It’s being reported that Channing Tatum has been cast as "Duke" in the upcoming "G.I. Joe" movie.  Channing has been in "She’s the Man," "Step Up" and will appear next in "Stop-Loss" and "Fighting."

If you’re a regular reader, you might remember me going a bit overboard recently about the "G.I. Joe" casting news but I can’t help it!  I’m really excited!  In case you don’t know, Duke is the Joe Team’s first sergeant, and second in command.  His real name is Conrad S. Hauser and it’s a good role!Paramount plans to release the film on August 7, 2009.

Here’s a side-by-side comparison of Channing and Duke - could work!
