G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Visionairies, M.A.S.K. and ROM Interconnected Movie Universe

Posted on December 15, 2015 at 11:15 am by DESTRO under G.I. Joe Movie

New information has been released about the future of the G.I. Joe Movie franchise and many other Hasbro brands that children of the 80’s will always remember. The problem is they want to unite those brands as a Hasbro Movie Universe with no mention of Transformers being included.

I have VERY LITTLE faith that Paramount writers will be able to pull this off without an anchor like Marvel doing most of the leg work, and the loyal fans base threatening Armageddon if they change to much. The press release does not mention if this will be one focused movie or cameo connected universe with each receiving it’s own Live Action Movie.

Read on to see the full press release:

Paramount Pictures and Hasbro Combine Forces to Establish Cross-Property Film Universe

Overall Deal Includes Hasbro Properties G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Visionaries, M.A.S.K. and ROM

HOLLYWOOD–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Paramount Pictures and Hasbro, Inc. announced a groundbreaking deal today to collaborate on feature films for five of Hasbro’s iconic properties. Under the agreement, Paramount and Allspark Pictures, Hasbro’s film label, will establish a cross-property interconnected onscreen universe, featuring the deep stories and great characters from Hasbro brands G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Visionaries, M.A.S.K. (Mobile Armored Strike Kommand) and ROM.

“Paramount and Hasbro have had a longstanding relationship and we’re proud of the success we’ve enjoyed on the ‘TRANSFORMERS’ and ‘G.I. JOE,’ franchises,” said Brad Grey, Chairman and CEO of Paramount Pictures. “We’re excited to grow our agreement and make even more movies based upon these popular and powerful Hasbro characters and their worlds.”

Allspark Pictures, Hasbro’s film label, will produce the films and Brian Goldner (Chairman, President and CEO, Hasbro), Stephen Davis (Executive Vice President and Chief Content Officer, Hasbro), and Josh Feldman (Head of Film Development, Hasbro) have worked closely with Paramount in shaping the interconnected universe for the properties. To develop the creative roadmap for G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Visionaries, M.A.S.K. (Mobile Armored Strike Kommand) and ROM, Hasbro and Paramount will assemble a writer’s room which will include some of the most notable creative talent in Hollywood

“Hasbro and Allspark Pictures put storytelling at the center of everything that we do. These brands are filled with memorable stories and vivid characters, and this Universe creates a framework for how they will become interconnected,” said Brian Goldner, Chairman, President and CEO of Hasbro. “Extending our partnership with Paramount allows us to continue our long-term strategy and overall vision to build dynamic worlds for all of our brands, and we are thrilled to collaborate with them as we develop these properties.”

Rob Carlson of WME represented Hasbro in this deal.

The Paramount and Hasbro partnership is responsible for the worldwide blockbuster success of the “TRANSFORMERS” franchise, which has earned $3.8 billion to-date, and whose films, directed by Michael Bay, are amongst the highest grossing movies of all time; and the “G.I. JOE” franchise, which have earned more than $675 million worldwide.

    Sounds like great news. I guess only time will tell how this is going to work out for the Joe franchise but I for one am optimistic anyway.

    So who are these people? Are the comic book writers? What else have they done? Does mean we have to wait until 2018 for GIJ3? Will we get another 2 years of 50th product then? If so, hopefully they will release the rest of the concept case figures and vehicles.

    Not Sure.

    Wrong side of the house. One would hope that Hasbro wouldn't leave G.I.Joe out in the cold, but for now only time will tell.
