Channing Tatum in Foxcatcher
The Big Picture Brad Pitt is often mentioned when discussing “character actors with the bodies of leading men,” and the same description could apply to Channing Tatum. Although Tatum got his start in a series of romantic comedies that didn’t exactly give him much room to flex his acting muscles, he subsequently appeared in more challenging projects thanks to his recurring partnership with Steven Soderbergh.
Foxcatcher U.S. Olympic wrestling champions and brothers Mark Schultz and Dave Schultz join "Team Foxcatcher", led by eccentric multi-millionaire John du Pont, as they train for the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul, South Korea, but John's self-destructive behavior threatens to consume them all. Tatum does a great job at showing the tormented state of Mark’s psychology that leads him to make such an unexpected decision. Mark is still trying to prove himself, as even winning an Olympic medal isn’t enough to make him not feel like the “lesser” of his two siblings. Working with Dave is a challenging situation. While Mark clearly needs a mentor who can help him perfect his craft as an athlete, he does not feel that his brother can properly assess his skills given their close relationship.
‘Foxcatcher’ Doesn’t Work Without Channing Tatum Anyone who didn’t know the true story of Foxcatcher going in may have been taken off guard by one of the most disturbing movie endings in recent memory. After a series of disputes regarding the leadership makeup of the team, du Pont murdered Dave in 1996, with the film suggesting it was out of jealousy for his relationship with Mark. Tatum is put in the most morally challenging position within the tragedy.
