Haywire – The First Five Minutes

January 11, 2012 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


I don’t know why more films don’t put the first five minutes online ahead of the release, as it’s a good way for people to be able to tell whether they want to see more (which is probably why a lot of rubbish movies don’t do it). Steven Soderbergh’s new film, Haywire, hits UK cinemas next Wednesday, and the opening has now popped up online, showing that it’s all action from the get-go! Here’s the synopsis: ‘Mallory Kane (newcomer Gina Carano) is a highly trained operative who works for a government security contractor in the dirtiest, most dangerous corners of the world. After successfully freeing a Chinese journalist held hostage, she is double crossed and left for dead by someone close to her in her own agency. Suddenly the target of skilled assassins who knew her every move, Mallory must find the truth in order to stay alive.’ The movie also stars Michael Douglas, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Antonio Banderas and Channing Tatum.

Channing Tatum Gets Side Effects

January 10, 2012 By Movie Muser Leave a Comment

After Steven Soderbergh’s plans to make The Man From UNCLE fell through, he quickly moved to replace it with a movie called The Side Effects. With the director hoping to start shooting in April, he’s now starting to cast the film, with Blake Lively, Jude Law, and Channing Tatum have joined the cast of The Side Effects (previously known as The Bitter Pill) for director Steven Soderbergh, according to ThePlaylist.

The story centres on Emily Hawkins (Blake Lively), a young woman who becomes dependent on prescription drugs out of fear her husband will be released from prison soon. Channing Tatum will play the husband, and Jude Law will portray Emily’s new therapist. Doesn’t sounds like a barrel of laughs but could be interesting.

Steven Soderbergh is directing from a screenplay by Scott Z. Burns (Contagion).

Tatum, McConaughey & Pettyfer Prepare To Strip Down In First Pic From Magic Mike

December 27, 2011 By Movie Muser Leave a Comment


If you like male celebrity skin, you’re gonna be happy with Magic Mike, which sees the likes of Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey and Matthew Bomer playing strippers, all based on Tatum’s days as a young man taking his clothes off for cash!

Warner has released the first image from the Steven Soderbergh movie, which sees Tatum as Mike, an experienced stripper who takes a young dancer called The Kid (Alex Pettyfer) under his wing and schools him in the fine arts of partying, picking up women, and making easy money. McConaughey, who’s looking oddly patriotic in the image above, plays a slightly older stripper who now owns his own club. It’s due out in June.

BGPS’s Advent Calendar Of Buff Blokes: Day 20 – Channing Tatum

December 20, 2011 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

With a past as a nude model and stripper, it’s not that surprising Channing Tatum has no problem taking his shirt off – and that’s certainly good news for us. I was spoilt for choice in selecting hot shots of the actor for the gallery below.

Since his early days in Supercross and Coach Carter, he’s become quite the star thanks to Fighting, Step Up, G.I. Joe, Dear John and The Eagle. However it’s 2012 that we’ve really got to look forward to, when he’ll be reliving his stripper days in Magic Mike, alongside Matthew McConaughey, Alex Pettyfer and Matt Bomer. It’s inspired by Tatum’s days taking his clothes off for cash, as personally I can’t wait.

While like pretty much every male star, there have been rumours Tatum is gay, he’s a married man, although obviously not worried that some men may enjoy ogling him. Click on the pics below to enjoy the magnificence that is Channing Tatum. [Read more…]

New Posters: 21 Jump Street

December 20, 2011 By Movie Muser Leave a Comment


New posters have popped up online for some of next year’s movie, so take a look above and below for new shots from 21 Jump Street, Mirror Mirror and Cosmopolis.

Although 21 Jump Street is loosely based on the 1980s Johnny Depp TV series of the same name, it’s a far more comic take on concept. It sees Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum as a pair of underachieving cops who are sent back to a local high school to blend in and bring down a drug ring. The poster above is fairly generic, but it ain’t bad. The film’s out March 16th. (Image via Moviefone)


The trailer for Mirror Mirror was pretty dreadful, but these two posters aren’t bad. Directed by Tarsem, the film is a comic take on the Snow White legend starring Lily Collins, Julia Roberts, Armie Hammer and Nathan Lane. It’s due to his cinemas on March 16th.


Finally, this rather brooding poster for Cosmopolis has appeared over at CosmopolisFilm.com. David Cronenberg’s take on Don De Lillo’s novel stars Robert Pattinson as young billionaire Eric Packer (Pattinson) who starts out just wanting to get a haircut, but as the day progresses, he must deal with the fallout from the decisions he’s made in his life. The film’s out in 2012.

G.I. Joe: Retaliation Trailer – Channing Tatum’s back

December 13, 2011 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


G.I. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra got pilloried by many people, but it actually made a fair amount of cash. So while Paramount was keen to continue the franchise, it appears they also wanted to start over a little as well – or at least that’s what this trailer suggests. Going for a less flashly silly style than the first film, this looks like it’ll be more grounded and action-packed. It’s actually kind of interesting though that Channing Tatum’s Duke seems to be slightly sidelined in favour of introducing Dwayne Johnson as Roadblock and Bruce Willis as the original GI Joe, as well as showing off some spectacular Snake Eyes fighting. The film June 22nd, but enjoy the trailer.

The Vow Trailer

November 21, 2011 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


The Vow wants to be the Valentine’s romance of 2012, with Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams as a newlywed couple who get into a car accident, which ends up with the wife in coma. When she wakes up, she has amnesia that stretches back several years, so while she remembers her family, she has no memory of the man who recently became her huband – so he sets out to woo her once again. Although it sounds rather contrived, it’s actually based on the true story of Kim and Krickitt Carpenter, whose car was hit from behind by a fast moving truck in 1993. Take a look at the new trailer and decide for yourself whether this will be romantic or just incredibly cloying.

Channing Tatum To Be Man From UNCLE?

November 15, 2011 By Movie Muser Leave a Comment

Another day, another person rumoured to be be replacing George Clooney in Steven Soderbergh’s planned Man From UNCLE movie. According to Deadline, after rumours emerged recently about Bradley Cooper and Ryan Gosling, the director is now eyeing Channing Tatum to star in the movie.

Tatum hasn’t officially been offered the role yet, but the director and actor having just been working together on the film Magic Mike, so they already have a relationship to build on.

Interestingly, Deadline also give the reason Clooney dropped out. Many were surprised George bailed as he’d been involved with the film for years (he was the one who brought Soderbergh on board), but  apparently it’s because he’s due to have surgery and wouldn’t have be able to handle the stunt work.

The 60s TV show the film is based on revolves around two agents for the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement (U.N.C.L.E) – Napoleon Solo and his Russian counterpart, Illya Kuryakin, who are committed to saving the world from the evil forces of the Technological Hierarchy for the Removal of Undesirables and the Subjugation of Humanity (T.H.R.U.S.H.). They were played by Robert Vaughn and David McCallum in the original show.

Scott Z. Burns (World War Z) is on scripting duties, with Soderbergh keen to keep the classic 60s setting of the TV show. The movie is expected to go into production early next year, so they need to find actors for the two main roles pretty soon.

21 Jump Street Red Band Trailer

November 3, 2011 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The 80s TV show 21 Jump Street shot Johnny Depp to fame, and now Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum are bringing their take on the premise with a new movie version. The comedy sees Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) and join the police force and the secret Jump Street unit, where they use their youthful appearances to go undercover in a local high school. As they trade in their guns and badges for backpacks, Schmidt and Jenko risk their lives to investigate a violent and dangerous drug ring. However, they find that high school is nothing like they left it just a few years earlier ­and neither expects that they will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind. It’s due in UK cinemas March 16th.

Channing Tatum May Be A Foxcatcher

October 22, 2011 By Movie Muser Leave a Comment

For several years, Capote director Bennett Miller has been working on the movie Foxcatcher, but he got rather sidelined making Moneyball. Now that movie is out of the way, he’s back on Foxcatcher and recently attached Steve Carell to the lead role. Now the LA Times reports that Channing Tatum may be joining him in the movie. No deal has been signed as yet, but Tatum is apparently in talks.

Based on a true story Carell will play John Du Pont, heir to the Du Pont family, who was convicted of murdering his friend, Olympic Gold Medal winning wrestler, David Schultz – the role that Channing Tatum is up for. No motive was ever established, which may be because Du Pont was diagnosed with schizophrenia, so it was all in his own head. After the shooting, Du Pont then holed himself up in his mansion for two days while negotiating with the police. Indeed it’s the mansion and farm that give the movie its name, suggesting the film will concentrate on this bit of the multimillionaire’s life.

Miller is currently getting the final pieces of financing sorted for the film, with the hope he’ll be able to start shooting early next year.
