Back in May we learned the sad news that Adrianne Palicki will NOT portray the new Wonder Woman this Fall after NBC decided NOT to pick-up the David E. Kelley penned series … but today we learn better news for Palicki. She has been cast as Lady Jaye in the upcoming sequel film G.I. Joe: Cobra Strikes.
Friday Nights Lights series star Adrianne Palicki will play the female lead in the Paramount sequel to G.I. Joe: Cobra Strikes. She’ll play Lady Jaye and joins a cast that includes Channing Tatum, as well as Dwayne Johnson, who signed on to play the role of Roadblock in the Jon M. Chu-directed film. Ray Park is expected to reprise his Snake Eyes character, Byung Hun-lee is expected to bring back Storm Shadow, and RZA just joined the film. The studio’s casting quickly; they need the film for next summer because the Star Trek sequel won’t be ready and this rebooted film and World War Z are prime candidates to fill summer slots … As for Palicki, she’s free because the Wonder Woman pilot didn’t get picked up. She’ll next be seen starring in Red Dawn and her screen credits include Legion, Women in Trouble and Lone Star.
As you may recall, we learned early last month that Dwayne The Rock Johnson is up for the role of Roadblock in Cobra Strikes … which is fine but I LOVE that Adrienne nabbed the role of Lady Jaye. It’s a bummer that her Wonder Woman dreams got dashed so I’m happy she’ll get to play a superhero in the new GI Joe film. Good for her :D
