This article discusses the 2012 film '21 Jump Street' starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill, its success, and potential sequels. The movie, a comedic adaptation of the 1980s TV series, earned over $200 million and spawned a sequel. The article also mentions unrealized sequel ideas, including a crossover with 'Men In Black'.

AUSTIN, TX - MARCH 12: Actor Channing Tatum and actor Jonah Hill attend the Q&A for the World Premiere of " 21 Jump Street " during the 2012 SXSW Music, Film + Interactive Festival at Paramount Theatre on March 12, 2012 in Austin, Texas.

LOS ANGELES, CA - MARCH 13: Actors Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum arrive at the premiere of Columbia Pictures' "21 Jump Street" at the Grauman's Chinese Theater on March 13. 2012 in Los Angeles, California. The movie was based on the TV series of the same name that ran from 1987 to 1991 and launched Johnny Depp to stardom. While the TV series took a more serious approach to the concept of young police officers going undercover as teenagers in high school, the movie went absolutely wild with comedy. Tatum starred as Jenko, the more jock/popular type in high school that became a police officer, and Hill as Schmidt, the nerdier/less popular kind of guy who also joined the force. They formed an unlikely dynamic duo, creating a hit comedy that was self-aware, raunchy as all get out, and screamingly funny. The film earned over $200 million at the box office and spawned a sequel, “22 Jump Street,” in 2014, which took things even further. The credits of the movie teased dozens of sequel ideas, including a crossover with “Men In Black” that almost came to life. “There is a project that was written and it’s still the best script that I’ve ever read for a third movie,” Tatum told Tatum was being interviewed at the time with his “Fly Me to the Moon” co-star Scarlett Johansson, who asked what happened to the project.
