Why Channing Tatum’s Josephine Costar Gemma Chan Says He’s the Ultimate Girl Dad
You’re about to see Channing Tatum like you have never seen him before.
That’s because in Josephine, he tapped into his experience as dad to 13-year-old daughter Everly, according to costar Gemma Chan.
“If you only know him from things like Magic Mike or 21 Jump Street you will be in for a whole new side of Channing Tatum,” Chan told E! News at the premiere of Josephine during the Toronto International Film Festival. “He’s got such emotional availability. He’s got a daughter as well so I feel that he brought so much of his own experience to this role and he’s amazing.”
In fact, critics have lauded Tatum’s performance in Josephine—which follows a married couple navigating the aftermath of their young daughter witnessing a horrible crime—as one of his best. Chan feels the praise is more than deserved: “I’m not surprised by it because I know he’s such a fantastic actor.”
