AS SEEN ON TV: Watch Channing Tatum’s ‘She’s the Man’ on ABC Tomorrow!!!
June 18, 2010
If you haven’t seen Channing Tatum’s only comedy to date (until ‘Cheaters‘ hits theaters next year) or would like to see it again, I wanted to let all of his US fans know that ‘She’s the Man‘ will be playing tomorrow (Saturday, June 19, 2010) on ABC at 7:00 pm Central /8:00 pm Eastern. Fans can CLICK HERE to confirm show times in your area.
Here’s what the movie is all about…
A simple case of assumed identity snowballs into a romantic mix-up of epic proportions in director Andy Fickman’s contemporary teen take on William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night.
Viola Hastings (Amanda Bynes) has good reason for wanting to conceal her identity upon arriving at Illyria Prep school, and with her twin brother Sebastian (James Kirk) skirting school in an attempt to break into the London music scene, Viola sees her sibling’s well-timed absence as the perfect opportunity to assume his identity. When Viola is assigned a shared dorm room with campus cool guy Duke (Channing Tatum), her façade slowly begins to crumble as she begins harboring a deep-rooted crush on her unsuspecting new roommate.
The situation begins to take a turn for the worse, however, when Duke reveals his affection towards campus knockout Olivia (Laura Ramsey), who in turn seems increasingly drawn toward the sensitive imposter known as Sebastian. The problem is, the real Sebastian has decided to cut his London trip short, and upon arriving on campus two days earlier than expected, Viola’s elaborately executed ruse hits an unexpected hitch that sends the entire situation spiraling into chaos.
You can check out Channing as he plays Duke Orsino in the hilarious official trailer for ‘She’s the Man’ below:

PICTURES OF THE WEEK: ‘Saints’ Promo Tour Outtakes, Cute Puppy Pics, and Channing America
March 24, 2010
In today’s Pictures of the Week we have outtakes from one of Channing Tatum’s press tours, an adorable pic of one of Chan and wife Jenna Dewan-Tatum’s pups, and fan art that let’s us envision what Chan may have looked like as Captain America.
First up we have some 2006 outtakes submitted by Brazilian fan Abel from a photo shoot Chan did for People Magazine during the ‘A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints‘ press tour in New York City. You can CLICK HERE or on the wallpaper below to check out the rest of the outtakes and the People Magazine article where one of the shots was used.
To see the actor in action, you can also watch an interview People did with Chan at the press junket below…
Up next is yet another blast from the past. We have an adorable 2008 pic of Chan and Jenna’s Alabama-born rescue dog Lulu. Jenna recently posted the pic on the left on PostTheLove.com, and so you know what Lulu looks like now, I added the Halloween 2009 pic on the right. Here’s what Jen had to say about little Lulu…
“…Here is a pic of our dog Lulu when she was a puppy…if this doesn’t open your heart, I don’t know what will! Love u all :)”
If you aren’t a member yet, make sure you join Chan’s site PostTheLove.com and follow both Chan and Jenna’s profiles to see their posts.
In yet another “before and after”…Although Chris Evans is actually going to play the role of Captain America (aka Steve Rogers) in 2011’s ‘The First Avenger: Captain America’, TheActionRoom.com photoshopped this photo from ‘Dear John‘…
…to make the image below so we could see what Chan may have looked like as the superhero…
Big thanks to Abel for submitting the great outtakes! If you have a favorite picture from this blog, our photo gallery, a picture you have made or a picture that you have found on the net that you would like me to consider, send the picture or a link to the picture to potw@channingtatumunwrapped.com and tell me why you like it. I will post it and your explanation on the blog. If you like or don’t like today’s picture (for some completely insane reason), let everyone know that too by clicking on the comments link below.

VIDEOS OF THE WEEK: ‘Dear John’ Press Tour and ‘Step Up’ Favorites
February 19, 2010
Most of today’s Videos of the Week are related to Channing Tatum’s highly successful new movie ‘Dear John‘, which released in the US, Canada, and a few other countries on February 5th, just released in South Africa today, and has a sneak preview in Indonesia this weekend before it’s official February 25th debut in that country.
We also have a video that was submitted by Fabulous Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum fan Trecia T., and it’s an oldie, but goodie, from their ‘Step Up’ days. Enjoy!
First up, we have what is hands downs my #1 favorite interview that Chan and co-star Amanda Seyfried did during the ‘Dear John’ press tour.
It was done on the Toronto leg of the tour, and you may recognize interviewer Jessi Cruickshank from “The Hills”, “The City”, and “Laguna Beach” after shows on MTV. I’ve learned that you can always count on Jessi for a laugh, and this interview was no different…
One of the questions I see most often from fans is “What is that song in the ‘Dear John’ trailer?”. As most of you now know, the main song in the trailer is Snow Patrol’s “Set the Fire to the Third Bar” featuring Martha Wainwright. The film released a music video for the song with footage of Chan and Amanda from the movie. Fans can watch it below…
After Chan’s hilarious Chelsea Lately interview, he headed on over to Rogue for Jonesy’s Jukebox for a much more laid back interview with Steve Jones, the co-founder of the Sex Pistols (a popular 70’s rock group). Listen in as they talk about Chan’s provocative interview with Chelsea Handler, his love for football, the south, becoming an actor, and everything in between…
In this last ‘Dear John’ video, we have a quick PopSugar report on their coverage of the San Fransisco press tour stop where Chan and Amanda made fans really happy by passing out lots of hugs at the event and where Chan first introduced fans to his new site PostThelove.com.
You even get a glimpse of Chan’s friend and business partner Reid who was there to get footage for the Post The Love “I Love You” video that Chan made for fans to help launch the site (which has well over 6000 thousand members)…
Chan’s press tours have gotten so huge over the past three years, that it’s impossible for me to cover every single interview, but here’s a few more that I thought you might like…
- Soho New York Apple Store Q&A with Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried (Free iTunes Download)
- Y 98.1 in Illinois Radio Interview (MP3)
- Backstage.com Interview: “‘Dear’ Destiny”
- Collider.com Interview: “Channing Tatum Interview DEAR JOHN, Plus Info on Dito Montiel’s SON OF NO ONE and THE EAGLE OF THE NINTH”
- The Finer Dandy Interview: “Channing Tatum is a no-limit soldier…of love”
- Parade.com Interview: “Channing Tatum: ‘I’ve Been Dumped More Times Than I Care to Remember’”
- Vancouver Sun Interview: “Channing Tatum describes how he lost it in Dear John, a movie he insists is not a chick flick”
If you missed any of my articles on the press tour, no worries. You can CLICK HERE to read all of them and HERE to check out hundreds if photos from the entire tour.
Last, but definitely not least, we have the Ciara Featuring Chamillionaire - Get Up music video submitted by fan Trecia, and here’s what she had to say about why she loves this video…
- “I really like this video because well, for obvious reasons, both Channing and Jenna are in it! =D I still remember the first time I’ve ever watched this video. It was when “Step Up” was released back in 06′ and was making a huge splash on Asian shores. Then, one day, while I was flipping through some channels on TV, and I saw this video. I didn’t know who Chan and Jen were back then, and I remember thinking, “oh, who’s that cute guy in the video? And both of them can really dance!”…I almost gave “Step Up” a pass but this video made me change my mind! What with the black outfits and dancing in the rain, they make dancing so damn sexy! So, I watched the film and guess what? I totally fell head over heels in love with it. I bought the DVD and the soundtrack, and you don’t even want to know the number of times I have watched this film. (hint: Its a 2 digit number!) Anyway, all I want to say is, if its not because of this video, I would have missed out on a great film and I won’t be typing this out at this very moment. =)”
BIG thanks to Trecia for your submission!! If you have a favorite video that you would like me to consider, send a link to the video to votw@channingtatumunwrapped.com and tell me why you like it. I will post it and your explanation on the blog.

MOVIE BYTES: ‘Step Up’, ‘The Eagle of the Ninth’, ‘Son of No One’, and ‘Knockout’
February 15, 2010
While Channing Tatum’s newly released romantic drama ‘Dear John‘ continues to do well at the domestic box office (making well-over $53 million in the first week), remains a top topic of conversation on Twitter, and begins to release overseas, his numerous other projects continue to march on.
I found a few bits of news about Chan’s past and future films ‘Step Up‘ , ‘Eagle of the Ninth‘, ‘Son of No One‘, and ‘Knockout‘ this past week. Check out today’s Movie Bytes to get the latest scoop. Enjoy!!!
STEP UP
Channing Tatum’s and Jenna Dewan-Tatum’s 2006 dance hit will premiere on ABC Family this week. Since the two tied the knot last July, we all now know for sure that the sparks between Chan and Jenna weren’t just acting. Although they didn’t start dating until after the film wrapped, fan’s can watch the two fall in love for real on Sunday, February 21 at 8:30/7:30 Central. You can also CLICK HERE for more details.
EAGLE OF THE NINTH
In addition to the official Facebook page, Focus Pictures just launched an official site, announced a release date, and released the first trailer (which plays before ‘Dear John‘) for Channing Tatum’s Roman drama ‘The Eagle of the Ninth‘.
For those who don’t know, the movie is helmed by award-winning director Kevin Macdonald and is based on the best-selling, classic 1954 teen novel by Rosemary Sutcliff, and is set in the dangerous world of second-century Britain.
In 140 AD, twenty years after the unexplained disappearance of the entire Ninth Legion in the mountains of Scotland, young centurion Marcus Aquila (played by Channing) arrives from Rome to solve the mystery and restore the reputation of his father, the commander of the Ninth. Accompanied only by his British slave Esca (Jamie Bell), Marcus sets out across Hadrian’s Wall into the uncharted highlands of Caledonia - to confront its savage tribes, make peace with his father’s memory, and retrieve the lost legion’s golden emblem, the Eagle of the Ninth. Donald Sutherland portrays Marcus’ uncle Aquila, who has retired in Britain; Mark Strong is cast as Guern, an ex-soldier who holds crucial information about the Ninth.
Make sure you fan the Facebook page to get the latest photos, videos, and scoop on the film, which is now set to hit theaters in September 24, 2010. Fans can also CLICK HERE to see even more photos from the film in the CTU Photo Gallery.
SON OF NO ONE
Deadline Hollywood is reporting that Channing Tatum’s dramatic thriller ‘Son of No One‘ just acquired a new distributor overseas. Here’s what Deadline Hollywood’s founder and editor Nikki Finke had to say about the film’s status and casting…
“Channing Tatum’s weekend success in Dear John comes at an auspicious time, as Nu Image takes over world sales agent duties in Berlin on what it says is his Son Of No One. Though UTA says there’s no deal yet with its client, Channing is the draw in a drama that reunites him with writer/director Dito Montiel, with whom he made Fighting and A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints. The Montiel-scripted thriller is about a young cop who is at odds with his superiors and fellow officers over a murder cover-up. NuImage says Tatum’s co-stars would be Katie Holmes, Terrence Howard, Ray Liotta and Al Pacino. Shooting begins April in New York. Hannibal Pictures put the pic together, with Millennium Films as producer.”
In a recent Collider.com interview, Chan had this to say about the film when asked if his next Dito Montiel film was totally different from ‘A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints’…
“It’s Saints-esque really. It’s like the grown-up “Saints.” Where “Saints” focused in on the kids, it’ll be flip-flopped. It’ll be focused on adults this time with kids as well. Look, that guy’s lived a crazy life and he’s known a lot of crazy people and this will be a true story or pieces of it, and it’ll be insane - (Robert) DeNiro, Ray Liotta, I don’t know if Terrence Howard is going to be in it, I think he might, and a bunch of other people with some really strong personalities coming in. It’s like a psycho cop New York thriller and it’ll be Dito-esque again. With “Fighting,” we just tried to go and do something fun, and then this is him going back and swinging for the fence again into his crazy mind. It’s an independent film so he’ll be allowed to do whatever he wants.”
‘Son of No One‘ is currently scheduled to be released in 2011.
KNOCKOUT
As Chan posted in his Post The Love Valentine’s Day message to fans, he’s headed off to Dublin, Ireland to shoot Steven Soderbergh’s action-revenge spy thriller ‘Knockout‘. In case you missed it, here’s Chan V-Day message to fans…
“My love goes out all this beautiful day of love!! So sorry I’ve been gone for the last few days. Things have been crazy with the film and I had to get ready to go to dublin for a new job. that will take me away from the ones I love in my life. Especially my wife, sorry baby. Anyways I will be post more soon. Love you guys.”
The movie will star Mixed Martial Arts champion and non-actor Gina Carano in the lead role as a black ops spy that is betrayed by her team. Chan (who will also film some of ‘Knockout‘ in Barcelona, Spain) will play one of the elite specialists on Carano’s team named Aaron — a military gearhead-type who’s sent to try and bring her back in once she’s been double-crossed and gone rogue; trying to figure out who exactly is setting her up. But there is no love lost between the characters which makes his mission more difficult.
The movie also stars Ewan McGregor, Michael Douglas, and Michael Fassbender and is scheduled to hit theaters some time in 2010 or 2011.

In today’s Videos of the Week, we have a new interview that ‘Step Up‘ gals Jenna Dewan-Tatum, Briana Evigan, and Sharni Vinson (who you see in the above photo taken by director Jon M. Chu with Channing Tatum in the background) did backstage with Chris Trondsen of Pacific Rim Video at the Dizzy Feet Foundation charity gala. Nichelle Thrower of the dance crew We Are Heroes also joins in the conversation before the girls go onstage at the Koday Theater in Hollywood to perform this past Sunday.
