Dwayne Johnson to star in 'G.I. Joe 2'

Let's be honest here: "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra" doesn't really need a sequel, right? That said, the folks at Paramount think it's a fabulous idea to move ahead with "G.I. Joe 2: Cobra Strikes," and it looks like Dwayne Johnson ("Fast Five") will be part of the cast.
Deadline says The Rock will probably show up in the action film to play a character known as Roadblock. Jon M. Chu, the man behind "Justin Bieber: Never Say Never," will direct "G.I. Joe 2," and from what I'm hearing, Channing Tatum should be returning as well.
