Channing Tatum Still Wishes He Got to Do ‘Beauty & the Beast’ With Guillermo del Toro

Channing Tatum has had a varied career. He has played spies, superheroes, and soft-hearted men (he also dances really well).

Speaking to Vanity Fair, Tatum said he had been approached about a possible film adaptation of the childhood classic by Guillermo del Toro.
