It&#8217;s been a bit since the pair were spotted out together, but in new photos shared this week, they were seen on vacation on Ponza Island, Italy. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/tvshowbiz\/article-11117821\/Zoe-Kravitz-Channing-Tatum-wrap-arms-dinner-Italy.html\" target=\"_blank\">photos<\/a> obtained by <em>DailyMail<\/em>, they were seen embracing as they left dinner at a waterfront restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>In a new interview with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/articles\/zoe-kravitz-director-debut-pussy-island-naomi-ackie-channing-tatum-11660652570\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Wall Street Journal<\/em><\/a>, Kravitz said she had Tatum in mind when writing the script for her new movie. <span style=\"color: black\">She was seeking &#8220;someone who hadn&#8217;t played a dark character before,\u201d and thought Tatum was the perfect fit, \u201cbecause I think that&#8217;s exciting to watch someone who&#8217;s mostly played boy next door, good guy, love interest, all of that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text\"><span style=\"color: black\">She continued, &#8220;I felt, even from afar, before I knew him, that he was a feminist and that he wasn&#8217;t afraid of exploring that darkness, because he knows he&#8217;s not that,&#8221; she said. &#8220;That&#8217;s why I was drawn to him and wanted to meet with him. And I was right.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"body-text\">Kravitz also talked about the process of working with the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/channing-tatum-new-magic-mike-film\/\"><em>Magic Mike<\/em><\/a> actor (who will star alongside <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/naomi-ackie-whitney-houston-biopic-first-look\/\"><em>I Wanna Dance with Somebody<\/em><\/a>&#8216;s Naomi Ackie).\u00a0&#8220;When you make things with people it&#8217;s a very sacred space, and when you&#8217;re compatible with somebody creatively it often opens up other channels, because you&#8217;re kind of sharing all of yourself.&#8221; She added, &#8220;I&#8217;m really grateful that this movie has brought him [Tatum] into my life that way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Set for a 2023 release, Kravitz co-wrote the <em>Pussy Island<\/em> script with E.T. Feigenbaum and said the story was \u201cborn out of a lot of anger and frustration around the lack of conversation about the treatment of women, specifically in industries that have a lot of money in them, like Hollywood, the tech world, all of that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The film follows Frida (Ackie), a cocktail waitress, who gets invited to billionaire tech mogul Slater King\u2019s (Tatum) private island where things go awry. \u201cThe title is the seed of the story,\u201d she told the outlet. \u201cIt represents this time where it would be acceptable for a group of men to call a place that, and the illusion that we\u2019re out of that time now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re anxiously awaiting the premiere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31863,"featured_media":41538,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[23,3324,16],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v20.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Zo\u00eb Kravitz Was \u2018Drawn\u2019 to Channing Tatum Before Dating Him<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In a new interview, Zo\u00eb Kravitz details how \u2018grateful\u2019 she is that her new film \u2018Pussy Island\u2019 brought Channing Tatum into her life\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/zoe-kravitz-channing-tatum-pussy-island\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Zo\u00eb Kravitz Says She Was &#039;Drawn&#039;
