Every warrior has a beginning as Paramount Pictures releases the first official trailer for the upcoming action film Snake Eyes. View trailer below.

G.I. Joe Origins stars Henry Golding as Snake Eyes, a tenacious loner who is welcomed into an ancient Japanese clan called the Arashikage after saving the life of their heir apparent. Upon arrival in Japan, the Arashikage teach Snake Eyes the ways of the ninja warrior while also providing something he’s been longing for: a home. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes’ honor and allegiance will be tested – even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him. Based on the iconic G.I. Joe character, Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins also stars Andrew Koji as Storm Shadow, Úrsula Corberó as The Baroness, Samara Weaving as Scarlett, Haruka Abe as Akiko, Tahehiro Hira as Kenta and Iko Uwais as Hard Master.

Well….we finally get a movie trailer for this film….albeit a short one (almost like a TV spot). I’m somewhat familiar with the G.I. Joe characters as I remember watching the animated cartoon show when I was growing up, but it just had way too many characters and subplots for the younger me to remember. I do, however, remember the character of Snake Eyes (mostly how the classic character outfit). This movie, which acts as a origin to Snake Eyes, definitely looks good and has plenty of action. Hopefully, a new trailer will materialize soon and showcases more of the film’s story. In the end, I’m curious to see how Snake Eyes will be received by moviegoers. Only time will tell if the movie will be good or not. Let’s hope for the former than the latter…..

Snake Eyes  arrives in theaters on July 23rd, 2021
