Channing Tatum: I Learned to Act in Auditions, Not in Movies

Channing Tatum poses with co-stars Amber Heard and Jada Pinkett Smith while attending the premiere of their new movie Magic Mike XXL on Wednesday evening (July 1) in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

The trio was also joined by Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, and Adam Rodriguez.

Earlier in the day, the cast toured the Amsterdam Canals together on a boat.

“I learned how to act in auditions, not even in movies, but by reading for Thug Number Two or Thug Number One,” Channing told Vanity Fair for his new cover story. “You’re trying to learn by reading three lines and hoping that you get the part. I’ve been at it for 10 years.”

FYI: Amber is wearing a Cushnie et Ochs dress. Jada is wearing a Versace dress with Ruthie Davis shoes and a Monica Vinader bracelet on the carpet. She is wearing a Blumarine gown on the canal. Channing is wearing Tod’s shoes.
