Star of the first film Dolph Lundgren recently talked to Moviehole about what he has heard regarding the sequel so far:
“I know they were talking about someone really young, like that guy, what’s his name? The guy that was in G.I. Joe…. Channing Tatum, or someone like him to bring that audience.
Lundgren then commented on Jean-Claude Van Damme coming in for the sequel:
“Stallone said something like, “Yeah, I want you to break his fucking neck somehow…”. So, we’ll see what happens!”.
“So, I think that there’s a certain chance he’ll be in it. As a bad guy he would be cool. I think he should play a bad guy. It’s a great way to come back, you know, because people aren’t used to that, doing a whole bunch of evil crap. People will be like, “Woah, he’s killing all these innocent people! Jesus!” That’d make them feel something.”
I like the idea of Van Damme. Not real crazy about Tatum. But that’s just because I have a strong dislike for him as an actor.

STALLONE! If Van Damme was a bad guy, that would be really great. I agree. As far as Channing Tater, meh. GI Joe was a crock of shit, and I really dont consider him an action star. They need to get cracking on the movie though asap! I am already ready.
I AGREE - TATUM IS THE WORST ACTOR IN FILM.
HE SHOULD NOT EVEN BE IN ANY ARTICLE ABOUT POTENTIAL CASTING DECISIONS. BUT I LIKE YOUR STYLE THAT YOU KNOW IT, YOU KNOW HE IS AN EMBARRASSMENT.
VAN DAMME NEEDS TO BE IN THE EXPY 2- HOGAN SHOULD BE IN IT AS WELL. IF THEY REALLY WANT TO BRING MORE FANS - BRUING BRUCE WILLIS IN TO PLAY THE VILLAIN - HE WAS GREAT IN THE FIRST - AND BRING ARNOLD BACK - GIVE ARNOLD HIS OWN BADASS TEAM, BLAINE AND MAC, VENTURA AND BILL DUKE.
THERE ARE WAYS TO DO THIS, AND WAYS TO DESTROY IT. I THINK THE FIRST ONE WENT WELL. SLY IS A GREAT WRITER... SOMETIMES HE CAN GET SILLY.
BUT THATS WHAT I WOULD DO - TRY TO BRING INA GIRL, BUT STICK TO ADDING CLASSIC GUYS...
