The Cobra Special Forces Facebook page last night revealed a new look at Cobra Commander as he will appear in the upcoming G.I. Joe sequel, G.I. Joe: Retaliation, due in theaters on June 29. He looks much more...well, like Cobra Commander...than he did in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Given how much better the second film looks so far, can we just call a mulligan on the first one or does the fact that they share a continuity make that too difficult? Formerly played by The Dark Knight Rises star Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Cobra Commander is now rumored to be played by Faran Tahir of Warehouse 13 fame. That won't leave the Joes and their enemies completely without the support of some comic book stars, though; Adrienne Palicki, who played Wonder Woman in ABC's aborted pilot, will star as Lady Jaye along with Bruce Willis (Red) as the original G.I. Joe, Ray Park (X-Men) as Snake Eyes and Dwayne Johnson, who is currently cast in a number of comics-related projects, as Roadblock.
