Snake Eyes Release Date And Where You Can Watch It
TheSnake Eyesrelease date is set forJuly 23, 2021. It’s a theatrical release – but remember: theatrical windows are shorter now.

That has yet to be confirmed by Paramount, though. But it’s something to keep an eye on.
What is Snake Eyes?
Snake Eyesis a 1998 thriller from director Brian De Palma, starring Nicolas Cage. Oh, no, my mistake. That’s a differentSnake Eyes. ThisSnake Eyesis the latest entry in theG.I. Joefilm franchise. In fact, its full title isSnake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins, but we all know no one is going to call it that.G.I. Joehasn’t been as successful at the box office as the other huge Paramount toy-inspired franchise,Transformers. And since Hollywood never, ever gives up on a potential franchise, they’re trying this again, makingSnake Eyesboth a prequel movie and a reboot of theG.I. Joefilm series. While the film has multiple characters fromG.I. Joemythology, the main focus is on ninja Snake Eyes, played in the pic byHenry Golding. Traditionally, Snake Eyes is completely silent and never takes off his mask. But that sort of thing doesn’t fly when you have a handsome guy like Henry Golding in the role, so this film is set before the character adopted his silent ninja persona.
