Zoë Kravitz is still a big little fan of ex Channing Tatum.
In fact, the Big Little Lies actress—who directed her former fiancé in the 2024 thriller Blink Twice before their breakup in October—harbors no ill will toward Channing, telling Elle in an interview published Feb. 25, “I care for him very much.”
In fact, Zoë is very much looking forward to the next phase of his career.
“He has so much more coming, and I think he’s in a place as an actor where he’s feeling really confident and people are seeing different sides of him,” the actress shared. “He’s got a lot to offer, so I’m excited for people to keep witnessing that.”
And while the former couple parted ways just months after the film’s release, the split didn’t sour Zoë’s perception of her directorial debut—or its muse.
“Not at all,” she insisted. “I love this thing that we made together.”
She continued, “I’m so happy that all of it happened. I just feel so grateful that we got to go on that journey together.”
Zoë’s journey with Channing began when the 44-year-old was cast in Blink Twice in 2021, with dating rumors emerging in August of that year. From there, the relationship rapidly accelerated and the pair got engaged in October 2023 before calling it quits one year later.
Before their split, the High Fidelity star detailed how the two grew together creatively during their relationship.
“He makes me laugh and we both really love art and talking about art and the exploration of why we do what we do,” she told GQ in 2022. “We love to watch a film and break it down and talk about it and challenge each other.”
Similarly, Channing raved about working with his then-partner and encouraged other couples to push their own boundaries.
“I suggest this for anybody that’s in a relationship,” he told E! News in August. “Go find the hardest possible creative project and go do it together.”
