The highly anticipated Paramount film marks the beginning of Snake Eyes’ journey. He is one of the most popular members of the G.I. Joe team. In the late 2000s film series, Ray Park played the character in the 2009 live-action film G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and its sequel G.I. Joe: Retaliation in 2013. Snake Eyes first appeared in G.I.
