Henry Golding Has Seen G.I. JOE: SNAKE EYES and He Says Fans Are in For "Something Insane"
G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes star Henry Golding has seen the film and he recently shared his reaction to it on Twitter, and as you might expect, he loved what he saw. He also says that fans are in for “something insane.”
He says: “Just saw [Snake Eyes] ... Holy hell. This is the exact opposite of the cookie cutter, super people movies. Wow. You guys are in for something insane, I can't wait for you all to get your mits on this beast. Yowzers!!!! Literally grinning from ear to ear.”
As a long time G.I. Joe fan, I’ve been looking forward to seeing this movie. I didn’t really care for the first two live-action films, but it sounds like this upcoming film could be the start of a great G.I. Joe film franchise. We’ll have to wait and see.
G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes is being directed by Robert Schwentke (RED, The Captain), and the cast for the film also includes Samara Weaving as Scarlett, Ursula Corbero as The Baroness, and Andrew Koji as Storm Shadow. The movie also stars Iko Uwais, who is playing Hard Master, “Snake Eyes’ tough as nails teacher who is also a skilled swordmaster.” Then there’s The Expanse actor Steven Allerick, who will take on the role of the father of the iconic G.I. Joe ninja commando.
The G.I. Joe spinoff follows Snake Eyes, “who while on the hunt for the man who murdered his father, travels to Japan and trains with the ancient Arashikage ninja clan.” The Arashikage “worked as shadowy assassins for generations, using deception to earn their keep as ninjas, as well as developing a reputation for being able to perform impossible tasks.”
The movie will be released at some point in 2021. Are you excited about watching this film?
