We just wrapped up our 1 on 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.

Would that be the script that read more like an A-Team movie, than a big budget GI Joe Movie?

I enjoy Wahlberg's work, but he's too short for the role. But I guess if I can live with Monster Movie Megatron, I can deal with 5'8" Duke.

I'm assuming this is a different script than the one on Latino Review?

Hmmmm...I have really mixed emotions about this. But I think Rodimus hit the nail right on the head....

I'm just hoping it is done right...and by right, I mean good.

This could be just the jolt to put the GI Joe name back in the spotlight...and with that, keep us Joe fans/collectors very happy with new products.

I think he could do a good job depending on what they give him to work with.

I'll see the movie regardless of who plays Duke but I'd rather see someone else as Duke. Wahlberg can play Low-Light

Don't count on that. I have the full script from that review and im sure thats what they will go with. That does not mean the director will not change it. Don't expect a major rewrite if they do go with that script.
