First Look – Duke, Storm Shadow, The Baroness, and Hawk

Here we have our very first look at team leader Duke (played by actor Channing Tatum) from the upcoming live-action G.I. Joe film being directed by Stephen Sommers (The Mummy, Van Helsing) and set to be released late summer 2009:

Not bad I suppose.  It’s a little easier picturing Channing Tatum in the role now that we’ve seen him in full costume.

The character’s look is a bit too X-Men for my tastes.  Also, judging from what we’ve seen of Scarlett (click here to see), it looks as though we won’t be seeing the Joes in their iconic duds either. 

At least they got Snake Eyes right…

On the Cobra side of things, here we have Storm Shadow (Lee Byung-hun) and The Baroness (Sienna Miller):

These two are a bit closer to the look fans of the series are accustomed to, although the Baroness is missing her glasses in the above pic.

And lastly, here’s a shot of Dennis Quaid as General Hawk:

I actually like this one.  The tough guy smirk is a nice touch. 

General Hawk was always a favorite of mine in the old 80s cartoon.
