Paramount won’t give up and will make a new ‘GI JOE’ film after the failure of ‘Snake Eyes’

“GI Joe” in trouble? The franchise’s future seemed uncertain after ‘Snake Eyes’ failed at the box office, but producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura is not giving up. In a recent interview with Collider, di Bonaventura revealed that Paramount Pictures is still interested in the series and is considering a new film on the big screen.

THE “G.I. Joe” franchise. started in 2009 with the movie ‘GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra’ followed by ‘GI Joe: Retaliation’ and most recently ‘Snake Eyes’ which fell short of expectations at the box office. Despite thisParamount remains willing to move forward with the action franchise and surprise with its theatrical release. What is uncertain is that it is not known if this could work.

But what can we expect from this new installment? Not many details have been released yet, but say Bonaventure revealed that they are in talks about what to do with the saga. She also said that she had previously tried to do a series with Amazon, but it didn’t work out. Now, it seems like a new movie option is the most likely, and it’s apparently already in development.

We’re talking a lot about what to do with it as a movie, so it has to be said that, somehow, the movie will most likely become a reality on the big screen. It’s always impossible to say when,” says Bonaventura.

“Snake Eyes” was the flop of the franchise

The first two ‘GI Joe’ films managed to gross over $300 million and $375 million worldwide, covering production costs. However, ‘Snake Eyes hasn’t been as successful as hoped, raising about 40 million. Some attribute this to the pandemic and lack of audience in theatres, while others feel that the quality and storyline of the film was unappealing.

Despite the failure of ‘Snake Eyes’, it seems Paramount still has faith in the franchise. But will this new installment be able to revive the saga? Only time will tell. The truth is, “GI Joe” was one of the most successful franchises of all time, based on Hasbro toys. Fans have been waiting to see more of these characters on the big screen. Will we see Channing Tatum and Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the next film? Still not known.

What we do know is that di Bonaventura does not give up easily. Despite the obstacles the franchise has faced, he continues to find ways to keep it fresh and exciting for fans. With his experience in the film industry, we can be sure of that will do whatever it takes to bring back ‘GI Joe’ upward.

However, it’s important to note that the series has faced some challenges in terms of quality. Despite the good box office results of the first two films, critics have not been very kind to them. Additionally, the most recent installment, ‘Snake Eyes’ was met with negative reviews from both the press and fans.

With this in mind, it is important that the creators of the next installment focus on crafting a compelling story, compelling characters, and stunning visuals to captivate the audience. If they can pull it off, it’s possible the franchise could regain its box office success and continue for many more years to come.
