Channing Tatum Plays Real-Life McDonald's Robber, Toys"R"Us Stowaway in New 'Roofman' Trailer
- Channing Tatum portrays real-life rooftop robber Jeffrey Manchester in the film 'Roofman,' which is set to be released on October 10. The movie follows Manchester's daring exploits, including robbing numerous McDonald's outlets and living in a Toys"R"Us after escaping prison.
- The trailer for 'Roofman' showcases Tatum in an early 2000's Toys"R"Us, using Heelys and surviving on peanut M&Ms while evading recapture. The film also stars Kirsten Dunst, Juno Temple, Ben Mendelsohn, and Peter Dinklage under the direction of Derek Cianfrance.
- Jeffrey Manchester was convicted after committing over 60 robberies at McDonald's in the late '90s and early 2000s. He managed to escape a North Carolina prison in 2004 and resided in a nearby Toys"R"Us until early 2005.
- Despite Manchester's criminal history, 'Roofman' portrays him as a compassionate individual. The movie will depict Manchester's time residing in the toy store and his notorious roof-entry method during robberies. The actual Manchester continues to serve his prison sentence with expected release in 2036, having made two escape attempts post his initial prison break.
