BEHOLD COBRA COMMANDER

I just found out that JOSEPH GORDEN-LEVITT has been cast as COBRA COMMANDER. I had heard they were doing a "Rise of Cobra Commander" approach, but didn't think he would be so young. Levitt (27) is a good actor, but seems far too young by atleast a decade. I can easily see him in a flashback during, say, his Military Academy days (or something). But an adult Cobra Commander, already in charge of Cobra?? Thoughts?

Personally, I had wanted GARY OLDMAN to play the part. Maybe now they can put him in the MAJOR BLUDD role! Regardless, as long as Cobra Commander looks more or like the below pic, I'll be happy (we all know he won't, but a dork can dream!)

well lois lane was an established journalist and had a 5 year old kid, and she (actress) was only 22,....so, I guess hollywood thinks everyone should look like kids in high school. There's a reason everyone says they are "out of touch"

When they cast the kid from Third Rock from the Sun (Wasn't he the commander of that mission?) to play Cobra Commander, Gary Oldman is clearly out of their budget's reach. This film may be worse than Batman and Robin.
