Channing Tatum

“I've always had way too much energy so I'm always looking for new things to do to channel that energy.”

“My dad was a roofer when I was young. I believe he owned his own roofing company in Florida. And then he fell through a roof, broke his back. Permanently. I mean, he's not paralyzed or anything, but he's had to deal with pain for all of his life since then.”

“No one's calling me for lawyer roles. I still have a lot to do to prove myself.”

“But I stuttered as a kid. I went to classes to help it, and it just went away around fourth grade, when I became more aware of how others spoke, I think. But also, growing up in the South, a mumble is a way of speaking.”

“I believe in love. I believe in good stories. I play really hard on the weekends because I like to have those stories. My wife and I go off and do craziness all the time. We're just like, 'What can we go get into this weekend?' Then we have other ones where we just sit and do nothing and then we have work that we do. It's all memories.”

“'Jump Street,' I knew we had a great time. It didn't matter, didn't know if it was going to do well.”

“With sculpting, nothing is cloudy or mystical. It's just about this object, and if you're trying to depict reality, and you do it well, then the outcome is the truth.”

“I can completely lose myself into just absolutely satisfying things - a really amazing cheeseburger, a pizza, good fries, a beer. I enjoy being comfortable and eating whatever the hell I like. It's a big thing for me, just having the freedom to be able to do that.”

“I don't know what you're going through life doing if you're not really trying to collect some really great memories.”

“I had an all right high school, even though I hated school. I wasn't massively popular, but I was okay. But I wouldn't want to do it again.”

“I have a tradition that I always steal my last costume on the last day of filming.”

“It's really hard for men to tell other men 'I love you' without putting a 'man' at the end of it. Like, 'I love you... man.' You just can't look at another man and say, 'I love you.'”

“'The Vow,' I didn't know if people were going to want to see it, but we felt good about it. We we're like, 'Alright, either way, I liked the movie for what it was,' and I think we knew exactly what we were trying to do.”

“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.”

“The film is a direct mirror of the director. If your director doesn't know how to dress, there will be an aesthetic of the film that won't come through - whether it's in the costumes if he doesn't know exactly what he wants or the look of the film.”

“נשים אוהבות אותו וגברים חושבים שהוא בחור מגניב. הוא באמת הבחור שכולם בעדו.”

“אין ערובה בסרטי המשך. זו משימה קשה להצליח בשנית וזה מכניס אותך לפרופורציות.”

“לא התאמנתי פעם אחת מאז 'מג'יק מייק', אבל אני יודע שאני אצטרך לעשות את זה שוב. אני לא שחקן מספיק טוב כדי לשחק בסרט מבלי להוריד חולצה, אז אני פשוט מחכה עד שלא תהיה לי ברירה.”

“אני לא לוקח ברצינות את החלוקה לז'אנרים. החיים שלנו מלאי אקשן, דרמה וקומדיה וזה צריך לחלחל לקולנוע. יש לאנשים תיאבון לראות דברים מציאותיים שמכילים את הכול. גם בחיי אני עובר ממצב קיצוני אחד לשני. המטרה היא תמיד להתמקם איפה שהכי נוח לך.”

“אין דבר יפה יותר מנשים, בניגוד לנו הגברים, יצורים פשוטים שמסתפקים בקלות באותו דבר כל ימות חייהם, נשים זקוקות לגיוון.”
