Tatum's shocking G.I. Joe exit necessary, says director Chu

Jon M. Chu doesn't regret Channing Tatum's small role in 'G.I. Joe: Retaliation', as it was key to shocking the audience.

The director - who helms the upcoming action blockbuster starring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, Adrianne Palicki and D.J. Cotrona - has revealed that the film's producers wanted to "shock" the audience by killing off the actor's on-screen alter-ego early in the movie.
