One is for the team's ordanance expert and one for the team's communications specialist. Unfortunately, the ordanance expert isn't Roadblock, it's Heavy Duty. But the communications specialist is a REAL SURPRISE!!! It's not Hi-Tech, nope, not Dial-Tone or Mainframe either! It's BREAKER!!!
Heavy Duty will be played by Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje(from the TV show LOST) http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0015382/
Breaker will be played by Said Taghmaoui. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0846548/
I'm betting these 2 will be changed to the International team members instead of being American like they are(one's from Illinois and the other from Tennessee).
Here's the link to the original news break: http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option...3981&Itemid=99 |

an arabic breaker? I can live with that, I guess they can reinvent him considering he's
"dead" in the comic continuity. |

He is not even necessary we never needed another Roadblock. why is it so stinkin hard to do Roadblock. This is a HUGE dissapointment to me. Thank god they had the good sense not to put that turd high tech in there. For god's sake stay with the classic characters Please. I mean they didn't put characters from transformers Armada in the tformers movie why screw up joe with these stupid modern joe characters i.e. I HATE HEAVY DUTY! |

Breaker is cool though and unexpected.
