Joseph Gordon-Levitt on Cobra Commander Role in 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra'
April 18, 2009 01:04:09While many of "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra" characters have been uncovered previously, there are yet clues on how Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Cobra Commander will look like. However, when talking to Associated Press about the character's new action figure in which the character's hood has been replaced with a scuba-like mask, the 28-year-old actor has finally shed a ray of light.
"That toy is not my face. It's a mask. I like that I get to keep my face," he insisted, explaining. "It has less to do with me and more to do with this character that I helped create. That's more thrilling to me. It's this thing that was born out of a creative, collaborative process between me and a bunch of other people that all worked on creating this character."
Cobra Commander Seen as Twisted Character in 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra'
September 05, 2008 12:09:13More details from the upcoming "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra" have been shared and this time it is about the meanest of the baddies, Cobra Commander. Providing more information about this character, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura told MTV News that Destro's boss will be portrayed as an intricate character saying, "As we see it, he's a very twisted character. As the backstory evolves, you discover why his personality [is like that]."
Contrasting the masked character played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt with Heath Ledger's Joker, di Bonaventura noted that unlike Joker who takes control of his background, Cobra's past will be unveiled in the movie. "I thought what was great in 'The Dark Knight' was that Heath kept telling you different stories [about his past] so you never knew what it was, and they were all spooky and crazy," he said. "[In our film] you get to see it, and you get to understand what's happened to this guy."
