Danny McBride‘s “G.I. Joe” movie, starring Bradley Cooper, will march into movie theaters in 2028.

Paramount announced on Friday that the film will get a wide theatrical release on Oct. 20, 2028. McBride will direct the reimagining of the “G.I. Joe” franchise — which kicked off with the Hasbro toy line and spawned comic book series, animated series and a trio of live-action films — from a screenplay he wrote with Jeff Fradley and John Carcieri. Cooper is set to star as Duke, one of the franchise’s most iconic characters, but the studio is keeping further plot details under wraps. The film is produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Mark Vahradian, and Zev Foreman for Hasbro Entertainment.
