CHANNING TATUM IS
MERMAN IN 'SPLASH' REMAKE
Well since the gender swap is so very popular these days in Hollywood (not as much with the audiences, though) with ladies taking over male characters, here is something that goes the opposite way: Channing Tatum will take the role of mermaid in the remake of SPLASH, a role originally played by Daryl Hannah! Jillian Bell will take the role previously played by Tom Hanks. Disney's remake will probably have a similar story as the original film in which a man is saved by a mermaid and is then, after falling in love with her, offered a choice either to stay on land or to go under the sea with her and become a merman!
'HARLEY AND THE DAVIDSONS'
MINI SERIES TRAILER IS HERE!
Discovery has released the first trailer for their three night event series which starts September 5th HARLEY AND THE DAVIDSONS which, starring Michiel Huisman, tells the story of the famous company founders Walter and Arthur Davidson and their friend Bill Harley, and charts the birth of this iconic bike during a time of great social and technological change beginning at the turn of the 20th century.
DID YOU KNOW?
Back in those days the frames were steel, there were no shocks, and the clutch was a leather belt around a wheel. At bike racing events in the early days of the company, the motorcycles, which had no brakes, no gears, and hit 100 MPH, were dangerous both for the racers and the audience as they spilled oil and could burst in flames in seconds.

"Harley and the Davidsons" sounds intriguing. And won't Channing Tatum make an excellent merman! I'm sure you'll agree, Dezzy?
ReplyDeleteI will first have to see him flipping his tail before I can say :)
DeleteHOLY GAWD Channing as a mermaid. Be still my heart!!!! And just look at his cute sweater vest and how he's filling out his pants. Dezzy, thank you for this awesome Anniversary present. ;)

DeleteSplash was one of my favorite films when I was little. I am kind of excited about the remake, especially with Channing leading the film! Can't wait to see him as a merman!
ReplyDeleteshould be both weird and fun
DeleteHopefully the Splash remake is done well. Very interested in seeing Tatum as a merman. Those bike races in that trailer were savage. Woooh!

DeleteI'm struggling with Channing as a mermaid. Giggle (Sorry, I couldn't help myself.)
ReplyDeletehe might be like fish in the water in it, we will have to wait and see
DeleteAha, a reversed versionof Splash. I watched the original Daryl Hannah and Tom Hanks film. This should be fun. I can't help imagining Channing Tatum making Magic Mike moves as a merman, haha.
ReplyDeletethat would sure make it more interesting
DeleteChanning as a merman. Interesting. Can't wait to see that! The Harley series is something I'm sure my husband would want to see.
