Having him in the movie could actually be good for it. He just got voted sexiest man and has been in a lot of "good" movies latelly. With him being voted ladies will flock to the movie with their men or just fan girls in particular so that means more tickets sold which could mean a good thing for joes as a whole.

I voted that He Will Survive, but that's not because I want it that way.
I am still hopeful that the original cut makes it out somehow.

They'll keep him alive due to his recent surge in popularity. Stephan Lang (Colonel from Avatar) would've made a better Duke.

I really dont have a problem with him playing Duke. With all the bad casting that ROC had, he was the least of the problems IMO.

You know, I always thought it'd be better if they didn't kill Duke period. Have Cobra Commander capture him. They have a history and it'd make sense. He wants to torture Duke, screw him up real good. Then Roadblock and bros could go rescue him.

There should be an option for "He should be dead but because he was in a Mommy Prawn Stripper Movie the suits want him alive"

dunno but in my opinion, if they had cast him as flint in the roc movie,it'd have been realistic and in line with the comic books.
in the comics, flint and baroness often have a teasing flirtatious relationship which almost makes one wonder whether these two had any past history together or not... in roc baroness was dukes fiance before he joined the joes...maybe they cud've told the story from that angle.... |

We also should keep in mind that Tatum has not been enthusiastic about Joe at all, and if the actor isn't going to come back for a third (and I don't know contractual that he has to) then they may just up his screen time and lengthen the beginning, maybe include flashbacks, but still leave him dead. The Rock still recently said that Roadblock emerges as the leader.
It is possible Tatum has learned to act, he looks more the part in these trailers than in the entirety of the last movie, and writing and directing always has an impact on how we perceive any actor in any role. Ultimately I fear that he will live now, but it will hurt the logic of the movie and introduce a plot hole, and maybe chase the rock away from a sequel if he isn't going to be the star. We shall see, either way, i hope to see an alternate cut on the Blu ray

More than duke, I'm hoping that they don't kill scarlett. If you look at all of the different continuities, she is just behind snakes and duke in terms of importance/prominance. It'd be a shame to go into a third movie without the option of including scarlett.

Since the actress isn't in the movie, it is always possible she was on another mission. I really feel her being left out was a mistake, even if she had few parts, she would not need much character development for the audience to care for her.
