Channing Matthew Tatum is an actor, producer, and dancer from the United States. He was born on April 26, 1980. Coach Carter, a drama film, was Tatum's first feature (2005). His breakout performance came in the 2006 dance flick Step Up, which helped him gain a larger following.
Tatum is most recognized for his starring role in Magic Mike (2012) and its sequel, Magic Mike XXL (2015), which he also produced. He also appeared in 21 Jump Street and its 2014 sequel, 22 Jump Street. He also played Duke in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra and G.I. Joe: Retaliation, both released in 2009. She's the Man (2006), The Dilemma (2011), White House Down (2013), Foxcatcher (2014), The Hateful Eight (2015), Hail, Caesar! (2016), and Logan Lucky (2016) are just a few of his previous projects (2017).
Kay Tatum (née Faust), an airline employee, and Glenn Tatum, a construction worker, raised Tatum in Cullman, Alabama. Paige is his younger sibling. His ancestors are mostly English.
When he was six years old, he and his family relocated to Pascagoula, Mississippi. He was raised in a rustic environment among the bayous near the Pascagoula River. Tatum has previously spoken about his struggles with attention deficit disorder (ADD) and dyslexia as a child, which hampered his academic performance. Tatum was a football, soccer, track, baseball, and mixed martial arts player as a kid, and he has stated that "ladies were always [his] greatest preoccupation in school." He was a wuzuquan kung fu master as a kid.
Tatum grew up in Tampa and went to Gaither High School. His parents encouraged him to put in more work, so he had the choice of attending a private high school or a military academy; he picked Tampa Catholic High School, where he graduated in 1998 and was named most athletic. Later, he received a football scholarship at Glenville State College in Glenville, West Virginia, but dropped out. He went back to his house and began doing odd jobs.
According to Us Weekly, Tatum quit his job as a roofer around this time and went under the name "Chan Crawford" as a dancer at a nearby nightclub. He told an Australian publication in 2010 that he intended to create a film about his stripper days. Magic Mike was born from this concept. Tatum relocated to Miami, where a model talent scout saw him.
Channing Tatum came to fame in the early 2000s for his charming (and swoon-worthy) performances in romantic comedies. However, the actor has retained his reputation in Hollywood by starring in a variety of genres and roles, including exciting, evocative pictures, highly acclaimed comedies, and dance performances.
After an audition in Orlando, Florida in 2000, Tatum was hired as a dancer in Ricky Martin's "She Bangs" music video, for which he was paid $400. He started his career in the fashion business as a model for well-known brands such as Armani and Abercrombie & Fitch. In 2002, he made the transition to television ads, winning national advertisements for Mountain Dew and Pepsi.
He then joined Page 305 (Page Parkes Modeling Agency), a Miami-based modeling agency. Al David put him in a Vogue magazine ad, and he went on to star in campaigns for Abercrombie & Fitch, Nautica, Dolce & Gabbana, American Eagle Outfitters, and Emporio Armani. In October 2001, he was named one of Tear Sheet magazine's "50 Most Beautiful Faces." In New York City, Tatum signed with Ford Models.
She's The Man, in which Tatum co-starred with Amanda Bynes and was dubbed "the best Shakespeare adaptation since '10 Things I Hate About You'" by Business Insider, was released in 2006. Tatum's breakthrough performance came in Step Up, which he co-starred in with his ex-wife Jenna Dewan later that year. Despite being critically criticized, the film has grossed $115 million worldwide.
In 2008, Tatum co-starred in filmmaker Kimberly Peirce's film Stop-Loss, about troops coming home from the Iraq War, and director Stuart Townsend's film Battle in Seattle, about the 1999 Seattle protests at the World Trade Organization conference. Rita Wilson directed the short film The Trap, in which Tatum starred.
Tatum and Dito Montiel reunited for Rogue Pictures' action thriller Fighting after working together on A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints. Sean McArthur, played by Tatum, is a young guy who makes a livelihood by scalping tickets in New York City. Tatum next starred as Pretty Boy Floyd, a 1930s American mobster, in Michael Mann's crime thriller Public Enemies, which he wrote, directed and produced in 2009. In the same year, Tatum appeared as Duke in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, a live-action picture based on the famous Hasbro action figures released by Paramount Pictures.
He was originally hesitant to accept the part because he was concerned that the film would glorify conflict; but, after reading the screenplay, he overcame his reservations. In Dear John, a film based on the famous Nicholas Sparks novel, he portrayed a soldier. He subsequently said that he took the job in order to learn from director Lasse Hallström since he had never attended an acting school.
Tatum said in an interview with Details magazine in early 2012 that he wants to produce all of the films in which he appears "I don't want to appear in any more films that I don't direct. I have no interest in not being on the ground floor of developing it unless it's with one of the ten filmmakers I truly want to work with."
In 2010, he, his wife Dewan, and his co-producer Reid Carolin inked a two-year contract with Relativity Media for any films they may make during that period. Tatum hosted Saturday Night Live in 2012 and starred in four films. He appeared with Rachel McAdams in Steven Soderbergh's action movie Haywire, The Vow, and Jonah Hill in 21 Jump Street (the film version of the TV series of the same name).

Step Up (2006)

Why don't we start with his breakout performance as Tyler Gage, a ne'er-do-well sentenced to community service hours at a dancing school, where, as you would expect, he wins a scholarship and dances his way to the top of the dance kingdom? Tatum looked a little green on film, but he didn't have to do any acting.
He was able to get through thanks to his maneuvering. Onset, he met his future wife, Jenna Dewan (whom he later divorced), and the two had a lot of chemistry.

Magic Mike (2012)

Isn't this Channing Tatum we're looking for? He portrays a male stripper who instructs a younger performer on how to party, pick up ladies and earn quick cash.
Despite what you may believe, this film is also intended for men. In the aftermath of the Great Recession of 2008, director Steven Soderbergh's film offers an honest and amusing look at a Southern man's entrepreneurial drive and desire. Matthew McConaughey gives an explosive and powerful supporting performance, kicking off the infamous McConaughey career.

21 Jump Street (2012)

Under the direction of "Lego Movie" pair Phil Lord and Chris Miller, Tatum and his buddy Jonah Hill demonstrated comic skills.
They put a humorous twist on it and added some good action into the mix, maybe in response to the low expectations for a TV series adaption. Brie Larson, Ice Cube, Ellie Kemper, and Jake Johnson were also among the all-star cast members.

Foxcatcher (2014)

Channing Tatum's Oscar chances were slim after his early heartthrob roles. However, the Cullman native sought out brilliant directors such as Steven Soderbergh, Joel and Ethan Coen, and Bennett Miller, who cast him as troubled Olympic gold medalist wrestler Mark Schultz.
Tatum was nominated alongside co-stars Steve Carell and Mark Ruffalo, but he did his fair share of the heavy lifting in this depressing film.

22 Jump Street (2014)

After breaking a high school drug ring, Jenko finally finds his athletic potential a few years too late, before realizing his buddy and new best bro (Wyatt Russell) is the campus's biggest criminal.
Even with directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller back on board, Tatum and Jonah Hill still make a great combination.

Logan, Lucky (2017)

Tatum may have found his calling as an actor after appearing in a NASCAR-themed heist film set in the South. This comedy follows two brothers who try to carry off a robbery at the Coca-Cola 600 race in North Carolina, directed by the director of the "Ocean's Eleven" series and "Magic Mike."
Tatum and Adam Driver portray two brothers who seek the aid of a colorful cast of people, including Daniel Craig, who wears a bleach-blond buzzcut and the most ridiculous Southern accent we've heard in a long time. As lighthearted as the "Ocean's" flicks, this is also a heartfelt tale of a sly father/daughter relationship, with Tatum's good-natured crook at its center.

10 Years (2011)

An under-appreciated high school reunion film starring Tatum, Rosario Dawson, Chris Pratt, Justin Long, Kate Mara, Anthony Mackie, Oscar Isaac, Aubrey Plaza, Jenna Dewan, and Ron Livingston before they were famous.

Magic Mike Xxl (2015)

On the surface, this was perhaps the most anticipated picture. Mike and his Tampa friends took the road to Myrtle Beach three years after quitting the stripper business to put on one last show.
Fans obviously enjoyed the sequel, which grossed $120 million at the movie office.

Haywire (2011) 

Tatum's first of several collaborations with Oscar-winning filmmaker Steven Soderbergh, in which he plays a brutal black operations team member alongside Gina Carano.
Carano portrays a super-soldier who is forced to flee after being deceived and set up during a mission. Tatum, a former business partner, is on a mission to bring it back in any way he can. The film is a slick, unusual action film featuring bone-chilling combat sequences.

Hail Caesar (2016)

Tatum used his humor and dancing talents for an extremely unforgettable scene paying tribute to a long-gone golden era of musicals in his collaboration with Joel and Ethan Coen for their love letter to Old Hollywood.
As a tap-dancing sailor in the Swingin' Dinghy bar's "No Dames!" song, Tatum does a great Gene Kelly impersonation. He doubles as a Communist agent and a movie star, ending in a stunning departure from La La Land.
