Dwayne The Rock Johnson Joins G.I. Joe 2
Variet reports that Dwayne The Rock Johnson is jumping into G.I. Joe 2 (now apparently titled G.I. Joe: Cobra Strikes) as Roadblock. He joins the returning Lee Byung-hun, Ray Park and Channing Tatum.
Who is Roadblock? From Wiki: “Within the heart of a man lies the desire to become a gourmet chef. You wouldn’t know that by looking at Roadblock. With his size and brawn, he can carry a .50 Browning machine gun with accompanying 50 lbs. ammo and still endure the powerful recoils. That fact alone is enough to scare the enemy. In actuality, he’s one of the most amiable members of the Joe Team and a great source of camaraderie. Aside from his impressive strength, he could take your K-rations and whip up something more appetizing. Roadblock was setting to go to France’s Escoffier School by working as a bouncer until a recruiter convinced him the Army can train him just as well. He was appalled by the menu and preparation techniques in the Army kitchen that he requested a transfer. And that is how Roadblock got into infantry.”
I'll reserve judgement for now based on the last film's ok-ness. It's good to see Dwayne in an action flick rather than a tutu though.
