In an interview with AllHipHop Marlon Wayans said that he never pulled the race card. Immediately after that, he pulled the race card when discussing why his character wasn’t asked to continue on in the next installment of GI Joe:

“The last one they realized the black guy [Damon’s character Ripcord] was the hero of the movie. So, they said ‘You know what? We’re going to do the sequel just so we can fix that. Let’s kill the black guy’.”
