Channing Tatum Dying to Play Gambit

From: AceShowbiz.com

A self-professed comic book fan, 'G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra' star Channing Tatum laid bare his true feeling of missing out on playing Gambit in 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine'.

Though drawing envy when landing the role of Duke in the forthcoming "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra", Channing Tatum revealed there is one particular role he himself wishes to be able to carry out, Gambit. "Man, I was dying to play [Gambit]," the 28-year-old shared to MTV News about his desire to portray the character he holds dear to his heart.

"My dad's from Louisiana and I think I've always just gravitated towards Gambit in general," he in addition explained about his personal connection with the "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" character. "He's just cooler than anything to me."

Actually, this "Step Up" hunk has nailed the role of Gambit's alter ego, Remy LeBeau, after he auditioned for Brett Ratner's "X-Men: The Last Stand". At the last minute, however, the character's participation was cut off. When the character is finally included in "Wolverine", Tatum was immediately contacted. But, he was already attached to "G.I. Joe".

While in the end he didn't get to play Gambit, he still has nothing but positive words for Taylor Kitsch, the depicter of the Cajun card player in "Wolverine". "I'm really interested to see how the guy plays him because I have a pretty clear version of Gambit in my head," he said. "I'm sure the guy is going to be great, though."

Channing Tatum will be seen starring as the leader of the special operation team G.I. Joe in "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra" when the live-action movie arrives in theaters across the U.S. on August 7. In the meantime, "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" is set to blast off in U.S. theaters on May 1.

Superbowl Movie Trailers Revealed!

From: Cinematical.com

Unlike last year's poor showing, the Hollywood studios are bringing out the big guns for this year's Superbowl. What that means is our first look at Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, as it seems Paramount will be holding out for that Superbowl launch. Other much-anticipated trailers arriving that Sunday include G.I. Joe, Angels and Demons, Monsters vs. Aliens(the 3-D version, which requires special glasses, will air at the end of the second quarter), Land of the Lost and Fast and Furious, with spots for Pixar's Up and X-Men Origins: Wolverine also likely. Damn.

Last year I believe a couple trailers leaked prior the the big game, but all of them were available online immediately afterwards. No word on whether any of these trailers will arrive online beforehand to soak up a little internet spotlight before having to share the main stage on Superbowl Sunday. Additionally, according to Variety, some studios -- like Warner Brothers, Fox and Disney -- still haven't bought air time, but may wait until the last minute to snag a spot at a lower price. Warners, for example, has Watchmen, Terminator: Salvation and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on the agenda, and we'd be surprised if none of those snuck in a little game day treat.

Which trailer are you most excited to see?

Four New 'G.I. Joe' Posters Ready for Battle

From: GetTheBigPicture.net

What was it we said yesterday about movie posters...oh yes, "We've seen character posters ad nuaseum over the past few years." And so we have. And aparently, that trend is going to continue.

Take a look at the four new character posters from G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, which popped up at Filmz.ru last night. I guess they're pretty cool. I love the casting of Sienna Miller as the Baroness, and of course, Ray Park as Snake Eyes is a good move. But I still want to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Cobra Commander.
