving under the newly released Cobra Commander.

Joe operatives as traitors and wipes most of the joes out with a sneak attack, leaving only Duke, Roadblock, Snake Eyes, Flint and Lady Jaye. Zartan now has all the world leaders under Cobra control, with warheads headed towards innocent populaces

The Film is written by the Zombieland writers, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, directed by Jon Chu starring Channing Tatum, Arnold Vosloo, Ray Park, Jonathan Pryce and Lee Byung-hun reprising their roles from the first film. It is scheduled to be released on June 29, 2012 and is distributed by Paramount Pictures.
