 |  Tema: Cobra Commander In G.I. Joe Rise Of Cobra Influenced By Original Cartoon Cobra Commander!  Vie Mayo 08, 2009 4:41 pm | |
| The MTV Movies Blog recently had a chance to talk with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who plays Cobra Commander in the upcoming G.I. Joe Rise of Cobra. Gordon-Levitt confirms that the movie version of Cobra Commander was certainly inspired by the original cartoon version, voiced by the late Chris Latta.
“I think that it’s respectfully inspired by the cartoon voice,” Gordon-Levitt explained during an interview promoting his soon-to-be-released Sundance hit “500 Days of Summer.” “But it’s just like how in ‘[X-Men Origins:] Wolverine’ you don’t want to see Hugh Jackman dressed up in a yellow jumpsuit like the Wolverine in the comics.”
Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt shared with MTV News that, while his take Cobra Commander in this summer’s “GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra” may not match the cartoon exactly, it was certainly influenced by it.
This matches Levitt’s older claims, that his costume is intensely heavy on prosthetics and that he’ll be wearing a mask for much of the film.
Gordon-Levitt, who grew up with both the cartoon and the action figures, has been very up front in the past about his enthusiasm for Latta’s work. Even if the live action film doesn’t head in the cartoon’s direction exactly, fans can take comfort in the fact that the late voice actor’s delivery was very much on Gordon-Levitt’s mind throughout the production.
Could Joseph Gordon-Levitt's as Cobra Commander have the same impact on fans as Chris Latta did? We'll find out in this summer!
