Zoë Kravitz has opened up about her past relationship with Channing Tatum, expressing nothing but appreciation and warmth as she reflects on their time together.
The actress and director, who made her feature directorial debut with the 2024 psychological thriller Blink Twice, cast Tatum as the lead antagonist in the film.
Despite their romantic relationship ending after the project, Kravitz remains deeply proud of their collaboration and the bond they shared.
In a recent interview, Kravitz spoke candidly about the experience, emphasizing that their split has not diminished her admiration for the film or Tatum’s performance.
“I love this thing that we made together, and I care for him very much,” she shared. “Hearing people praise his work fills me with joy. I’m so happy that all of it happened, and I feel incredibly grateful that we got to go on that journey together.”
Kravitz and Tatum appeared to be on good terms during the Los Angeles premiere of Blink Twice in August 2023, but by October, they had officially ended their engagement. Since then, Tatum has been linked to Australian model Inka Williams, while Kravitz has sparked dating rumors with actor Noah Centineo.
Despite the media attention surrounding their personal lives, Kravitz has maintained a professional and gracious perspective on her past relationship with Tatum.
This isn’t the first time Kravitz has publicly discussed Tatum since their breakup. In a December interview with director Matt Reeves for Variety, she reflected on the casting process for Blink Twice, revealing her intention to “weaponize his charisma” in a role unlike anything he had done before.
“We’ve never seen him do something like that,” she noted, highlighting her desire to showcase a different side of Tatum’s talent.
Speaking on an interview, Kravitz also expressed confidence in Tatum’s future as an actor. “He has so much more coming,” she said. “I think he’s in a place where he’s feeling confident, and people are starting to see different dimensions of him. He’s got a lot to offer.”
Kravitz’s reflections underscore her ability to separate personal history from professional admiration.
Her gratitude for their collaboration and her belief in Tatum’s artistic growth demonstrate a maturity and respect that transcends their romantic past.
As both continue to navigate their careers and personal lives, their work on Blink Twice remains a testament to their creative synergy and mutual respect.
