The sequel to the original G.I Joe motion picture, Retaliation has taken the world by storm since its trailer hit the internet and almost everyone is talking about it.
Bringing in the likes of Dwayne Johnson, who everyone on the planet already knows as The Rock, Bruce Willis and Ray Stevenson, the sequel looks to be taking a slightly different direction from the first movie.
The Rock will be appearing as the fan favourite, Roadblock, while Bruce Willis is set to take on the role of Joe Colton and Ray Stevenson will be Fire Fly and from the trailer at least, each seems almost perfect to play their roles.
From what we have gathered, the entire Joe force has been wiped out after the President of the United States, who is actually Zartan in disguise, issued an order and the remaining operatives are either captured or dead.
Snake Eyes will also be returning along with Duke, while Flint appeared in the trailer but only momentarily.
There is plenty of speculation as to what happened to the rest of the cast, with a majority of the first film’s characters including Ripcord and General Hawk not even getting a split second of airtime. This has led to speculation that the characters have
been killed off, though those with more imagination are sure to have come to other conclusions.
Other characters also made an appearance, including Storm Shadow who has a childhood rivalry with Snake Eyes. The character seemed to have perished near the end of the second film, though Hollywood has a habit of bringing the dead back to life.
The trailer itself was very effective in building up some hype for Retaliation showing off a rather epic mountain side sword fight on ropes and a number of explosions and gunshots filled the trailer which played along to the Glitch Mob’s dubstep remix of
Seven Nation Army.
All in all, the first trailer for G.I Joe Retaliation hit all the right buttons with the fans and gave away just as much as was needed till the next trailer comes around.
