In March, the studio unveiled the first photo of fan favorite ninja Snake Eyes (Ray Park), posing in character with sword drawn.

"He's the world's greatest ninja, but he's also next-generation. He's not afraid to use a sword one second, and a split-second later he's pulling out his Glock," director Stephen Sommers told USA Today. "His chief nemesis is arguably the world's other great ninja, Storm Shadow. The two grew up together, were blood brothers and now are mortal enemies."

Also announced in the cast, but yet to be revealed in character, are Channing Tatum as Duke, Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Cobra Commander, Sienna Miller as the Baroness, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Heavy Duty, Dennis Quaid as General Hawk and Marlon Wayans as Ripcord.

Among those rumored to also be joining the cast are Brendan Fraser as Gung Ho, Arnold Vosloo as Zartan, Christopher Eccleston as Destro and Karolina Kurkova as Cover Girl.

Christopher Eccleston as DESTRO?!?!? I grew up on GI JOE, HE-MAN, TRANSFORMERS, and THUNDERCATS. So I most definitely want to see these be made into awsome movies. I was for the most part happy with Transformers, but Destro was a stone-cold BROTHA. Not some goofy looking old guy!

I really hate saying this...but I think this movie will suck hard. Right now I will probably see it more out of loyalty than interest in the movie. The casting is horrendous(no disrepect to the actors and actresses). What I really hate is that in this day and age of where we have talent from all over the world they get a Korean to play a Japanese man and change one character's race alto
