Bruce Willis Really Likes The 'G.I. Joe: Retaliation' Cast

It's hard when you're the original G.I. Joe and you've got all these young kids with their exploding motorcycles and cliff-side ninja fits to compete with. [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/67397/personmain.jhtml"]Bruce Willis[/url] knows the feeling.

MTV News caught up with the action legend as part of [url="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1683336/gi-joe-retaliation-bruce-willis.jhtml"]our Summer Movie Preview[/url], and Willis had nothing but kind things to say about his younger co-stars.



But he does give credit where credit is due. In "[url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/movie/476760/moviemain.jhtml"]G.I. Joe: Retaliation[/url]," Willis plays the Joe who was there when it all began, Original Joe. "Joe Colton is actually the original G.I. Joe," Willis said. "In the story, he started the outfit a long time ago, and that outfit are kids compared to us."



His co-stars might just be kids to him, but Willis could hardly stop himself dealing out the compliments when it came to the cast. "We had such a great cast in this film, really funny and strong and tough guys, pretty girls and funny at the same time," he said.

One of Willis' co-stars, in particular, had him chuckling on set. "[url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/429099/personmain.jhtml"]Adrianne Palicki[/url], who plays Lady Jaye in the film, had Willis laughing up a storm. "Adrianne Palicki, that girl cracks me up. She is so funny. She made me laugh so many times, just great," he said.

As for his male co-stars, a man of action himself, Willis was impressed by their work, especially [url="http://www.mtv.com/movies/person/235485/personmain.jhtml"]Byung-hun Lee[/url] as Storm Shadow. "Action guys do things that I would never do. I can't even call myself an action guy," Willis said. "This guy, Byung-hun Lee, we're going to put him in another movie he's so great. He's just awesome."

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
