GI Joe 3 Movie Release Date: Producer Talks Crossover Film With Transformers: Age of Extinction Cast (VIDEO)

In a brand new interview, Transformers: Age of Extinction film producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura talked about the possibility of his film franchise joining forces with Hasbro's, GI Joe.

"I think later on that's a possibility but I don't think in the near future" said di Bonaventura to Total Film, "It's not something we talk about either. There's a lot more story to be told in both cases.

The movie producer further expressed his views on a possible crossover with the other blockbuster movie franchise, "If at some moment we all think 'You know what? It's time to bring the two of them together' we'll do that, but I think they're strong enough to exist on their own," said di Bonaventura.

In another interview, he revealed what fans can expected in the upcoming film starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, "The last movie was really the set-up, in a way, for Roadblock to take over. Dwayne came aboard a little late last time so we weren't able to do everything I think we can do this time, and really get a story that services what the audience expects out of him, and also as an actor pushes him into areas that you wouldn't normally explore in a big franchise movie perhaps," said di Bonaventura, according to Collider.

Hasbro created the Transformer toys in 1984, after the company created the GI Joe toys in 1964.

In addition, both franchises had very popular cartoons in the 1980's: Transformers (aka Transformers: Generation 1) debuted in 1984 and ended its original run in 1987. Furthermore, the original G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero debuted in the US in 1983 and ended its first run in 1986, before a newer series debuted three years later.

The GI Joe 3 is expected to arrive in US theaters in 2016, but the official release date has not been confirmed by Paramount as of yet.
