“I remember going to Bob Preston's dressing room because I was losing a laugh - as you do in a long run. He said, 'Give me the script. That's where you're going off the road.' That's comedy.

“I don't want to do only movies that I'm in. I definitely want to start to branch out and do TV and stuff that I'm not in and really make a good run at it as a production. I'm probably going to take a break from acting after a little while because I've enjoyed the developmental process so much. It helps you as an actor to learn story and to learn how to really nurture a script and work with a writer so you're not sitting there having to write it yourself and give notes.” WantGivingWritingLittlesHelpingStoriesRunningActorsStuffProcessActingBreakTvsSittingNotesScriptsProductionsEnjoyedBranchesNurtureDevelopmental Author:Channing Tatum
“The whole movie thing has never been a source of great pride for me, in that Burt Reynolds, who starred in the picture, butchered the original script I had written for the late Steve McQueen, and the result, while a massive moneymaker, was lashed by the critics. But like the old joke about Pierre the Bridge Builder, The Cannonball Run is indelibly inscribed on my so-called career portfolio, and few conversations with strangers pass without the subject of the picture arising.” WholeRunningResultsCareersWrittenSubjectsSourcePrideConversationLateJokesOriginalsCriticsScriptsStrangerBridgesMassiveBuilderPortfoliosMcqueenOld JokesCannonballs Author:Brock Yates
