Channing Tatum called his fiancée Zoë Kravitz a ‘nerd for movies’ on Wednesday while praising her directorial debut Blink Twice on Late Night with Seth Meyers.
Seth, 50, complimented the film that stars Channing, 44, for its high quality for a first-time director.
‘She’s such a nerd for movies. Like, she doesn’t do anything,’ Channing revealed about Zoë, 35, the daughter of Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz.
‘The first thing that she said when we started getting together was, like, ”I don’t do activities”,’ Channing said as the audience chuckled.
‘I think I laughed. It was exactly like, I was like, ”Ha-ha-ha. Okay.” She was like, ”No, listen to me. I don’t hike. I don’t do any of that stuff. That’s it”,’ Channing said.

Channing said on their typical day off they watch three or four movies a day.
‘Like we just love it,’ he said.
Channing also shared that Zoe has been working on the script for seven years.
‘I think she started writing this seven years ago while she was in London on a movie because she had a lot of downtime on the film,’ he said.
‘And it was called ‘P**** Island,” he said, eliciting laughter from the audience. ‘The original draft. And I think those were her first two words on the cover page. She didn’t even know exactly what it was going to be about but she knew it was going to be called that.’
Channing heaped praise on Zoe for her effort.
‘I just am so in awe of her process because even the first script that I got that I read, I knew that it was, like, wildly bold and taking some of the biggest swings that I’ve ever even seen,’ he said.
He said her passion for the project was so strong that just a week ago she was talking about working on it.
