Channing Tatum joins cast of "GI Joe"
I never had a GI Joe as a kid. I'm not sure what that means.
Anyway, hottie Channing Tatum has joined the cast of G.I. Joe: The Movie, according to AICN. He will play Duke, a field commander and second-in-command of the G.I. Joe Team after Hawk. Channing is a former model who has steadily been building up an impressive acting resume with roles in "Step Up," "Coach Carter," and "A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints" The film is scheduled for a summer 2009 release with filming set to begin next month.
Greg Hernandez has covered the entertainment industry for the Daily
News since 2001. He's considered a bit odd by some for his obsession
with box office numbers, has been known to camp out near the kitchen
at premieres for first crack at the hors d'oeurves, and Greg's never
seen a red carpet he didn't want to stroll down.
