MTV recently chatted with Lady Jaye actress Adrianne Palicki, who appears not only in GI Joe Retaliation but a remake of the Cold War-era flick, Red Dawn. Turns out that Palicki was a huge fan of Jinx when she was younger. She also mentions that Retaliation is a reboot:

Palicki: It was a pleasant surprise, because this is a reboot. It's scary going into the shoes that have already been worn. We wanted to do something really unique and special. With such an amazing group of talented actors, you don't want it to fall flat. How many people reached out, it's unbelievable to hear the comments that they're so excited, that the trailer is better than the first movie was. Just really cool reactions that you're going, "OK, hopefully we don't let you down." I really don't think we will. I think it's going to be a really fun ride for everybody.

The cast was able to perform their own stunts, which is definitely right up Snake Eyes actor Ray Park's alley.

Though Jinx was Palicki's favorite, Lady Jaye isn't so bad, though this time around, she won't be sporting some javelins:

MTV: What was the scariest thing you had to do on set?

Palicki: We did have to scale a wall, but after seeing "Mission: Impossible 4," I'm like, "Well, I guess it wasn't that scary." An 18-foot wall compared to a skyscraper. The fun thing is that we get to do a lot of our own stunts.

MTV: Were you a fan of "G.I. Joe" when you were growing up?

Palicki: Oh yeah, definitely. I have a big brother, so anything he liked, I liked. He was super big into comic books, so I was super big into comic books. He was super big into G.I. Joe, and I wanted to be Jinx so badly. I don't know just if it was that she was wearing a red costume or what, but I wanted to be a ninja.

MTV: Were you disappointed to be Lady Jaye then?

Palicki: Lady Jaye's a badass. I couldn't really be disappointed with Lady Jaye. She's the one chick in the boys club. She can hold her own. She doesn't get the staff, but she is a weapons specialist. She has that going for her.
