First trailer for '10 Years', produced by and starring Channing Tatum


As great of a 2012 as Channing Tatum has had, his 2011 kinda stunk up the joint. But as he was struggling through underwhelming flicks like The Eagle and The Son of No One, he also took time to call up every single big name saved onto his cell phone and gather them all together for the indie comedy, 10 Years(formerly Ten Year).

Produced by and starring Tatum, the film marks the directorial debut by Jamie Linden(Dear John), and follows agroup of close friends at their ten year high school reunion. It debuted last year in Toronto to mixed reviews, but nobody's going to care about that when the cast looks like this: Tatum, Rosario Dawson, Oscar Isaac, Ari Graynor, Chris Pratt, Max Minghella, Kate Mara, Lynn Collins, Anthony Mackie, Aubrey Plaza, Ron Livingston, and Tatum's real life wife, Jenna Dewan-Tatum.

Although it's not really all that funny, this sort of ensemble film is usually right in my wheelhouse. It'll be interesting to see how well they manage to cover what is clearly going to be about a dozen different storyline taking place all at once.  10 Years opens in theaters on September 14th....
