as you may or may not know, there is a live-action GI JOE film coming out in 2009 and guess what I read? according to http://comics2film.com, Sienna Miller has been cast to play The Baroness. the plot, according to http://imdb.com/title/tt1046173/synopsis:
"Stephen Sommers will direct(here's hoping he'll reign in the CG), from a script by Stuart Beattie. The story is set at Brussells-based GIJOE, an acronym for the Global Intergrated Joint Operatives Entity, and around an international co-ed force of operatives who use hi-tech equipment to battle Cobra, an evil org headed by a Scottish arms dealer."-Real Movie News 11/20/07
sounds interesting, yes? let's hope it's decent. I read a couple of the comics and watched the cartoon when I was younger, but I never really was that much of a fan. any thoughts about the film?
Sorry, but you're only half-right. Sienna Miller is cast to be the Baroness, and Stephen Sommers is directing, but that's no longer the plot of the film. GI Joe will not be based in Brussels, it will be based in America like it should be. This was stated in a recent statement from Hasbro after much fan outcry over the whole global/Brussels thing.
