More quotes by Channing Tatum
It comes down to the experience of it. The more you fight, the more you know, the more you can use in the ring.
Channing Tatum
I've said that movies are the highest stakes make-believe game in the world, and this is truly the most highest stakes.
Channing Tatum
I know I will never wear sandals now anywhere. I got in a fight in the back of a grocery store when I was really young, like 14 or something. And I remember my feet were so torn up afterwards because I lost my sandals in the middle of the fight. My toenail was missing. It just sucked.
Channing Tatum
The director sets the tone, and if someone's ruling it with an iron fist, people are quiet and the days go long in my experience, when there's a very serious tone, the days just drag. When there's someone who, in between takes, is joking or laughing the days go quick.
Channing Tatum
American audiences love period pieces. America doesn't have a lot of old things. It's a new country so I think we're a little bit fascinated by that.
Channing Tatum
For a time, it would work well. then it worked less and my pain was more. I would go through wild bouts of depression, horrible comedowns. I understand why kids kill themselves. I absolutely do. You feel terrible. You feel soul-less. I'll never do it to my child.
Channing Tatum
Waxing was an interesting experience. Not quite as painful as I expected.
Channing Tatum
If I can still be successful making films and no-one will ever know me, then that would be great. Because we (actors) just like to do what we do. People who are doing it for fame, I don't know if they ever get really successful.
Channing Tatum
There's only a few directors that can do what Emmerich does on an international scale and on an action scale.
Channing Tatum
I went hunting, I shot a deer, and it mortified me. I just couldn't do it again.
Channing Tatum
My bar for being successful is being able to do movies that really mean something to me and being able to make a living off of that.
Channing Tatum
I'm not a political person. When I start to get into it, it just upsets me. I feel so powerless when it comes to politics. So I've just decided to be non-political and very, very pro-soldier.
Channing Tatum
There is a lot of underground type of fighting going on and some of it is not safe, it's pretty brutal. But it's absolutely fascinating.
Channing Tatum
I don't think there's a date minimum or maximum. I don't get the whole 'All right, you've got to wait three days to call after the date.' If I got a number from a girl, I'd call that night. There's no science to it for me. You just do what it is that you feel like doing.
Channing Tatum
As actors you're always afraid to go too far but Lasse Hallstrom wants you to go too far. He wants you to do it wrong, to be over-the-top, and that's so freeing to be able to think 'Now I can try and be bad'. There's no pressure on you and you don't feel you can make a mistake.
Channing Tatum
I do want to take some time and reinvent and get better and maybe get behind the camera a little more. I do want to direct at some point and start failing really early - start shooting videos and then commercials and then hopefully do some narrative.
Channing Tatum
I do get nervous to act, it kind of depends on what it is really.
Channing Tatum
I think some of the scariest people I've met in my life have been some of the sweetest.
Channing Tatum
You don't try any less hard on the ones that don't. I've gotten lucky to work with some amazingly talented people that have helped the ones that have worked work. I think you just have to keep doing the stories you love and the characters that you love and are drawn to.
Channing Tatum
I don't want any sports anymore, except fighting which is the only sport I really watch - whether it's boxing or UFC. I don't know why. I think maybe it's an aspiration I didn't get the chance to explore more, but I don't think my father expected anything from me, I think it's more what I put on myself.
