Channing Tatum & Reid Carolin on Dog and What Happened with Their Gambit Movie

With Channing Tatum and Reid Carolin’s Dog now playing in theaters, I recently spoke to the two of them making their directorial debut. If you haven’t seen the trailers, Dog tells the story of two former Army Rangers — Briggs, played by Tatum, and Lulu (the title character), as they make their way through the Pacific Coast in the hopes of making it to a soldier’s funeral. Along the way, Lulu’s off-the-wall behavior will push Briggs to his limits and bring him to a better understanding of both himself and his canine companion. The film was written by Carolin, from a story by Carolin and Brett Rodriguez. Joining Tatum in the cast are Jane Adams, Kevin Nash, Q’orianka Kilcher, Ethan Suplee, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Nicole LaLiberté, Luke Forbes, and Ronnie Gene Blevins. During the fun interview, Channing Tatum and Reid Carolin talked about why they thanked Alan Horn, Seth Rogen, and Steven Soderbergh in the credits, the editing process and why Tatum couldn’t be involved, how the dogs were trained
