Exclusive: Even More Storyboards From Channing Tatum’s ‘White House Down’!

Written by Ashley Burns / 05.23.12

Last we checked in on the development of the Roland Emmerich-directed Channing Tatum thriller White House Down, the action was getting intense and the all-star A-list cast was only just unfolding. C-Tates, of course, stars as Secret Service agent Cole “Snoop” Baretta, as the White House is overrun by terrorists and President Jefferson Washington (played by rapper T-Pain) is kidnapped and held for ransom. The price? Baretta’s own blood.

But now, thanks to Baretta’s sidekick Pit Bull the American Bulldog (voiced by Pit Bull), the tables have turned on the terrorists and they just might be able to rescue President Washington in time for the BET Awards after parties.

This week I’m proud to leak the storyboards for Scenes 4 and 5, which include incredible cameos by John Malkovich, Clint Eastwood and Rosie O’Donnell. Will Snoop and Pit Bull be able to get out of their latest jam? Yo, they ain’t scurred.

Exclusive: Two More Storyboards From Channing Tatum’s White House Down!

Written by Ashley Burns / 05.18.12

On Wednesday, Vince brought us the exclusive first look at a storyboard for the upcoming Roland Emmerich action film White House Down, starring the hardest working player in the Hollyweird game, Channing Tatum. What we know of this instant Oscar contender is that Tatum will play a secret service agent who must take matters into his own hands once the White House is overrun by a terrorist cell. Imagine the catchphrases that he’ll spout like, “I’m the bleeder of the free world” or something a little more clever.

Vince was right, though. I do have an inside line into the development of this film, and from what I’ve seen so far, it’s incredible. White House Down is going to have more famous actors than any film you’ve ever seen. I’m pretty sure they even brought some dead ones back to life.

But what you saw the other day was actually the storyboard for scene 2, in which C-Tates (as Cole “Snoop” Baretta) saves the president’s prized chicken from a ninja assassin. Today, I’m proud to debut the storyboards for the movie’s intro scene, as well as the incredible third scene, in which C-Tates’ partner is introduced. Enjoy, yo.

EXCLUSIVE Storyboard from Channing Tatum’s White House Down!

Written by Vince Mancini / 05.16.12

"Yo Al Qaeda Predator, chiggity check yo self."

Just the other day, we brought you the news that Channing Tatum would be starring in a film from Independence Day/The Patriot-director Roland Emmerich. The film is called White House Down, for Sony, with a premise described as “Die Hard in the White House,” and a script from the writer of The Losers, The Rundown, and the upcoming Total Recall remake (these are all true things, I swear). Burnsy seems to have a source very close to this project, because he was able to share an exclusive excerpt of the script in his original post. I don’t know how Burnsy gets his hands on so much C-Tates-related material, and come to think of it, both he and C-Tates are about the same age, both from Florida, both C-walk like angels, and to my knowledge, have never been photographed or seen in the same room together. In any case, we’ll hopefully be able to continue posting excerpts and behind-the-scenes information from the film, starting with today’s exclusive selection from the official storyboard.

Enjoy:
