Hollywood star Channing Tatum is in final negotiations to star opposite Sandra Bullock in upcoming film, The Lost City Of D.

To be directed by Adam and Aaron Nee, the film casts Bullock as a reclusive romance novelist, and if the deal is sealed then Tatum will star as a cover model, reports variety.com.

The story revolves around the novelist who thinks nothing can be worse than getting stuck on a book tour with the model, but things take a different turn when a kidnapping attempt takes them both onto a jungle adventure, and they stumble upon a lost city.

The romantic action adventure is based on an idea by Seth Gordon, with an updated script from Dana Fox. Oren Uziel wrote the original story. Gordon is also attached to produce the film along with Bullock.

Meanwhile, Tatum recently wrapped production on the road trip comedy titled Dog, which he stars in and also co-directs with Reid Carolin. The film is slated for a February release.
