![]() ![]() ![]() – and I”m excited to see what else Vaughn has in store for us. I'm about to get all up in that Golden Circle. I love the poster he put up on his Twitter account today – I have no idea what role Tatum”s going to play in next year”s sequel to one of last year”s most engaging surprises. By now, Tatum”s a reliable bellwether for picking smart projects, and while he may still make the occasional Jupiter Ascending, that”s only because he”s ambitious and he likes to work with ambitious filmmakers. Once he started booking the right roles, it was like the scales fell from eyes and I could suddenly see again. We also learned that he wasn”t embarrassed about his past, especially if it could serve to become a film as textured and funny as Magic Mike. For one thing, we learned that Tatum could be funny. But for one guy to star in both of those the same year? Incredible. 21 Jump Street would be a great year for any actor, and so would Magic Mike. He and Tatum started to develop Magic Mike as a script, and in the meantime, Tatum booked the films that changed everything as far as I”m concerned. Tatum”s only got a few scenes in the film, but he makes the most of them, and Soderbergh must have liked what he saw. There were some more misses like The Son Of No One and 10 Years, and then, for whatever reason, he booked a role in Steven Soderbergh”s Haywire, a small fun action spy movie built around Gina Carano. But it does have a scene-stealing appearance by Tatum. Joe: The Rise Of Cobra or The Eagle, I thought his presence actually damaged the overall movie.įor me, the first sign that he might actually be worth paying attention to was The Dilemma, which is not a great film at all. Films like Dear John or Stop-Loss did nothing to change my opinion of Tatum, and in a few cases, like G.I. He was fine in the Step Up films, but that”s because the dancing was front and center. Sometimes I see an actor and immediately like what they”re doing, and when I saw A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints, it was with some early hype about both the director, Dito Montiel, and this amazing new young star, Channing Tatum. I remember the moment Channing Tatum clicked for me. The Charming Potato is joining the cast of Kingsman: The Golden Circle!
