“G.I. Joe: Rise Of COBRA” director Stephen Sommers recently told Entertainment Weekley that contrary to a widely-circulated story, he did not insist that actress Sienna Miller’s breasts be enhanced for the live-action film adaptation of the popular toy and cartoon franchise about the secret American military fighting unit called GI Joe ,and their counterparts, the terrorist organization known as COBRA.
According to the article in question, Miller supposed says she “[wears] a tight black leather outfit. And much bigger boobs […] They gave me these things that looked like chicken fillets. The director said, ‘I’m gonna be honest, I like girls with big boobs,’ and I don’t have them so we made them bigger […] At least he’s honest. But I was mildly offended.”
Sommers says he was aware of the story and alleged quote but claims it is untrue. “Everybody here laughed because they know I would NEVER say that to an actress, […] I guess the costume department gave her a tight fitting bra, but no one gave her rubber breasts or whatever. It is 100 percent Sienna Miller.”
Sommers adds that G.I. Joe, which also stars Dennis Quaid and features a cameo from Brendan Fraser, who starred in Sommers’ “Mummy” films, was partially inspired by his love of older “James Bond” films, and says that in “Rise Of COBRA” there is “an underwater battle under the polar icecap that’s Thunderball times 10!”
“G. I. Joe: Rise of COBRA” is in theaters August 7th, 2009.
