Snake Eyes is ready for battle in a slew of intense new photos from the upcoming G.I. Joe Origins film. These CBR-exclusive stills highlight several key characters from the franchise, including Storm Shadow, Baroness, Scarlett and -- of course -- Snake Eyes himself.
Additionally, CBR can exclusively reveal that Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins will kick off this year's Comic-Con International with a panel on Wednesday, July 21 at 1 pm PT.

Out of the eight exclusive photos, Henry Golding's Snake Eyes takes center stage in three of them. In one, he engages in a staredown with Storm Shadow (Andrew Koji), while Hard Master (Iko Uwais) and Blind Master (Peter Mensah) flank him on either side. In another, he stands beside Samara Weaving's Scarlett, his sword extended toward some unseen opponent. The final still finds him drawing back his sword to strike someone sitting in the chair before him.
The subsequent photos offer a closer look at the rest of the main cast. One still sees Storm Shadow standing alone, glancing off to one side. Another shows Akiko backed into an alley, with several bodies littering the ground behind her. Hard Master takes a defensive stance in one, as several other men brandish their weapons behind him. In another, Takehiro Hira's rain-soaked Kenta crouches in the ominous red glow of a neon sign. Finally, Baroness (Úrsula Corberó) takes aim with a smirk.
According to the official synopsis for Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins,

Upon arrival in Japan, the Arashikage teach Snake Eyes the ways of the ninja warrior while also providing something he’s been longing for: a home. But, when secrets from his past are revealed, Snake Eyes’ honor and allegiance will be tested -- even if that means losing the trust of those closest to him.
