EXCLUSIVE: Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Ice Cube and Rob Riggle Talk 21 Jump Street!

Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum head back to school in the film adaptation of 21 Jump Street. The 80's TV drama made Johnny Depp a star, but gets a comedic update for 21st century audiences. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum play a pair of goofball rookies chosen to uncover a dangerous new drug's source at a Los Angeles High School. Ice Cube co-stars as their profane and frustrated Captain, while Rob Riggle almost steals the film as the hard-charging phys ed teacher.

21 Jump Street is really funny with great chemistry between the leads. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum were a riot, doing the interviews in their bicycle cop outfits. Ice Cube discusses how he's gone from f**k the police in his NWA days to playing cops and roles of authority. Rob Riggle went the opposite route. He talks about his career in the Marines and how it lead to doing comedy. All together a great press day as every actor was very happy with the film. Check out our exclusive interviews.


21 Jump Street was released March 16th, 2012 and stars Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Brie Larson, Dave Franco, Rob Riggle, DeRay Davis, Ice Cube, Dax Flame. The film is directed by Phil Lord, Chris Miller.

    @julian you did a great job, if you or anyone else interviewed me about a project after 50 or 60 interviews I would still be excited.

    I fill my time by writing, directing and being a camera operator though not at the same time. I may not be as famous but I would still be excited.

    I spoke to Robert Picardo just last weekend and he was happy to see me since it's been 27 years since we've last seen each other. I was at the Canadian Comic-Con

    @bane5000,@zender, I wouldnt read too much into their lack of excitement. These dudes did like 50 interviews before they got to us, so hard to get excited to talk to me lol

    I've seen famous actors get excited about their new films, I've seen bad actors get excited over as well. But this... hell no. That's not the reaction I would expect.

    Yes, that's right we made this film - an uninterested actor would say.

    You know I loved how the director pushed me in ways I never thought possible- actor is beaming with joy.

    None of them seem excited over it which tells me to look the other away.

    They should really use the word " Adaptation " very loosely when it comes to comparing this movie to the tv show...such a shame what theyre doing with it

    judging by their lack of interest, this will fail for sure.
