It seems that Paramount wants more of an elite commando unit on the big screen
. Collider is reporting that a writer has been hired for a sequel to G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

We reported back in August that this sequel was being put into development at Paramount, but there has been nothing said on the project until now. While the site didn’t find out who the writer was, it seems a script was ordered and the studio is going ahead with their sequel plans. It also wasn’t immediately clear if Stephen Sommers would return to direct the sequel or not.

The site also noted that the main cast members, including Dennis Quaid, Channing Tatum, Sienna Miller, Ray Park, Rachel Nichols, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Marlon Wayans, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, have already signed on for sequels.

UPDATE: 1/7/10 2 PM ETCollider has updated their own story with the news that the writer that was hired was actually the writing team of Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who wrote the 2009 hit film Zombieland. The duo also recently signed on to write the Deadpool spin-off film as well.

Hello. Sorry it took me so long but I’ve finally added DVD captures from G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra to the gallery. Previews and gallery link below.

Hey everyone I’m sorry I took so long to get all of this up! I’ve added more pictures of Rachel at the The Cast of “G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra” Ring The NYSE Opening Bell, tons more of her at the “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” LA Premiere - 08.06.09 (we now have over 560! Many are in high quality!), candids of her Arriving at LA International Airport, candids of her Dinning with friends at Madeo in West Hollywood, more from Set 015 - “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” Press Conference, captures of her from Jimmy Kimmel Live - 08.07.09, and one more still from G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Previews and gallery links below.

Love it or hate it, G.I. Joe is one film that’s certainly made it’s mark on opening weekend. Directed by Stephen Sommers and starring Channing Tatum, Dennis Quaid, Marlon Wayans, Christopher Eccleston, Sienna Miller, Rachel Nichols and Joseph Gordon-Levitt - G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra has taken it’s fair share of knocks from fanboys and critics alike during production - only to flip them all a metaphorical “V sign” this past weekend by scoring one of the best August openings of all time.

Naturally, the critics who were prevented from seeing the film in advance have now all written their scathing reviews, with G.I. Joe’s “tomatometer” rating dropping from a strong 91% last week to 39% this morning.

However, in spite of the negative critical reviews the Summer’s last blockbuster has stormed the box office this weekend - taking an estimated $56.2 million domestically and $100.3 million worldwide!

Congrats to everyone involved in “G.I. Joe”!!

I put up a new layout, I hope everyone likes it. I’ve also added a bunch of pictures of Rachel at the “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” LA Premiere to the gallery. She looks gorgeous as usual. Previews and gallery link are below. I will have captures of Rachel on Jimmy Kimmel up soon as well as some recent candids and many many more pictures of Rachel from the LA Premiere (this is just a chunk of what I have to add from the premiere).

Also, I went to see “G.I. Joe” last night and I thought it was really good, Rachel was great, I suggest you go see it!
