According to Variety, Paramount Pictures and Hasbro have decided not to move forward with a new G.I. Joe movie treatment written by Max Landis. Sources say the project was rejected for creative reasons as the studio focuses on relaunching major IPs, including Star Trek.
Landis said he was grateful for the opportunity and revealed his pitch centered on a story where the villainous Cobra had already taken over the world, turning G.I. Joe into a conspiracy theory. Paramount is reportedly still reviewing scripts from other writers, including Danny McBride.
Do you think a new G.I. Joe movie should take a bold new direction, or stay closer to the classic formula?
