‘Roofman' Trailer: Channing Tatum hides out in Toys ‘R' Us in bizarre true-crime tale
Paramount and Miramax have unveiled the first trailer for Roofman, a gripping true-crime drama starring Channing Tatum as a former Army Ranger turned notorious burglar who robs McDonald's restaurants by cutting holes in their roofs. Inspired by the real-life exploits of a felon nicknamed 'Roofman,' the film follows a struggling father and ex-soldier who resorts to a string of fast-food heists to support his family. After escaping from prison and hiding out in a toy store, he finds unexpected redemption in a new life — working at Toys 'R' Us, falling in love with a single mother (played by Kirsten Dunst), and forming a bond with her two daughters. But his past soon catches up with him, and a final robbery threatens to destroy his second chance at a clean slate. Alongside Tatum and Dunst, the film features an ensemble cast that includes Peter Dinklage, Ben Mendelsohn, LaKeith Stanfield, Juno Temple, Melonie Diaz, Uzo Aduba, Lily Collias, and Jimmy O. Yang. Roofman is directed by Derek Cianfrance, known for Blue Valentine and The Place Beyond the Pines. Cianfrance also co-wrote the script with Kirk Gunn. Producers include Lynette Howell Taylor, Jamie Patricof, Duncan Montgomery, and Dylan Sellers. Tatum, Cianfrance, and Jonathan Montepare serve as executive producers, alongside Chris Parker (Limelight), Thom Zadra and Becky Sloviter (Miramax), and Sam Romano, Rick Covert, and Jack Selby (High Frequency). Charles Barsamian is also attached as executive producer.

Michelle Williams Says Living With Ryan Gosling Was ‘Horrible'
Living with Ryan Gosling might be some people's idea of a dream come true. But for actress Michelle Williams, rooming with the star while filming the 2010 flick Blue Valentine wasn't all fun and games. In fact, she called it 'horrible.' 'We shot the first part where they're young and in love and everything is going really well and then we took a two-week break and we lived together,' Williams, 44, said. Pretty soon after they moved in, things started to change, she said on this week's episode of Dax Shepard's Armchair Expert podcast. The movie depicts the evolution of a marriage by showcasing how a happy relationship can transform into a strained and unhappy one. The movie ends with Williams' character leaving Gosling's, thanks to the sad and painful dynamic that the actors likely wanted to practice via method acting. 'We did these improvisations during the day to, honestly, find out ways to annoy each other and to destroy this thing that we had made,' Williams said. Despite the production team not wanting a filming break, she and Gosling, 44, were 'having such a hard time letting go of the thing we loved.' So they were given a challenge: destroy their own relationship. 'We learned how to annoy each other. It was horrible,' Williams recalled. 'I don't want to give you reasons to hate me. We were having such a good time. The party has to be over so soon?' The Manchester by the Sea star said they even went so far as to burn their characters' wedding photos. They were also told to act out difficult scenarios to trigger the emotional fallout and better create a failing relationship. 'You don't have to hate me, because now I hate me,' Williams added. 'I'm annoying. We [were] calling forth all our worst qualities!' Williams' method acting bore fruit when she received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress for her portrayal of Cindy. Gosling, meanwhile, was nominated for a Golden Globe for his performance as Dean. The Notebook hunk said in 2010 that part of their challenge while filming was trying to 'dismantle this thing we had been building.' '[Originally,] we all worked really hard to create this love story portion, when they're falling in love,' he said at the time. 'We wanted it to feel genuine and real and true. And we spent all of this time building it up, and then we had to tear it down.' He added that while filming, 'You're trying to remember that it is a movie, because it's so easy to get lost in it.'
