About this video
Director Jon M. Chu pays a visit to the Studio to tell us all about making the leap from Justin Bieber's 'Never Say Never' documentary film to the high-octane 'G.I. Joe' sequel, 'Retaliation'! He explains how his childhood love of the G.I. Joe action figures actually inspired scenes for the film and how stars Bruce Willis, Dwayne Johnson, and Channing Tatum also contributed to that process. Plus, find out why he and his cast could be America's Next Best Dance Crew! Hosted by Nikki Novak (@nikkinovak).
