Gung Ho can't be in the movie, though. Name couldn't clear. Maybe Leatherneck can happen, though.
I didn't know that. Right up till I saw the movie for the first time, I was under the impression that Brendon Frasier was Gung Ho. I got that info from IMDB. He said that Gung Ho was sort of a distant relative to Rick McConnell from the Mummy movies. He didn't really have more than just a cameo and he wasn't crucial to the story so he could have been any character. Like Cover Girl.
After watching the "Ballad of G.I.*JOE" I think Olivia Wilde would have been awesome for The Baroness, though I can't fault Sienna Miller, she did look the part.
From the same video, Vinnie Jones would have been awesome for Destro. For one thing he has a more imposing figure than Christopher Ekelson and definately had the more baratone voice that is associated with Destro.
In fact, lose the cartoon uniforms (much as I loved them) and pretty much every actor in that video looks the part.
Leena Headly (Sarah Connor) as Lady Jaye
Amy Smart as Cover Girl after a cut and dye job (Hey ARAH had a blonde Cover Girl who was never seen again and the character returned as a red head. It could happen)
Owen Wilson as Footloose
Henry Rollins, Glen Danzig and Flea as Dreadnoks.
Only thing to add is that Scott Ian from Anthrax would make an awesome Dreadnok.
