Hollywood stars Channing Tatum and Brad Pitt are teaming up to produce a live-action film based on the Isle of Man TT, with Tatum set to star. Pitt’s production company, Plan B Entertainment, is on board alongside Amazon MGM Studios for the project, stemming from Amazon’s acquisition of MGM.
Details about the plot or characters are scant, but the 45-year-old Tatum, known for Magic Mike and Jump Street movies, will lead. This marks Tatum’s third venture into motorsport-related films, following Supercross (2005) and Logan Lucky (2017).
Reid Carolin, who directed Tatum in Dog, is set to direct the film, co-written by Carolin, Bryan Johnson, and Jason Kellar, known for Ford v Ferrari. The film’s release date remains unknown, but it’s expected to focus on next year’s TT races.
A documentary series about F1 and the TT, produced by Box to Box, will accompany the movie on Amazon. This development is hailed as a game-changer for the TT event by Paul Phillips, Head of Motorsport at the Manx Government, enhancing the event’s global reach.
