Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum Have Red Carpet Date Night at ‘Blink Twice’ Premiere in L.A. ArticlePure

It’s date night for Zoë Kravitz and Channing Tatum!

The couple stepped out for a red carpet date night at the Los Angeles premiere of Blink Twice, their newest film.

To celebrate her directorial debut, Kravitz, 35, was dressed to the nines. She wore a sophisticated silk black backless gown with triangle-shaped cutouts by her waist.

The sleek sleeveless Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello twist dress also featured a silk satin bow. It was made complete with a ruching effect at the midpoint of her waist that fanned out on the dress’ skirt. She wore Raven slingback pumps in satin crepe.

Kravitz kept the elegant look simple and wore a couple of rings and one pair of dangle drop earrings that had a star charm. Her glam also remained simple, with a deep red lipstick and soft pink eyeshadow. Her hair was in a slick back bun.

Her fiancé and the star of her film, Tatum, 44, walked the red carpet by her side in a black suit, white button down, a white pocket square, and black leather loafers.

The two, who have been engaged since 2023, were previously seen together after the New York City premiere of the Tatum-starring Fly Me to the Moon, where they sweetly held hands in the theater. In the clip, which was captured in July, Tatum stopped to look for his bride-to-be and slowed his pace to allow her to catch up with him. Once together, he reached for her hand before they were escorted through the theater doors.

Blink Twice, which also stars Naomi Ackie, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Alia Shawkat and more, was formerly called Pussy Island, but Kravitz changed the name ahead of the release.

She told Entertainment Weekly in July, “It was made very clear to me that ‘p—y’ is a word that we, our society, are not ready to embrace yet.”

“There were a lot of roadblocks along the way, whether it be the MPAA not wanting to put it on a poster, or a billboard, or a kiosk; movie theaters not wanting to put it on a ticket,” she explained.

Additionally, women seemed deterred from the film due to the previous title, Kravitz told the outlet.

“Interestingly enough,” she said, “after researching it, women were offended by the word, and women seeing the title were saying, ‘I don’t want to see that movie,’ which is part of the reason I wanted to try and use the word, which is trying to reclaim the word, and not make it something that we’re so uncomfortable using.”

Kravitz added, “But we’re not there yet. And I think that’s something I have the responsibility as a filmmaker to listen to. I care about people seeing the film, and I care about how it makes people feel.”

Tatum, who first met Kravitz when she cast him in this film in 2021, has done nothing but gush over the project and her work in the leadup to its release.

In January, he shared an Instagram carousel of Kravitz hard at work, writing, “MISS DIRECTOR LADY HERSELF IN ACTION!! ABSOLUTELY CRUSHING IT,” Tatum wrote in his all-caps caption to the post. “CAN’T WAIT FOR YALL TO SEE.”

“I have so much that I can’t wait to share, because this project is near and dear to my heart in more ways than I can count,” he wrote on Instagram in April.

Blink Twice will be in theaters Aug. 23.
