One of the big rumors around the 3D conversion G.I. Joe Retaliation delay was that they were cutting back in some additional footage of Channing Tatum, and now a producer has addressed those rumors. So should we expect some additional Tatum once this flick finally opens?
The whole delay and reshoot ordeal surrounding G.I. Joe: Retaliation just keeps getting weirder and weirder. Now co-star Channing Tatum has chimed in on the mess, and he seems just as confused as the rest of the world.
Just a few days ago, we learned from our main man Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson that G.I. Joe: Retaliation's release was being pushed back to March 29, 2013 in order to convert the film to 3D. But today we learned there's another reason why it was pushed back and yep ... it was because the test screenings tanked.
As we reported yesterday, the G.I. Joe sequel has been pushed from June 29, 2012 to March 29, 2013. At the time, the reasons—aside from additional time for converting the film to 3D—were mere speculation. Now, the Rock clears it up. Sorta.
The new, full trailer G.I. Joe Retaliation trailer has been released online, and offers up a ton of new details on the storyline—plus, almost everything seems to blow up. Which is awesome.
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra was, generously speaking, not good. But the upside is that the sequel has no where to go but up. And by the looks of it, G.I. Joe: Retaliation has picked up that gauntlet, filled it with gunpowder and muscle, and jammed it down Cobra Commander's throat.
