At CinemaCon, which is being held in Las Vegas, director Jon Chu referred to Johnson as "franchise Viagra" - not a bad way to describe the actor who is lending his star power to more than one franchise these days.

Paramount’s G.I. Joe: Retaliation just got hotter with the release of its latest trailer.

The trailer hit the web with an introduction by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who is starring in the sequel. At Cinema Con, which is being held in Las Vegas, director Jon Chu referred to Johnson as “franchise Viagra” – not a bad way to describe the actor who is lending his star power to more than one franchise these days.

This time around, we get to see more of how Johnson and co-star Bruce Willis will be involved in the film. From the looks of things, now that Cobra has infiltrated the White House, things are going to get messy. From the lack of Channing Tatum after the first 20 seconds of the trailer, things are not looking good for our favorite G.I. Joe. Could this be a big time spoiler or just a ploy to keep fans guessing?

Check out the trailer for yourself and let us know your thoughts in our comments section.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation hits theaters on June 29, 2012!
