Channing Tatumis bonding with man’s best friend.
In thenew trailer forDog, the actor stars as Army Ranger Briggs in a buddy comedy set on a fun-filled road trip with an unlikely companion: aBelgian Malinoisdog named Lulu.
The two travel in a 1984 Ford Bronco down the Pacific Coast trying to make it in time to a fellow soldier’s funeral. Along the way, they “learn to let down their guards in order to have a fighting chance of finding happiness,” according to an official press release.
“You’re definitely not the girl I thought I’d be in the tub with,” Tatum’s Briggs says at the end of the trailer, taking a bath with Lulu. “But I’ll take what I can get at this point, I guess.”

Tatum previously wrote onInstagramabout making the film, “It’s already been a crazy ride. And we’ve only just begun. And if we survive the rest, it will be one of the most insane stories that I’ve ever been a part of. And I’ve been a part of some pretty crazy ones in this life of mine. This photo is from our first day of production on the first movie that my partner Reid and I are directing. This is our story. It’s taken us two years to get it to the starting line. The next eight weeks will be like riding a bull on sickmode in ludicrous speed. God be with us. In Dog we trust.”
Dogis in theaters Feb. 18.
