There you have it, folks! I have to say, I haven’t been the biggest fan of the previous films, but Snake Eyes has been one of the bright spots in the films and I am extremely excited to see him lead the upcoming film! I’m crazy excited to see what we do next.” It gives so much more creative control over where this universe is going. It’s phenomenal that Paramount and Hasbro chose to go right to the beginning and really start off with such a story. Golding adds, “Having this solo movie, we get to set the precedent for where story leads. There is a gradual reveal that there’s a larger world here.” You come to realize the Arashikage as they’ve traditionally been are affiliated with the Joes, therefore that brings in Cobra.
