Sources close to the production assured that they were not together during the filming of the film and they had to wait until August 2021 for their first public appearance riding a bike through New York.
A month later, the romance was confirmed and we saw them leave the Met Gala side by side.

This is everything you need to know about the film that began their romance and the one that will force them to share a set soon.
‘Blink twice’, the film that brought them together
In 2024, Channing Tatum has finally been able to be Gambit in the MCU thanks to Deadpool and Wolverine and has starred in a rom-com with Scarlett Johansson (Fly Me to the Moon). However, the project that he has promoted with the most enthusiasm has been Blinks twice, the feminist thriller directed and co-written by Kravitz.
It was the film that brought them together, in which he plays the role of a technology magnate who, after becoming infatuated with a waitress, invites her to a private island with his friends. In this paradise, the party never ends and everyone has a great time. However, the dream turns into a nightmare when the protagonist realizes that something strange is hidden behind so much revelry and she has to uncover it if she wants to survive.
Along with Tatum, we find well-known faces from film and television such as Naomi Ackie, Adria Arjona, Christian Slater or Geena Davis.
This explicit and violent film is the son of the movement Me Too and Kravitz knew he wanted Tatum for the lead role before he met him. “He was the only one I thought of when I wrote the character,” said the director in Deadline: “By magic mike and the live show, I felt like I was a real feminist and I wasn’t afraid to explore the darkness. because he knows that’s not what he is.”
The premiere in August Blinks twice, which was well received by critics, allowed us to see more moments of love between the couple. They shared complicit and intimate moments on red carpets, interviews and other promotional events, showing that, apparently, everything was going smoothly in their love story. Two months later, the romance that was born on that set has faded.
‘Alpha Gang’, their next film together
It is not advisable to work with a partner, but even less so with a recent ex. Kravitz and Tatum are going to have to skip 0 contact in this stage of grief and rush to the acceptance phase for the next project they share, Alpha Gang a science-fiction comedy produced by and starring Cate Blanchett, which will begin filming in spring 2025.
David and Nathan Zellner (Sasquatch Sunset) direct this crazy story about an alien leader and her gang, the Alpha One, who pose as 1950s bikers to conquer Earth. However, when the invaders begin to experience human emotions, with all that that entails, the plan goes awry.
Blanchett leads a stellar cast that, in addition to Kravitz and Tatum, is made up of Dave Bautista, Steven Yeun, Lea Seydoux and Riley Keough, who already worked with the Zellners in Sasquatch Sunset.
This comedy about an alien invasion looks great, although something tells us that it won’t be an easy shoot for the exes, no matter if they ended on good terms or how professional they are. With a little luck, they won’t share many scenes together among so many Hollywood stars who have joined the adventure.
