Polygon sat down with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura to talk a bit about the past and the future of the G.I. Joe Live Action Movie Franchise.
Q: How long have you been talking about doing the Snake Eyes movie? I’m sure ideas have changed over the years.
Whenever we brought it up, the thing that kept coming up was the origin story of Snake and Storm because it was so interesting and chock full of emotion. Brotherhood, betrayal, all the things that make really great drama — it has that in its story. It’s a very Cain and Abel thing. We talked about many things, but it always came back to that pretty quickly because it was so rich and so elemental.
Q: What does a G.I. Joe movie need to have to be a G.I. Joe movie? The original Joe movies were very soldier-centric, but you get away from that here.
I don’t think of this as a Joe movie. I really do think of as a Snake movie. The reason we chose Snake Eyes was because we were able to make such a specific, tonal reference, whether it’s a samurai movie or a Kung Fu movie, and so I think of it more in those terms, this particular movie. It is really about a journey into a mystical land. That really appealed to me. Many years ago, I did the movie The Last Samurai when I was at Warner Brothers; the exploration of the Japanese culture, I find kind of fascinating to begin with. It’s such a different culture, to state the obvious. But there’s so much to be found there that makes you reflect on your own culture. So I think that’s the benefit of having been driven there by a Cain and Abel story.
Q: Where do you hope the Joe franchise goes from here? Do you hope to follow Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow? Is it possible we’ll see other flavors of Joe movies?
It’s not preordained. I think there’s different ways we can go. One way, for sure, and we’re having discussions about it, is how do you keep sort of the spine of this relationship that we’ve developed? This antagonistic relationship? Is there a way to fuse that into a larger Joe movie so that maybe it’s one storyline? Maybe it’s the main storyline. So it’s not clear yet what we’re going to decide on doing. The hard part right now, honestly, is we’re not sure what success means right now, given the Delta variant and the theater problems.

Fandom sat down with Hasbro Design Manager Lenny Panzica to talk about the successful G.I. Joe: Classified Series as well as its future.
The keyword there is “updates,” since it didn’t mean forgetting the original outfits but rather building upon them. For instance, the Flint figure is quickly recognizable as Flint, complete with a beret and a black, buttoned shirt, but in that case, “Flint has a bulletproof vest that we built in there and some other additions. We wanted to make it little sci-fi but not too much, because Flint is a pretty militaristic-looking character, so you can’t go too far with that.”
Regarding the future of the line, Mr. Panzica hinted at Navy S.E.A.L. Torpedo and cold-weather expert Snow Job stating “There’s so much opportunity there. And I think what happens really is from a character select standpoint asking what can we do effectively?”
Touching the subject of Dreadnoks: “I want to do Road Pig!”
Regarding more vehicle possibilities, Panzica said cost naturally has to be kept in mind – both for Hasbro to produce and the consumer to pay – but that when it came to adding vehicles like the V.A.M.P. jeep or the F.A.N.G. copter, “There are conversations, and it’s just a matter of when and how much is right. I’m thinking about it all the time. I’m always doodling and sketching and working out what is going to expand this universe. Because ultimately, we have this opportunity to bring it to life in a larger scale with more details and [we’re asking] how much can we go deeper into it. So yes, we consider all of that stuff.”
