With G. I. Joe 3 greenlit by Paramount, G. I. Joe Live Action Movie script writers; Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick are busy at work writing the script for the next movie. When IGN asked what they have in mind, the writers said they might bring back The Baroness:
“We were able to chat with the G.I. Joe Retaliation screenwriters, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, recently and discovered that the pair are actively in the process of breaking the story for the third film. The Zombieland co-writers were looking at a wall of story ideas and notes for G.I. Joe 3 as we spoke. When asked what sorts of story ideas they were playing with, the scribes said that they wanted to “resurrect the Baroness like a zombie” in this next one. Now, the Barnoness didn’t actually die in the first film, so she wouldn’t need resurrection as such. We think the team just has zombies on the brain as they’ve recently launched their Amazon Zombieland pilot. They also may have meant that they’d like to see the character receive a “proper” treatment versus what was – in the minds of many fans – an odd interpretation of the iconic Joe villainess in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. It’s interesting that they called out the Baroness specifically, though, as she was one of the few villains not mentioned in Retaliation.”What do you think of this news? Would you like to see The Baroness return after the absence from G. I. Joe: Retaliation? Leave a thought at the thread associated with this News Post.

just saw this on IGN...
Retaliation Writers Want to Bring The Baroness Back For G.I. Joe 3 - IGN
I understand they are not saying she will definitly be back but still I don't like the idea I think they should move forward with new villains...CObra commander is still alive he could turn to Bludd leading a team of mercenaries or the twins with a PMC(the crimson guards!) and even serpentor at the head of a cult like in the IDW comics anyway what are your thoughts?
BEAM says
I don't think it will Sienna Miller because she's not looking to do big budget movies anymore, right. Thought I read that somewhere.
No need to bring her back. Bludd and the Twins are the way to go.
EDIT: Yup, I knew I read that about Miller

Meh.
Plenty of other characters to go with, though it wouldn't bother me either way.

Baroness is pretty iconic and has been a usual suspect in the Cobra roster for a loooong time so I have no problem with bringing her back. In fact , the idea of giving the character a movie hiatus is kinda cool. And who's to say that her reappearance in 3 won't bring with it some of the characters you mentioned?
Jinx723 says
Yeah, there are many other Cobra characters that can be used in future Movies. I just hate that Hollywood always has to kill the villains. Still pissed off that Firefly got blown to pieces.

I hope they do bring back the Baroness, and the plot could incorporate the Marvel storyline where she had to have facial reconstructive surgery. Maybe she gets caught in a blast during her prison break.
I don't know that the Joe movies have to go all Michael Bay about it, but I think it couldn't hurt to give the bad guys some eye candy...Munitia, Dr. Knox, Zarana and Zanya on a revenge trip.
1FormidableJoe says
Bring back Destro too!
BEAM says
Was she infected with nanomites? If so, could they/would they incorporate that into the story? Or are nanomites a dead issue now that Zartan has been killed (since he showed the only evidence of nanomites in Ret.)
Griffin73 says
The Crimson Twins need to be the focus of the third movie. They can be the financiers of the terror funding and they need a McGuffin to chase. Go the "Pyramid of Darkness" route and go chase after some objects. Less political drama, more adventure in foreign lands.
HardMaster says
I say bring her back, but in a small role somehow. Just to let people know the iconic version of Baroness was not forgotten in that heap of garbage we called a movie (Rise of Cobra). Just have someone else play her role. Miller was not a good interpretation of her. Oh...and she needs the accent...that's what made her so iconic!
