Just off of his co-directing and starring role stint in the new film “Dog,” Channing Tatum knows how hard it is to direct and act in the same movie. His girlfriend Zoë Kravitz is making her directorial debut with the film “Pussy Island,” which stars Tatum, and Tatum suggested she not take an acting role in the film as well because it is so much work. “I was like, ‘you’ll need double the days,'” he told Variety. “She’s a perfectionist in the best possible way.”
It’s important to know how one’s significant other operates around work, especially if you’re working together on a project. So, while some might take offense to being called a “perfectionist,” Tatum is clearly saying it with his lovely lady’s wellbeing in mind.
That respect is mutual, as an industry source told People back in September that Kravitz “thinks Channing has depth both as an actor and a person.” It’s heartening to see these two support one another’s multi-faceted dreams. We hope they continue to build one another up in an industry that can so often tear people down.
