IN THE PRESS | Channing Tatum in Details, Instyle, Entertainment Weekly, Intouch, and OK Magazine

Channing Tatum is all over the magazines lately, the most I've honestly ever seen in a single week. Fans can find Chan in the latest issues of Details (February 2010), Instyle (February 2010), Entertainment Weekly (January 22nd) for both 'Dear John' and 'Eagle of the Ninth', Intouch (January 25th), AND OK (January 25th) magazine, and you can check out all the high quality scans for each on today's post in the CTU Photo Gallery.

In addition to being featured in the print magazine, Chan and his upcoming movie 'Eagle of the Ninth' were also featured on Entertainment Weekly's website this week. Here's EW's first look at 'Eagle'...

"...EW chatted with Tatum last week about the movie in question, The Eagle of the Ninth, which Focus Features will release this fall. “It’s almost like an old western, like The Searchers,” Tatum said, while pointing out that the film’s still very much an epic in the tradition of Gladiator and Braveheart. “Are you going to get big, huge battles and things you’d expect in an epic? Yeah, absolutely. But it’s smarter than just a big epic. It’s more of a personal, relationship story about these two guys that have to go on this journey together.”

Tatum plays Marcus Aquila, a Roman army officer in 140 A.D. whose father was the commander of the legendary Ninth Legion — a unit of soldiers that mysteriously disappeared 20 years earlier in the mountains of present-day Scotland while trying to conquer the region’s various Celtic tribes. For Aquila, the legion’s presumed defeat has brought considerable shame to the family, so he decides to embark on a quest into those northern tribal lands in hopes of learning exactly what happened to his dad. Accompanying Aquila is his British slave Esca, played by Jamie Bell (King Kong, Billy Elliot). “They’re really just two broken, lonely people,” said Tatum. “They welcome death, and then they find a reason to live and a purpose and honor through this journey.”

The Eagle of the Ninth is directed by Scottish filmmaker and documentarian Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland, Touching the Void), so naturally the movie was shot in Scotland for maximum authenticity. And with authenticity comes extreme weather conditions. “Scotland might have been one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen, but it hated us,” Tatum confessed. “I have never imagined conditions like this. You’d look around the set and all you could see would be two inches in front of you. It was raining every single day, and Jamie and I would be on the back of a horse, freezing and soaked to the bone. When you see us cold and tired and shivering in the movie, none of that’s acting!”..."

'Eagle of the Ninth' is scheduled to hit theaters this summer! Fans can check out photos from the film in the CTU Photo Gallery, and you can CLICK HERE to get the latest news on the movie.

Finally, you can find all of the magazines I mentioned above on newsstands right now, so make sure to run out and get your copies!!!

IN THE PRESS & ON LOCATION: Jenna Dewan in US Weekly and in Scotland with Channing Tatum

Jenna Dewan is featured in this week's US Weekly magazine for an outfit she wore to the Nylon Magazine TV issue launch party this past August. If you remember some of my previous posts, this isn't the first time Jenna's fashion choice for this particular event has been spotlighted (i.e. FabSugar and People Magazine).

You can check out my latest obsession (a pair of L.A.M.B. Rasta Boots that I recently tweeted about and have added to my X-mas wish list), Channing Tatum's adorable wife, and her trend-setting over-the-knee boots in US Weekly's October 19, 2009 issue below...

Jen is actually in Scotland right now visiting Chan as he films his Roman epic 'Eagle of the Ninth' in Achiltibuie, near Ullapool. They started shooting key scenes for the film on Wednesday and will reportedly continue to shoot in the area through Monday.

The weather has been pretty bad recently and Jenna confirms that fact and her love for Chan in a recent tweet...

"Im with Chan as he is filming on top of a mountain in Scotland,20 min muddy hike to get to set,it's freezing and raining..this is true love!"

There have been reports that the production team will also be using 3 locations within the Coigach area of Scotland...Fox Point (near Dornie Harbor overlooking the Summer Isles), Achnahaird and Loch Lurigan.

'The Eagle of the Ninth' 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.

Chan's 'The Eagle of the Ninth' won't hit theaters until some time in 2010, but Jenna's fans can pick up a copy of this week's US Weekly on newsstands now!!!

IN THE PRESS: Jenna Dewan Wins US Weekly's "Who Wore It Best?"

I opened this week's US Weekly Magazine (August 10, 2009 issue) and was excited to see that Jenna Dewan is featured in the "Who Wore It Best?" article.

After the mag polled 100 people in New York's Rockefeller Center, Jen ran away with a fashion win against Denise Richards and Tori Spelling in a cute little ruffle party dress by Yoana Baraschi.

This was one of the many outfits that Jenna tried on in Shop Intuition prior to accompanying new hubby Channing Tatum on his huge, world-wide G.I. Joe press tour.

Thanks to CTU reader Sonia, we have a few more pics of Jenna as she tries on outfits at the shop. You can check out some of them in the wallpaper below...

IN THE PRESS: Channing Tatum and CTU Featured in July 2009 Italian Vogue

Channing Tatum's action movie 'Fighting' was released in South Africa and Iceland on July 24th and is scheduled to hit theaters in Italy some time this month too.

To celebrate the Italian release of the film, Vogue Italia interviewed Chan for an article in their July 2009 issue, which is currently on newsstands all around the world. In an unusual twist, they also interviewed me for Chan's article to learn about CTU and Chan's fans and requested a couple of CTU graphics I made for possible use in the article.

In the recent past, CTU graphics have been used in an Australian online magazine and on various websites, but this is the first time that a major publication has requested an interview and wanted to use a graphic, so I was really excited about the request.

I didn't know if they would use any of the material or not until I received three copies of the magazine from Vogue and opened up the issue. I can't even explain how cool it was to see my graphic used in the article!!!

More importantly, I can't speak or read a lick of Italian, but could clearly understand the "Foto Q of ChanningTatumUnwrapped.com" photo credit in the right margin of the article. Needless to say, it's a proud moment for me and CTU. You can check out the article for yourself below, and if you happen to read Italian, feel free to share your thoughts of the article...

'Fighting' (aka 'Hai! Ne Batem!') will next hit theaters in Romania on July 31, 2009.

In other news...Through the grapevine, I heard yesterday that Chan may be promoting his film 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' on Jimmy Fallon on August 4th. Stay tuned for more details...

IN THE PRESS: Channing Tatum Featured in August 2009 Elle & June 2009 Vanidades Magazines

In case you missed it, Channing Tatum has been featured in no less than four major magazines in the last month and has even scored his first major cover.

We started our jaunt down magazine lane with Chan's retro shoot in Vanity Fair (August 2009) and next we all got to see him and his six pack in the Mario Testino shoot for GQ (August 2009), and now we can add both Elle (August 2009) and Vanidades (June 16, 2009) to Chan's growing list of magazine credits.

You can read both the Elle and Vanidades articles below. Truth be told, I don't speak enough Spanish to decipher the Vanidades article easily, but if any of you readers would like to take that project on, your efforts would be greatly appreciated.

On the Elle front, Chan has been chosen as this month's Elle Man. In what has now become my all-time favorite quote from Chan in an interview, he tells Elle...

"I just want to get it out there that it was really cold in the room."

You'll have to read the new article for yourself to see exactly what he was referring to. Enjoy...

Here's the Vanidades article...

The August 2009 issues of Elle, Vanity Fair, and GQ and the June 16, 2009 issue of Vanidades are currently on newsstands, so make sure you run out and get your copies today!!!
