We have received a word from Paramount’s side that G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes has been moved from pre-production stage to production.
Furthermore, the title has been revised from just ‘Snake Eyes’ to ‘G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes’. This move may have been done in order to avoid confusion with the famous 1998 Nicolas Cage movie of the same name (also produced by Paramount Pictures).
Speaking of which, Hasbro’s own Allspark Pictures division will be co-producing the movie alongside Paramount.
Update: No director or cast member listed yet, but we hope to hear more info in an official capacity very soon.
Additional crew recruitment is currently in motion. If you are working in the entertainment industry, you may receive job openings (on your subscribed channels) to work for the movie. We received no word regarding extras.
Also, it is interesting to note that G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes carries the description “G. I. Joe Reboot Movie” from a story by Evan Spiliotopoulos. The movie is slated to release on March 27th, 2020.
Dungeons & Dragons movie will also be produced simultaneous to the new G. I. Joe movie for a 2021 release date.

Yahoo! Dump those v54, Ninja Duel and Ultimate Snake Eyes figs boys. Cooler ones are incoming :P
It's way premature to be dumping anything.
So their going the Transformers: Bumblebee route, but this will definitely be a reboot? Good, just keep the cast small and the plot simple; like adapting the Silent Interlude with flashbacks to Snake Eyes origin.
Exciting news.
They kept the name G.I.Joe in the title so that is positive.
Confirmed now it is a reboot also a positive note.
It will be interesting to see how it is handled and anything that starts to "leak' out.
I would like to see the origin of how him and Timber met.
Then you get "great"new figures like snake eyes V60 or v61 at those superb movie prices we saw with the 2 previous movies!
Bring it on!!!
Has anything been mentioned to confirm whether this is a prequel-reboot? Or will be me more in the vein of Retaliation of a sequel-type of reboot?
Jason
The concept of a reboot typically means not a prequel or a sequel but starting over. Sounds like you're describing a recast more than a true reboot.
This news article is not written well. I expect better grammar and correct verb usage from this site's staff.
