Yes, a new G.I. Joe movie titled "G.I. Joe: Ever Vigilant" is scheduled for release on March 27, 2026. This film is set to be part of a broader expansion of the G.I. Joe universe, which includes a crossover with the "Transformers" franchise. While details about the plot and cast are still emerging, fans are excited about the new direction for the franchise. Keep an eye out for more updates as the release date approaches!

"G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" is a 2009 action film that follows a military unit known as G.I. Joe, composed of elite soldiers fighting against the nefarious organization Cobra. The story centers on Duke, a new recruit who teams up with his comrades to thwart Cobra's plan to use advanced weaponry for global domination. The film features high-octane action, cutting-edge technology, and a struggle between good and evil, highlighting themes of loyalty, bravery, and the fight against terrorism.

Channing Tatum was not removed from "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra"; he played the character Duke in that film, released in 2009. However, he did express hesitation about reprising his role in the sequel, "G.I. Joe: Retaliation," due to concerns over the direction of the franchise and his desire to pursue other projects. Ultimately, his character was killed off early in "Retaliation," allowing for a new storyline to develop, which also paved the way for other characters to take the lead.

As of October 2023, there is no official announcement regarding a fourth "G.I. Joe" movie following "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" (2009) and its sequels. However, there are discussions about expanding the G.I. Joe franchise, particularly with the release of "Snake Eyes" in 2021, which serves as a reboot. Future projects may be in development, but details and timelines remain unclear. Fans should keep an eye on announcements from studios for any updates.
