Sommers re-teams with Brendan Fraser & The Rock for G.I. JOE!?!
Fraser as Gung-Ho, The Rock as Shipwreck?
Crazy, crazy news story from the good folks at Latino Review who have rarely been wrong in the past when it comes to blockbuster scoops for the biggest movies in Hollywood. The site carry the exclusive news that Brendan Fraser will appear in G.I. Joe for a brief cameo (possibly setting up the chance to appear in future movies) and Sommers is trying desperately hard to convince The Rock to appear in a significant role. Both actors worked with Sommers on The Mummy franchise. In Brendan Fraser's case, they claim he has already shot a one scene cameo in the training sequence segment of the film as Gung-Ho, who looks like a rather goofy fellow...
They also claim an offer has been made to The Rock to play Shipwreck... Joe isn't my strong point so I have no idea who these guys are. We await some kind of confirmation.
