GI Joe Movie Script Turned In

We’ve already heard quite about all the changes they’ve made to The GI JOE team for the movie, and while they’re cold to fans who grew up with the team, its something Hollywood feels they need to do and we can’t change it.
Thankfully, Cobra The Enemy seems to be making the transition to the screen seemlessly. IESB reports.

The villains of course are Destro, the Baroness and Cobra but we have been told that Cobra Commander will have more of a “Emperor Palpatine”-like character arch. The Joes will be mainly facing Destro and the Baroness.

Helping Cobra will be one of the coolest groups of characters from the G.I. Joe comics and cartoons…the Dreadnoks.

The mercenaries known as Dreadnoks lead by Zartan including his brother and sister Zarana and Zandar will be the hired muscle that Cobra will use in its day to day operations. Zartan is known for his martial arts ability as well as his mastery of disguise. Additionally, through genetic manipulation, Zartan is able to change the color of his skin to blend in with his surroundings.

Thank you screenwriter Stuart Beattie, for preserving the incredible awesome that is Cobra. His draft also included Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow as focal characters and reports that the team is still based in the US. The Dreadnoks were always some of the better characters from the GI Joe canon, serving both as an unpredictable threat and a great source of comic relief. They’ll be a welcome inclusion in this movie.
