Jumping The Broom star joins G.I. Joe: Retaliation
The cast continues to fill out for Jon Chu's G.I. Joe: Retaliation, and I think we're seeing a lot of the minor parts getting snatched up now. The latest addition is DeRay Davis, who those that took our advice and saw Jumping The Broom earlier this year will recognize. He also had a role as Ray-Ray the hustler in both Barbershop movies. Not a bad stand up comedian, either. Here's how The Rock, who seems to be the guy for making these casting announcements, revealed Davis' inclusion...
“On set now. We’re all waiting for ONE actor: @DeRayDavis. Very late. Time to get ya ass whupped son..”
So chances are The Rock's next Twitpic will be him delivering the People's Elbow straight to DeRay's chest. No word on who he'll play just yet, but he does have an Alpine look to him sorta.
G.I. Joe 2: Retaliation will hit theaters on June 29th 2012, and will star Channing Tatum, Ray Park, Dwayne Johnson, Lee Byung-Hun, Bruce Willis, Adrienne Palicki, Ray Stephenson, Elodie Yung, and the Rza.
