Adrianne Palicki cast in ‘G.I. Joe’ sequel as Lady Jaye
Deadline: 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. Palicki was the lead in the failed NBC “Wonder Woman” project.
Palicki joins returning cast members Channing Tatum (who plays Duke), Ray Park (Snake Eyes), and Byung-hun Lee (Storm Shadow) along with new recruits Dwayne Johnson (Roadblock), RZA (Blind Master), D.J. Cotrona (Flint), and Elodie Yung (Jinx). One of the major roles yet to be cast is original G.I. Joe, Joe Colton. Deadline reports that Bruce Willis is the top choice for the role and he would certainly add some star power to the flick.
“G.I. Joe: Cobra Strikes” opens August 10, 2012.
