Source:  Latino Review
The G.I. Joe casting news continues to roll in, even though they are already filming. According to Latino Review, Brendan Fraser has already filmed his small role as Gung-Ho for the film. Apparently it is just a one-scene cameo that takes place at The Pit.

The site is also reporting that an offer has gone out to Dwayne The Rock Johnson to portray the Shipwreck character. While the offer has apparently gone out, Johnson has not given an answer either way at this time.

G.I. Joe is currently shooting and the film is slated for an August 7, 2009 release.

lol I think you should check your spelling too. Ars? That's right I have an ars, not an ass, butt, bum, butox, etc... And dis is spelled diss. Be my guess to catch the next flight up. I'll be waiting at the airport with my jug of maple syrup. The only disease you'll be catching is an ass woopin' disease.

Oh and by the way, congrats on making a profil just for leaving this comment. I see your a big boy who knows how to make a lovely profil and knows his geographic as well. Anyways I think it's past you bed time and your little car bed is waiting for you. Hurry up! Your mommy might catch you looking at nasty little sites (again). I'm sure you wouldn't want a spanking now would you? Ah prob you would...Good night Snappy Happy Man.

Space101...Do they not teach you how to spell in Canardia? If your going to insult someone smarter than you, you should at least make sure you spell check your dis, moron! I would catch a flight to your homeland and kick your maple syrup lovin' ars if I wasn't scared to catch whatever retarded disease you've got.

Incomb, I don't give a fuck who you are, as long as that ugly face of yours is covered up, it's all good. Now what the fuck are you talking about being confused? There's nothing wrong with this cast and nothing wrong with this movie. I've been waiting for a GI Joe movie since I was a kid and it's finally coming true! The cast might be a bit off and weird, but sometimes this is what a movie needs once and a while so it can work out.
And just for the record straight, you must of had a lot of denials in your life cause there's nothing wrong with taking a drink once and a while. I on the other hand like to go out and socialize (without a Darth Vader costum on). And trust me, I don't need help in anyway and I'm proud to be Canadian! Have fun at your little pathetic Star Wars convention.

P.S. Althought it says on your profil that your not here to argue or bitch about anything, somehow you still are...

i hear Van Damme is actually in the lead role of Joe!! but their keeping that as their secret weapon for when the movie opens! ....... honest!

i dunno this whole thing seems backward.
like brenden frasier would be a much better shipwreck, and the rack would be a better gung-ho, but whatever, theres been a bunch of lame casting choices in this movie so i shouldnt be surprised.

Alright Brendan Fraser want's a role in G.I.JOE live action movie and his role will be Gung Ho so he'll be Destro's number one arch-enemy in this movie while the The Rock plays the role of Shipwreck so he'll play the Joe's number one sailor.
