CASTING NEWS: Channing Tatum to Star in 'The Darkness'

Channing Tatum has a ton of potential projects in the works, and the horror film site Bloody Disgusting just reported some casting news on a new one. I read this particular news item when they first posted it on July 28th, but wanted to confirm it before I reported it to you all.

I have now confirmed that Chan has indeed signed on to star in 'The Darkness', the latest film from The Pang Brothers Danny Pang Fat and Oxide Pang Chun who directed the Asian and English remakes of 'The Eye' and 'Bangkok Dangerous'. Like Chan's current movie, 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra', the film will also be based on a comic book adaption.

"The Darkness" comic series was created by Marc Silvestri, Garth Ennis and David Wohl, under the Top Cow Productions banner. Ironically, Top Cow is the same comic book company that's associated with Jenna Dewan's 2010 film 'Magdelena'.

Bloody Disgusting says that Chan will play Jackie Estacado, a hitman who “was targeted for assassination by the don of the New York mafia, ‘Uncle’ Paulie. He finds his body possessed by ‘the Darkness,’ a malevolent spirit that has inhabited his family for several generations, with the benefit of giving Jackie supernatural powers that feed off the dark.”

Although the film is currently in the very early stages of development and does not have a release date yet, I still want to say congrats to Chan on landing yet another role!

CTU EXCLUSIVE: Channing Tatum Unwrapped at the Los Angeles Premiere of 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra'

Even I have to admit that my little CTU excursions from behind my computer aren't so little any more. When I go on these trips, I can't help but think back to the humble beginnings of this site, and I also can't help but smile when I think about where we are today. I say "we", because many of you have come along with me through much of this journey by reading about my adventures through the Hollywood dream that is Channing Tatum.

From meeting Chan for the first time on the set of 'Fighting' in 2007 to the 2008 Teen Choice Awards to the 'Fighting' press junket and premiere this year, Chan and his family have allowed me to experience more than I ever imagined and the Los Angeles 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' premiere that capped off the G.I. Joe press tour last week was no different...

I arrived in sunny Los Angeles last Thursday morning, picked up some goodies for fans from Chan's management office, and checked into my hotel. My first assignment was to get some photos of the venue while they were setting up for the big event.

The premiere was held at Los Angeles' famous Grauman's Chinese Theater, right next to Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum and the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

I started taking photos way before noon and was surprised to see that fans were already staking claim to their spots on the sidewalk so they would have a good view of the premiere, which was scheduled to start around 7pm. I took a few pics of the black carpet and Chan's huge poster outside the theater and made my way back to the hotel so I could get ready for my very first summer blockbuster premiere.

A few hours later, I exited my hotel and found that the entire block in front of Grauman's had pretty much been taken over. It was a bumper-to-bumper traffic jam of excited fans that were determined to not lose their spot on the sidewalk, and I had to fight my way through the crowd and a traffic-stopping Jimmy Kimmel stunt with Chan's co-star Sienna Miller in a basket hanging three stories above the crowd.

Once the stunt was over, I was finally able to slowly move my way across the street, get to the will call table to pickup my golden ticket and wait for the festivities to begin. As I waited inside the building for Chan, Jenna, and their families to arrive, it was pretty surreal to see the celebs walk in a foot away from me.

From Chris Brown to Ciara to Heidi and Spencer from "The Hills" to every Wayans brother you can imagine to all of the stars of the movie, and an endless list of directors, producers, and studio executives, it was quite obvious that the 'G.I. Joe' premiere was the place to be that night.

In a town where I don't know many people, it's always nice to see familiar faces. While Chan and Jenna were taking photos and getting interviewed, I finally spotted Chan's parents, Kay and Glenn, on the carpet and hung out with them until they went into the theater.

Before they went inside, they introduced me to Chan's sister Paige, who I had not met yet in all of my Tatum adventures, and I took a photo of them standing in front of the theater on the huge Cobra symbol in the middle of Grauman's large courtyard.

The plan was that Jenna was going to tweet from the premiere, but her IPhone battery died on her right when she got to the premiere. When she finished her interviews, we chatted for a bit, I took a photo of her in her gorgeous Blumarine dress, Jimmy Choos shoes and Loree Rodkin jewelry (so I could tweet it out for her later for her), and then I made my way onto the front lines to start taking photos of Chan during his interviews.

It was pretty amazing to see all of the excited fans lining the streets for the premiere. Every once and a while, they would band together and scream out Chan's name so he would look in their direction and wave (and they would scream even more).

After Chan finished up all of his interviews, which took quite a while, he starting signing autographs for some of the fans who had been waiting for hours in many cases.

My favorite part of the night was when Chan surprised everyone (including security) by busting through the event gates, running across a busy street, and high-fiving screaming fans all up and down the block.

He made a complete circle around the perimeter, signed a few more autographs, took a quick photo with me, and we all walked into the theater together so we could grab some popcorn and a drink and watch the rest of the movie.

In my last article, I posted new paparazzi photos of Channing Tatum and his wife Jenna Dewan at the 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' Los Angeles premiere. Below you can check out all of my personal video straight from the black carpet...

I want to thank the event staff and Paramount for giving me special black carpet access to take photos and video of Chan as he was getting interviewed. It's something I've always wanted to do.

As I tweeted that day, the movie was awesome and kept me on the edge of my seat with it's non-stop action. After practically every big action sequence and once the credits started to roll, the theater erupted into applause. With all of the blood, sweat, and tears that goes into a production like this, it was really exciting to see how much everyone enjoyed the film.

'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' is now the #1 movie in the world (making over $100 million in four days) and has done so well that the word on the street is that Paramount has already greenlit the sequel. Today, the studio's vice chairman, Rob Moore, confirmed that a sequel, with Chan and the rest of the lead actors, will soon go into development.

I had an amazing time at the premiere and want to thank Chan, his mom, his publicist, and Paramount for letting me tag along!!!

'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' has premiered in tons of countries around the world. Fans can CLICK HERE to get your tickets TODAY!

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...

NEWS FLASH: Channing Tatum and the Cast of 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' Take Over Andrews Air Force Base

As I mentioned in a previous post, Channing Tatum and the 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' cast continued their world-wide press tour by holding a special screening for our troops at Andrews Air Force Base in Camp Springs, Maryland yesterday (July 31).

Chan and his co-stars Sienna Miller, Marlon Wayans, and Rachel Nichols arrived at the free military screening sticking out of the tops of Humvees and surrounded by approximately 300 screaming fans who stood in line around two hours just to see them. Another 400 people sat inside the theater anxious to see the film. The premiere was held for military families and included a special audience of wounded veterans from Walter Reed Medical Center, who sat right on the red carpet.

In the slideshow below you can check out all of the new photos I just added to the CTU Photo Gallery. They show Chan arriving in the Humvees with the cast, on the red carpet of the premiere, and taking photos with the troops and their families...

People Magazine interviewed Chan at the premiere and he talked about life as a newlywed. You can read their article in it's entirety below...

Channing Tatum: Newlywed Life Is 'Perfect'

By Arnesa A. Howell

It's been less than a month since actor Channing Tatum tied the knot with his Step Up dance partner Jenna Dewan, and it seems the honeymoon period is far from over.

"I'm as happy as I possibly can be on the planet right now," the newlywed actor gushed to PEOPLE at the G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra premiere at Andrews Air Force Base in Camp Springs, Md. on Friday.

The actor – who sported a three-piece pinstriped suit for his rounds on the red carpet of his film – admits that being a married man feels "just as it has for the last four years we've been together." And that's a good thing!

"We've been together, and nothing's really changed," Tatum says, adding, "It's pretty much the same as I've felt every day since I met her – and that's just about perfect."

The hunky actor with the Southern charm arrived at the premiere atop a Humvee alongside film costar Sienna Miller. As fans screamed his name, Tatum walked across the vehicle's hood and then jumped to the ground where he greeted eagerly awaiting fans. He also graciously signed autographs and posed for pictures with wounded servicemen from Walter Reed Medical Center who had gathered with their families for the special screening. Film costars Marlon Wayans and Rachel Nichols also attended the event.

Tatum admits that being part of the action flick has inspired him to be more, well, adventurous.

"Two-and-a-half months ago, I went [sky]diving with the Golden Knights," says the actor of his experience jumping with the U.S. Army parachute team. "That was probably one of the most exhilarating things on the entire planet for me. Literally, jumped out, about a minute freefall, and they took care of me for sure."

Says Tatum: "It's a very, very cool month and year for me, isn't it?"

Chan and the cast are currently doing press for 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' in New York for the next few days. Prior to going to yesterday's premiere, Chan appeared on the Today Show.

In the interview, he exudes southern charm and everyone seemed very smitten with him, including Al who ended the interview by saying Chan was a "sweet piece of man candy"! I've always said that Al was feisty, and quite frankly, their are very few people that would dare to disagree with that particular statement. You can watch the interview below...

The Today Show is a first in many US TV show appearances Chan will have as a part of his current press tour. He will also be a guest on Jimmy Fallon Tuesday, August 4th, on Regis and Kelly Wednesday, August 5th, and on It's On With Alexa Chung. I have not confirmed with date yet for Alexa's show, but I will let you know as soon as I find out. Check your local listings for the specific times of all of the shows in your area.

The press tour will end in Los Angeles at the 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' red carpet premiere on August 6th, and I'm hearing that the premiere may be held at the famous Grauman's Chinese Theatre. Check back daily for photos and appearance information for the events!!!

I have a some new videos for you. Below you can watch a new 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' TV Spot and an interview with Chan and his friend and castmate Marlon Wayans. Enjoy!
