Korea's Brad Pitt in new G.I. Joe

Korean actor Lee Byoung-Hun is starring in the new G.I. Joe film as a sword-wielding bad guy. Lee's character, Storm Shadow, is a martial arts expert for the Cobra team. Storm Shadow's rival on the G.I. Joe team is played by martial artist Ray Park. I figured, 'Great! Another Korean,' but it turns out he's the white actor who played Darth Maul in the horrid Star Wars film, The Phantom Menace.
