What Did Channing Tatum Say About The Film And His Fancé?
Speaking about his fiance and the director of his upcoming film, Tatum revealed that he didn’t even know Kravitz while signing up to play Slater King. The Dear John actor said, "When we first met, the movie was pretty different than it is now, but the themes were the same. All the iterations it has gone through were all pretty punk rock, to be honest.”
The Batman actress, too, talked about Tatum being sweet on the sets. She said, "Whether it was making me tea or pouring me a drink or going to whip someone into shape or whatever—he really was my protector.”
She added, "I think if you can do something like that together, it's a good test. And we came out even stronger. He makes me laugh, and we both really love art, and talking about art and the exploration of why we do what we do. We love to watch a film and break it down, and talk about it, and challenge each other."
Blink Twice is set to hit theaters on August 23.
