When GI Joe: Retaliation’s release was delayed from last August to next March, the official reason was so that they could convert it to 3D. However many wondered if there were major problems with the movie, which seemed to be confirmed when reshoots were ordered. However it now seems that the main issue was that Paramount made a major miscalculation about Channing Tatum.
He was the main star of the first GI Joe film, but then they decided that while he’d be in the follow-up (his contract meant he had little choice in the matter), he’d be majorly sidelined. Then he became one of the biggest stars around thanks to the likes of Magic Mike and 21 Jump Street, and so the reshoots were apparently mainly about reinserting him as a main character. That’s noticeable is this new trailer, as in earlier marketing Tatum was pretty much invisible – he didn’t even make it into many of the posters or trailers at all. Now he’s very visible at the beginning and end of this new trailer, alongside newbies Bruce Willis and The Rock. The film hits UK cinemas March 27th, 2013.
You’ll also notice that London isn’t going to come out of GI Joe: Retaliation very well.
Michael Bay is leaving behind giant special effects and explosions for Pain & Gain, his new thriller starring Dwayne Johnson & Mark Wahlberg. However it appears the director still wants a bit of a ‘go USA’ backdrop, literally, as this new poster sees his stars (but not stripes) in front of an American flag.
Last February, it was revealed that Dwayne Johnson and director Brett Ratner were in talks to make a film based on Hercules. Now, we have confirmation that the actor and filmmaker have officially signed on, with MGM co-producing the movie alongside Paramount, according to 
In the last 15 years, Barry Sonnenfeld hasn’t had much luck outside the Men In Black franchise, but he’s hoping that will change as the director Barry Sonnenfeld is now in talks to take the helm on Warner Bros.’ fantasy adaptation Lore, according to
