I'm excited for this. Hopefully McBride gives us a great GI Joe Movie

EXCLUSIVE: Danny McBride and Paramount Pictures has found their Duke to lead its troops in its new G.I. Joe movie as sources tell Deadline Bradley Cooper is set to star as the leader the military unit in the latest film based on the Hasbro toy line.
McBride is directing the pic, who landed the job after he was one of a handful of pitches Paramount was looking at earlier this year. McBride is celebrated for his distinctive voice and creative vision and is also writing the screenplay with Jeff Fradley and John Carcieri.
Once McBride landed the job, he had a wish list of actors he wanted to star with Cooper high on that list. Given Cooper’s busy schedule which includes directing and starring opposite Margot Robbie in the upcoming Ocean’s prequel, there was no guarantee he would be able to commit to the film but after reading the script and meeting with McBride, he knew wanted to do star in the pic and negotiations began in recent weeks.

Plot details are under wraps, but it will be a reimagining of the G.I. Joe franchise. It will also be uncoupled from a previous crossover film with Transformers that is no longer in development.
Growing Paramount’s franchises is a key pillar of the slate strategy set forth by Co-Chairs Josh Greenstein and Dana Goldberg earlier this year, as they’ve assembled top talent to develop and revitalize Paramount’s existing franchises and IP, including Days of Thunder, starring Anne Hathaway, reuniting Tom Cruise with Jerry Bruckheimer with Jonathan Levine directing, World War Z, landing Brad Pitt’s return with Oscar winner Ed Berger set to direct

It was fine. It was forgettable but unfairly shite on.

Other writers involved:
Jeff Fradley
- Halloween (2018) — screenplay by Jeff Fradley, Danny McBride, and David Gordon Green. This is the major feature screenplay credit on his résumé. IMDb
- He has also written extensively on The Righteous Gemstones and Vice Principals, but those are television. TV Guide
John Carcieri
- The Legacy of a Whitetail Deer Hunter (2018) — screenplay/written by credit. The Netflix comedy stars Josh Brolin and Danny McBride and was directed by Jody Hill. IMDb
- Most of Carcieri's writing résumé is television: The Righteous Gemstones, Vice Principals, Eastbound & Down, The Last O.G., Workaholics, etc.
It'll certainly have some good humor

From all accounts this is not going to be a chessy, comedic film by any means. Prob more of a pure action thriller film.
McBride stated he always wanted to do a Dreadnaughts movie, and Paramount came to him and said, why not the whole thing?
So he said hell yes.

McBride loves GI Joe and gives me hope for his take on Springfield .
But I also liked his Halloween

Very pumped for this. Grew up on GI Joe and McBride seems like the coolest dude working in entertainment these days.
And goddamn Deadline, knowing how to write is half the battle
