The Coventry Telegraph's sources say auditions are definitely going on, as well as revealing that actor Danny Arroyo, who's apparently a big comic book fan, has tried for a part in the film. Here's an extract from the article...
Just recently, a report in The Sun claimed that former X Factor winner Shayne Ward had tested for an unspecified role.
It's now been confirmed to us that auditions are indeed happening for this next film, G. I. Joe 2: Cobra Strikes.
We are hearing that among the actors who have read for one of the new roles in the script is Danny Arroyo. Arroyo's credits include Lethal Weapon 4, The Resistance TV series, the kooky comedy Repo Chick and horror thriller Kill Katie Malone. He's currently filming the main lead role in a Christmas family movie called Santa's Dog.
G.I. Joe 2: Cobra Strikes, directed by John Chu, hits screens in August 2012. New characters from the G.I. Joe cartoon/comics mythos will feature in the story because the only returning cast from the first film are Channing Tatum as Duke, Ray Park as Snake Eyes and Lee Byung-hun as Storm Shadow.
Who could this actor be playing? Any ideas?
