A complete timeline of Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz's relationship

• Channing Tatum and Zoë Kravitz became romantically linked in 2021.

• The stars have since gone public with their relationship and are now reportedly engaged.

• Tatum will star in the upcoming movie "Blink Twice," which marks Kravitz's directorial debut.

Kravitz and Tatum met in the casting process for her upcoming directorial debut, "Blink Twice."

The film was originally called "Pussy Island," but was retitled "Blink Twice" in 2024.

Kravitz hadn't met Tatum prior to casting him in the film, which she spent five years cowriting and rewriting with E.T. Feigenbaum. However, they both voiced characters in the 2017 animated film "The Lego Batman Movie."

"Blink Twice" centers on a cocktail waitress named Frida and a billionaire tech mogul named Slater King (Tatum).

"Chan was my first choice, the one I thought of when I wrote this character," Kravitz told Deadline in June 2021. "I just knew from 'Magic Mike' and his live shows, I got the sense he's a true feminist and I wanted to collaborate with someone who was clearly interested in exploring this subject matter."

She shared similar comments months later in an interview with Elle, saying that she felt like Tatum would be "brave enough" to be part of the movie.

"You need to be so far from who this is, where it's not scary," she said. "And I don't think we've ever seen him play someone dark. I'm excited to see him do that."

January 2021: E! News and People reported that the two stars were not dating, despite rumors.

Speculation occurred shortly after Kravitz filed for divorce from Karl Glusman, whom she wed in Paris on June 29, 2019.

E! News reported that the relationship rumor was not accurate and a source told People, "They're working together on an upcoming project and it's not true that they're dating."

Tatum's last known relationship was with the musician Jessie J, who he dated on and off from 2018 to 2020. He also shares a daughter named Everly with ex-wife Jenna Dewan, who he was married to from 2009 to 2018.

June 2021: Tatum recalled Kravitz being forthright about her opinion on his fashion choices.

"When someone can just come out and tell me I should not be wearing Crocs and is so adamant about it, she completely convinced me and I never wear Crocs anymore," Tatum told Deadline.

"I was just trying to be a good friend, Chan," Kravitz replied.

Tatum said that he "totally loved Crocs for a hot second, and in one hang she was like, you can't ever do that again. And I said, 'OK, fine.'"

He added: "I feel cooler, and her point of view on me and Crocs was legit. She had a good argument. The one thing I can pull off is listening."

Summer 2021: Romance rumors gained traction as the stars were photographed hanging out together.

"I went on a little bit of a journey trying to do Balenciaga and all this shit," he said. "And I was just like, 'This ain't me either. I don't know what the kids are doing these days.' And then some friends of mine, like you and Zo [Kravitz], were like, 'Why don't you just wear what you wear? Why don't you just be you?'"

Tatum also told the publication that he didn't know Kravitz prior to meeting her for the movie.

"When we first met the movie was pretty different than its form now, but the themes were the same," he said. "All the iterations it has gone through were all pretty punk rock, to be honest."

Of her relationship with Tatum, Kravitz said: "Do I want to go into that? I guess what I'll say is when you make things with people it's a very sacred space, and when you're compatible with somebody creatively it often opens up other channels, because you're kind of sharing all of yourself."

"I'm really grateful that this movie has brought him into my life that way," she added.

Summer 2022: Kravitz and Tatum began filming "Blink Twice."

January 2022: In a cover story for Vanity Fair, Tatum spoke about their relationship and owned up to following Kravitz fan accounts.

Tatum told Vanity Fair that he met Kravitz for the first time after reading a draft of "Blink Twice" that didn't make it "clear yet" what kind of film it was supposed to be.

"She had passion in there, and she had a point of view that was really specific to who she was and what her experience was," he said. "But I wasn't sure it was clear yet, what it wanted to be."

"Literally, after that meeting, my life went how it did and we lost touch," Tatum added. "Then, cut to two and a half years later, they had a new draft, and it was great."

"That's the kind of person you want to create with," he said of Kravitz. "That really has this perspective they're constantly digging for."

As for his decision to follow various Kravitz fan accounts on Instagram, Tatum admitted that he has "no chill."

"I was just seeing what she was up to! Also, I didn't know anyone would know," he explained.
