Snake Eyes: GI Joe Origins (2021)
Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins stars Teen Choice nominee Henry Golding (Crazy Rich Asians, The Gentlemen) as Snake Eyes, a tenacious loner who is welcomed into an ancient Japanese clan called the Arashikage, where he finds a home and learns the ways of the ninja warrior. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes’s honor and allegiance will be tested – even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him.
Based on Hasbro’s iconic G.I. Joe character, the film’s cast includes Critics Choice Super Award nominee Andrew Koji (Warrior), IGN Summer Movie Award nominee Samara Weaving (Bill & Ted Face the Music), Úrsula Corberó (Money Heist) and Iko Uwais (The Raid).
Screen Rant proclaimed Snake Eyes “the best G.I. Joe movie yet… the origin story we’ve been waiting for… A wildly entertaining thrill ride.”
