Even though they decided to leave out most of the actors from the original film, so we won't see
Rachel Nichols, Sienna Miller nor
Joseph Gordon Levitt again,
G.I. JOE II: COBRA STRIKES is in the process of casting new names. After they've signed
Dwayne Johnson in the role of Roadblock, which will apparently be the lead one beside
Channing Tatum's Duke , they now also have
Adrianne Palicki (the wanna-be Wonder Woman) as Lady Jaye, an intelligence officer in the G.I. Joe team. The film, which will be released next summer and will be all about ninjas, might also get
Bruce Willis as Joe Colton, the original G.I. according to "Deadline"!
