'Behind the Candelabra' Trailer Teases Life with Liberace

Movies — er, "cinema" — might not matter so much to director Steven Soderbergh these days, but judging by this new trailer for "Behind the Candelabra," a film he's been putting together for years and which will finally debut on HBO next month, he's still quite cozy in the director's chair.

The cable network released a first trailer for the film, which adapts the memoir of Liberace's lover-slash-chauffeur Scott Thorson, "My Life with Liberace," and it's absolutely gorgeous. Get More »

Flowchart: Which Steven Soderbergh Movie Is Right For You?

Steven Soderbergh has been one of the most prolific filmmakers of all time. He's also one of the most predictable, balancing out big studio projects like "Ocean's Eleven" and Oscar darlings like "Traffic" with low-budget personal experiments like "Bubble" and "The Girlfriend Experience." He's even got a knack for in-between audience-pleasers like "Magic Mike" and "The Informant!"

With a filmography this eclectic, it may be hard to figure out what Steven Soderbergh movie is right for you (if you had to, you know, pick just one). Upon the release of what appears to be his last theatrical film, "Side Effects," we've conjured a handy-dandy flowchart that may help you find that perfect Soderbergh fit.

Channing Tatum is looking to quit this whole acting business ... for a year, anyway.

The "Magic Mike" star will take a break from being in front of the camera to concentrate on being behind the camera in 2013, according to an interview with Inside Movies. Tatum is looking to take the time to focus on his directorial debut with his production partner, Reid Carolin.

"[Reid and I] have about three to four ideas that we love that are all in the hopper. By the end of next year, we're going to shut things down and write the first thing that we're going to direct," said Tatum, "We’re going to be like, all right, no more acting parts for a minute, let's take a few and really get caring about that section of our career."

Channing Tatum May Direct 'Magic Mike 2'

Magic Mike
Warner Bros.

When the male stripper drama, "Magic Mike," danced into theaters earlier this summer, we're not sure anyone anticipated what a success — both critically and commercially — it would be. (The flick earned a whopping $113 million domestically off a production budget of only $7 million). As to be expected, when Hollywood has a hit on its hands, it gets started on the sequel pretty much right away.

But with Steven Soderbergh insisting (at least for now) that he's taking a hiatus from filmmaking, there's an empty seat where the director should be. Queue music: enter Channing Tatum. Get More »

GALLERY: Only Fully-Clothed Men at 'Magic Mike' Premiere

Sorry, everyone — the men of "Magic Mike" didn't wear their costumes (or lack of them) to their big Hollywood premiere.

Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey and other "adult entertainers" kept it all on as they walked the red carpet in celebration of director Steven Soderbergh's modern-day fable about male strippers. While not much skin was shown, there were still plenty of prime photo ops.
