You’ve seen Channing Tatum strip. The dream peaked early. So what would you like to see him do now? Jump over tons of huge and wide stuff with a motorcycle and break a cumulative total of 433 bones? Perfect — he’s close to signing on to an Evel Knievel biopic as both star and producer. Also, apparently there was a 1977 movie called Viva Knievel! If that title doesn’t mind being reused, it’s pretty great.
