When Channing Tatum crumped onto the scene I may or may not have insisted Step Up be the choice for family movie night about a million and one times (just ask my mom). His Hollywood debut (for which we have to thank for the cinematic classic Step Up 2: The Streets) turned into a 10-year-plus relationship with his co-star Jenna Dewan, who he married and had a child named Everly with. Their love story was so cute that it seemed like something straight out of a romcom script, which is why it was so shocking when they announced their divorce in 2018. Following his divorce things got a wee bit messy when he dove into an on-again-off-again relationship with Jessie J (who fans couldn’t help but notice shares a strong resemblance to Jenna Dewan) but Channing eventually laid low for a while relationship-wise. That is until he was spotting roaming NYC with Cat Woman. Channing and Zoë Kravitz fell in love, got engaged, and then…. split just a year later. While they’re currently basking in the glory of rave reviews of their movie Blink Twice AND announcing their split, it’s the perfect time to take a look at Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz’s relationship timeline.

Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz relationship timeline

How did Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz meet?

Channing and Zoë were first introduced as they both worked on the 2017 Lego Batman movie. Then in 2021, Zoë intentionally cast Channing as the bonkers billionaire in her movie Blink Twice, which later premiered in theaters in 2024. Her directorial debut was originally named Pussy Island, which I personally would’ve stanned, but whatever the new title is good too.

When did Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz start dating?

Dating rumors surrounding the couple started in 2021 after Zoë had split from her ex-husband Karl Glusman in January. Glusman and Zoë were married for only 18 months. At the time, those claiming to be knowledgeable about the situation alleged Zoë and Chan Chan were just pals who got close during production but one too many cozy shots of the pair strolling the streets of New York said otherwise. Memorable spottings include the famous photo of Zoë riding on the back of Channing’s bike and the 2021 Met Gala (which happened in September due to Covid-related delays). They walked the carpet separately but were alleged to have spent all night canoodling at the after-party. Considering how good they both looked, can’t really blame them.

Channing And Zoë’s First Red Carpet Appearance

On March 1, 2022, Channing attended the premiere event in New York for Robert Pattinson’s The Batman.

In a rare telling interview from the private Hollywood powerhouse, Zoë called Channing a “wonderful human” and “protector.” He supported her on and off set (their meme-worthy bike ride moment actually happened because Zoë was sweating walking that day and Channing offered to give her a ride so she could “relax”). Zoë gushed in GQ about the first movie they ever watched (True Romance) and said that she wanted to “keep sacred and private as long as” she could.
