By: Caryn Robbins Oct. 29, 2013
EW has confirmed that Channing Tatum is currrently developing an hourlong reality pilot for the A&E network which will center on his Bourbon Street restaurant and bar, Saints & Sinners.
The actor opened the busines with his friend Keith Kurtz last fall. The partners will serve as executive producers for the project along with Original Media's Charlie Corwin.
According to the establishment's web site, Saints & Sinners offers "food, spirits, music, and a sinfully good time," and is "styled after the famous red-light district bordellos and burlesque halls of New Orleans' Storyville era, Saints & Sinners is Tatum's tribute to the city's ribald, good-time reputation."
Channing is best known for his roles in Step Up (2006), G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009), Dear John (2010), The Vow (2012), 21 Jump Street (2012) and Magic Mike (2012). He has also appeared in films such as Coach Carter (2005), She's the Man (2006), A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints (2006), Fighting (2009), and The Dilemma(2010) and G.I. Joe: Retaliation (2013).
