Channing Tatum Gave Some Hilarious Insight Into Working With Fiancé Zoë Kravitz
"You have to be a bitch in order to make a movie as good as you did."
While Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz undoubtedly had plenty of fun while filming Blink Twice (I mean, they fell in love after all), it wasn't all play. There was, obviously, loads of work, too. Kravitz took her directorial debut quite serious, and Tatum had some honest insight into what it was like to be on set together. And it narrowly landed him in the dog house.
The Batman star asked her fiancé a series of questions while he was hooked up to a lie detector for an interview with Vanity Fair. She started off easy with, "The movie, Blink Twice, do you like it?"
To which, the heartthrob who plays lead tech billionaire Slater King in the film responded, "I love it. I don't like it."
The lie detector administrator confirmed Tatum's answer, saying, "He's telling the truth."
Kravitz followed up with, "Do you think I'm a good director?"
"I don't think you're a good director, no," Tatum started. "I think you're an amazing director."
"Oh, my God. Stop it," Kravitz blushed, while the administrator chimed in, "That is also truthful."
Kravitz turned up the heat by asking, "Would you ever say there were days on set where I was...I don't know, a bitch?"
"100 percent," Tatum fired back without missing a beat, prompting a bent-over laugh from Kravitz. "Again, truthful," the administrator added.
Kravitz upped the ante by pressing, "Do you think I was a bitch because I cared about the project or because I'm just a straight-up bitch?"
"Mm, both...I'm kidding, I'm kidding," he quickly added between jaw-dropped gasps from Kravitz. "No, look. Directing, as you know, is one of the hardest things, and you have to be a bitch in order to make a movie as good as you did," Tatum explained, as Naomi Ackie (who plays lead Frida in the film) fell out of her chair laughing beside Kravitz.
His response was met with a skeptical look from Kravitz, who glanced over at the administrator. "He's being honest," she confirmed, once again.
Kravitz moved away from the topic of her directing chops with her final question: "Do you love me?" Tatum gushed, "I love you so much."
Kravitz weathered Tatum's forced honesty like a champ, which seemed easy enough as her man appears to have been nothing short of supportive of the project. In fact, the star couple put their love on display and finally made their red carpet debut at the movie's Los Angeles premiere, three years and a proposal later.
For the outing, they coordinated in cool, sleek black looks. Kravitz captivated in a backless gown with hip cutouts from Saint Laurent, slingback pumps, diamond star earrings, a slicked-back bun, and full Hollywood glam, complete with a red lip. Meanwhile, Tatum looked suave in a classic black suit.
“From producing to performing to pep talks to holding my head or my feet while I cried on the bathroom floor because I thought I fucked it all up, thank you for letting me be a complete OCD psychopath, control freak,” Kravitz said of Tatum's support in a video shared by The Hollywood Reporter.
