CHANNING TATUM FOR NEWBIES… The ‘DEAR JOHN’ Edition
October 14, 2010
Earlier this year, Channing Tatum kicked off the ‘Dear John’ press tour with a press junket in Los Angeles. I love the junkets, because in addition to hanging out with Chan (which you see in the pic above), Jenna, and the other actors, I get to learn a ton about the films first hand that I can share with you all here on CTU…
In today’s ‘Dear John‘-inspired Channing Tatum for Newbies, you all get your answers “first hand”, because Chan is answering some of your most frequently asked questions. Enjoy!!!
Question:
Have you read “Dear John”?
Chan’s Answer:
Yes
Question:
What’s your favorite scene?
Chan’s Answer:
My favorite scene and the hardest scene to film was the barn scene where John and Savanna see each other for the first time again.
Question:
What attracted you to the role of John?
Chan’s Answer:
There aren’t that many amazing love stories seen through the guy’s point of view, so I thought this was a really interesting opportunity.
Question:
Are you a Nicholas Sparks fan?
Chan’s Answer:
Nicholas Sparks’ work is very beautiful, but this story also has an edge to it that some of the other books didn’t have. I figured it would be a lot of fun to do something a little softer, a little more quite - just sitting and acting for once.
Question:
What is harder…action or drama?
Chan’s Answer:
Action is harder. In emotional scenes, it’s easier to know if you got there or not. I think about losing someone I love.
Question:
Did you meet Nicholas Sparks?
Chan’s Answer:
Yes
Question:
What’s it like to work with Amanda Seyfried?
Chan’s Answer:
Loved it! She’s talented, hilarious, sweet, quirky, witty, cute, nuts, and has he voice of an angel. She brought a sense of irony and humor to the role.
Question:
Does Amanda Seyfried have a twitter?
Chan’s Answer:
She does not.
Question:
What’s it like to work with Henry Thomas?
Chan’s Answer:
Henry might be the best surprise of the movie. He’s such a brilliantly grounded, gentle person, like Lasse.
Question:
What did you like about working with Lasse?
Chan’s Answer:
He has a soft, beautiful energy and gave us the freedom to explore our roles and improvise.
Question:
What’s it like to work with Braeden Reed?
Chan’s Answer:
He is amazing. He was an actor from ‘jump’.
Question:
Do you surf?
Chan’s Answer:
I’m from Florida, but I’ve never been a surfer. I’m totally addicted to it now. I own two boards and surfed on weekends while shooting.
Question:
Where was the movie filmed?
Chan’s Answer:
In the Charleston, SC area. (Sullivan’s Island, Isle of Palms, Folly Beach, College of Charleston, Edisto’s Cassina Point Plantation)
Question:
Did you like filming in Charleston?
Chan’s Answer:
Yes. I love the South. Loved the history and the food.
Question:
Have you ever written a love letter?
Chan’s Answer:
When I was in second grade, my sister Paige said I sent love letters to her friends. In the past few years, I’ve realized that I really like writing.
Question:
What your biggest romantic gesture?
Chan’s Answer:
I had Jenna’s roommate pack clothes for her and surprised her with a trip when we first started dating.
Question:
Is ‘Dear John’ a war movie?
Chan’s Answer:
No. ‘Dear John’ is really all about relationships, first love, and the love between a son and his father.
Question:
What kind of training did you do for the film?
Chan’s Answer:
John is a Green Beret, a member of the US Army’s Special Forces. Although the focus truly is the love story, we had training with special forces soldiers.
Question:
Is it difficult to film love scenes?
Chan’s Answer:
They are hard and very awkward. You just have to have a sense of humor about them.
Question:
Favorite part about doing the film?
Chan’s Answer:
Locations and the cast
Question:
Why would guys want to see this film?
Chan’s Answer:
The father/son story is something that the guys can relate to and the fact that it’s an untraditional love story. The story has a surprising edge to it.
Question:
‘Dear John’ is such an emotional story. Are those types of roles difficult?
Chan’s Answer:
There was a moment during the shooting of Dear John when Chan lost control of his emotions in front of the camera. What happened was that after several takes, Richard Jerkins (who played Chan’s character’s ailing father) spontaneously lifted a hand and touched his son. It was the simplest of gestures but it provided a powerful moment on set — and subsequently on screen. Here’s what he had to say about the scene and working with Richard…
There’s nothing he can’t do. He’ll come off the bench and give you an award-winning performance. He really helped me in that scene. You have a plan for an emotional scene, but you don’t know how it’s going to go. You hope you don’t get in your own head too much and that you have an idea of what you’re going to do — and then something happens, with your partner, the person you’re doing the scene with, and that changes things. It just took me apart. I get emotional now thinking about it because it ripped me open. And…I owe him that scene…I went from ‘G.I. Joe’ to ‘Dear John’. It’s definitely more difficult to come down off of emotional roles than the roles in action films.
Question:
What’s the most romantic thing that someone can do for you?
Chan’s Answer:
Cook me dinner and watch a movie.
Question:
What’s your next movie?
Chan’s Answer:
I’m currently filming a romantic drama called ‘The Vow‘ with Rachel McAdams in Toronto and the comedy ‘The Dilemma‘ with Vince Vaughn and Kevin James will be released in January.
Question:
If you were a soldier, would you be able to leave?
Chan’s Answer:
First and foremost, being a soldier is a sacrifice in itself. If I had to make the choices they make, it would be very difficult to leave.
Question:
Do you remember your first love?
Chan’s Answer:
Sara Cook in Kindergarten. I bought her the Sara Smiles record.
Question:
What’s your ultimate day off?
Chan’s Answer:
Relaxation…Wake up late, order in, watch a good movie, play with my dogs, watch another movie, spend time with those I love
Question:
How similar are you to John?
Chan’s Answer:
We’re both southern boys, got into fair share of trouble, and are hopeless romantics. I’d say I’m 67% John.
Question:
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?
Chan’s Answer:
Places that are closest to everyone I love and that are easy to get to…Alabama, Brazil/Costa Rica, Colorado in the Mountains
Question:
Who are your favorite actors?
Chan’s Answer:
Jackie Gleason and Paul Newman
Question:
What’s your favorite movie(s)?
Chan’s Answer:
‘Goonies’, ‘Hustler’
Question:
Did you always want to act?
Chan’s Answer:
No. I figured out I wanted to act around age 23 or 24. I went from dancing to modeling to commercials to movies.
Question:
Do you keep momentos from your sets?
Chan’s Answer:
I generally will keep the last outfit I wear from each set.

MOVIE BYTES: ‘Earth Made of Glass’, ‘Son of No One’, and ‘Dear John’
September 10, 2010
This past week, I found a few bits of news about Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum’s current and upcoming film projects ‘Earth Made of Glass‘, ‘Dear John‘, and ‘Son of No One‘. Enjoy!!!
EARTH MADE OF GLASS SCREENING
Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum executive produced their first movie via their production company 33&Out this past Spring.
That film is a political documentary called ‘Earth Made of Glass‘, and it follows the moving stories of Rwandan President Paul Kagame and survivor Jean-Pierre Sagahutu as they try to help heal their genocide ravished country.
The film recently screened at Dartmouth, and had an Oscar-qualifying run in LA and New York, and now, fans in San Fransisco will have an opportunity to watch the documentary too!
‘Earth Made of Glass‘ will be showing at the Landmark Embarcadero Theater on September 30th . Director Deborah Scranton will also have a Q&A with the audience after the special screening.
Fans can CLICK HERE to get your tickets and stay tuned to CTU for even more amazing news that will tell you how many more fans will soon be able to see this great film!!
SON OF NO ONE ON NETFLIX
Netflix and Nu Image/Millennium Films just announced a long-term agreement to stream first-run theatrical films to Netflix members, and Channing Tatum’s dramatic thriller ‘Son of No One‘, which once again partners him with ‘A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints‘ director Dito Montiel, is included in the deal…
“First-run theatrical films distributed by the Nu Image/Millennium Group will be licensed to Netflix for streaming over the Internet to its subscribers during the “pay TV window.” Historically, these films have been licensed to premium TV channels…Among the first films to be covered under the deal is Dito Montiel’s 2011 scheduled release ‘Son of No One’”
For those who don’t know, ‘Son of No One‘ is about a young cop (played by Chan) who is assigned to a precinct in the working class neighborhood where he grew up, and an old secret threatens to destroy his life and his family. The star-studded cast also includes Katy Holmes (who plays Chan’s character’s wife), Tracy Morgan, Ray Liotta, Juliette Binoche and Al Pacino. CLICK HERE to get a more detailed synopsis of the film.
‘Son of No One‘ was shot in New York City this past Spring, and fans can CLICK HERE to check out tons of photos from the film set in the CTU Photo Gallery.
DEAR JOHN ON FX
Channing Tatum’s romantic drama ‘Dear John‘ was released on DVD, Blu-ray, and OnDemand last May. The next step is for the film to be released on television, and thanks to Deadline Hollywood, we now know which network has won Sony’s bidding war…
FX has acquired the TV rights to ‘Dear John‘, which is part of a five-movie package deal with Sony Pictures TV that also includes ‘The Other Guys’, ‘Takers’, the urban comedy ‘Death at a Funeral’ and the Jennifer Aniston-Gerard Butler action comedy ‘The Bounty Hunter’. They join a slew of other top summer/spring movies that FX previously picked up, including ‘Iron Man 2′, ‘Shrek Forever After’, ‘How To Train Your Dragon’, ‘The Twilight Saga: Eclipse’, ‘Date Night’, and Sony’s ‘Salt’, ‘Grown Ups’ and ‘The Karate Kid’.
As you probably already know, ‘Dear John‘ tells the story of John (Channing Tatum), a young soldier home on leave and Savannah Curtis (Amanda Seyfried), the idealistic college student he meets during her spring vacation. It’s based on a Nicholas Sparks’ best-selling book, helmed by Lasse Hallström, written by Jamie Linden, and wrapped filming in the Charleston, South Carolina area in December of 2008.
Fans can check out tons of photos from the film in the CTU Photo Gallery and can watch trailers and cast interviews on CTU’s Youtube channel.
‘Dear John‘ was recently released on DVD in France, Spain, and the UK, and will be released on DVD in Germany (where it’s called ‘Das Leuchten der Stille‘) on October 21st. CLICK HERE to view future release dates for other countries.

Yahoo Movies Picks Channing Tatum’s ‘Dear John’ for BEST KISS
July 23, 2010
Yahoo Movies took a look at some of the best movies of the year so far, and they have picked Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried’s rain-soaked lip lock in ‘Dear John‘ as the winner in their “Best Kiss” category.
If you’ve seen it, then I’m sure you understand why. Here’s what Yahoo had to say about why Chan and Amanda’s kiss is the clear winner…
“…the first kiss shared by stars Amanda Seyfried and Channing Tatum, who portray Savannah and John, a college student and a young Army sergeant who fall madly in love with one another over spring break. A few days before John returns to base and deploys for the Middle East, he and Savannah realize that they’re meant to be together once he visits her at her volunteer worksite. When the sky opens and heavy rains begin to soak them, they seek shelter in each other’s arms, and before you know it, they’re entangled in a passionate embrace and share one of Hollywood’s most romantic kisses.”
Fans didn’t get a vote in Yahoo’s contest, BUT you do get to vote every day through August 6th for Chan and Amanda for this year’s Teen Choice Awards.
