Stephanie Sanchez of IESB.net had this to say:
Quote:
We just wrapped up our 1:1 with Lorenzo di Bonaventura during the press day for Shooter starring Mark Wahlberg. di Bonaventura talked a bit about his upcoming projects and who he has in mind to star! We later spoke to Mark Wahlberg directly who gave us the word he wants the part!
di Bonaventura says they will start working on GI Joe immediately after they finish working on Transformers. Plus, guess who he has in mind to play Duke? None other than Shooter star, Mark Wahlberg.
Following up with Mark after our talk with Lorenzo, he basically confirmed himself playing Duke and working with Lorenzo again. "You know what, I'll do whatever Lorenzo wants me to do; it really depends on the script, obviously, but it's a cool idea. He says it's going to be kick ass, so yeah. But he's already putting that out there, so who knows. He knows how to get me to say 'yes.'"
The movie is said to be set before the rise of the COBRA organization, the film will show how the man the world will one day call Cobra Commander created his terrorist organization and honed it into a worldwide threat. Other COBRA characters, such as Destro and Stormshadow, are being planned to be included in the film. As for who is on the JOE team, look for appearances by the team's main players, such as Duke, Hawk and Snake Eyes.

Looks like the script that was leaked not to long ago found a home. Lets hope this project gets off the ground.
