Channing Tatum's new film role is a far cry from his previous roles in the likes of Magic Mike and G.I. Joe. Voicing the part of Migo in the upcoming film Smallfoot, Channing plays a yeti scientist who is determined to prove the existence of Smallfoot (humans). Cute!

Taking to Twitter to share a short trailer for the animated film, Channing said, 'This is a big day for Migo. Get yeti – and check out @smallfootmovie’s new trailer! #SMALLFOOT'.

As well as Channing as the lead character, the film also stars popular talk show host James Corden as Percy, a human Mountaineering climber, and American actress Zendaya who plays Meechee, a yeti who believes in the Smallfoot and leads the S.E.S. (Smallfoot Exists Suckas).

Migo's discovery of a Smallfoot brings him fame and a chance with the girl of his dreams, however this throws his world into chaos. Smallfoot will be released on the 5th October 2018.

The full length trailer is below:

Meanwhile, while promoting this new film, Channing has taken to the red carpet for the first time since his shock split from his wife of nearly nine years, Jenna Dewan. The 37-year-old actor appeared in Las Vegas for CinemaCon along with his co-stars.

Channing and Jenna first met on the set of Step Up in 2006, and revealed the shock news of their split to their fans in a joint statement on social media. In the statement they explained how they had 'chosen to separate as a couple', however they will 'remain great friends' and continue to be 'loving dedicated parents to Everly'.
