Paramount has commissioned the development of a live-action G.I. Joe film following the success of the 2007 Transformers feature film. The film is being slated for a 2009 release date with Stephen Sommers as the director and Stuart Beattie as the scriptwriter. The film will feature an international anti-terrorism task force based in New York (previously Brussels) called G.I.J.O.E, (a backronym for Global Integrated Joint Operating Entity), instead of the US-centric team featured in all previous incarnations in order to internationally market the film. The film will feature Destro and the Baroness as the main villains, the Dreadnoks as mercenaries and Cobra's hired muscle, and Cobra Commander in a "puppet master" role. Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow's rivalry will be one of the film's main plot points. The film will take place ten years in the future.

Sienna Miller has signed on to play the Baroness,with Ray Park playing Snake-Eyes. Byung-hun Lee and Rachel Nichols have signed on to play Storm Shadow and Scarlett while Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and Said Taghmaoui have signed on to play Heavy Duty and Breaker. Marlon Wayans has signed on to portray Ripcord. Channing Tatum has signed on to portray Duke. Arnold Vosloo and Dennis Quaid have signed on to portray Zartan and Hawk, respectively. David Murray was signed on to portray Destro. However, he was recently replaced by Christopher Eccleston. Joseph Gordon-Levitt has signed on to portray Rex. The film began shooting production on February 11, 2008.

Larry Hama has signed on to be the film's creative consultant.
