Toys ‘R’ Us Loved ‘Roofman’ and Channing Tatum Returned the Favor

Most might flinch when pairing a wholesome family brand with an R-rated fugitive thriller.

Channing Tatum Charms as Toys R Us-Dwelling Crook

Getting robbed at gunpoint can be a traumatizing thing, though “Roofman” subject Jeffrey Manchester’s victims describe him as unusually conscientious. Breaking into McDonald’s restaurants to steal the loot, he’d lock the employees up in the cooler, but not before making sure they were wearing enough layers to keep warm.
