At the premiere of her directorial debut on Thursday, Zoë Kravitz took a moment for a special thank you for the film’s star, and her fiancé, . Ahead of the screening at Los Angeles’ DGA Theatre, while Kravitz was thanking the cast and crew who worked on the project, she told the crowd she was “going to take just one second to talk about Channing fucking Tatum,” before reading a note she had written down in her notebook. “From producing to performing to the pep talks to holding my head or my feet while I cried on the bathroom floor because I thought I fucked it all up, thank you for letting me be a complete ODC psycho control freak.
Thank you for your patience,” she said. “Making this film with you has been an awfully great adventure. Thank you for trusting me to female direct you.
It’s really very cool to get to make a movie, but when you get to do it with the love of your life, it’s even cooler.” The couple, who got engaged last year, also made their red carpet debut at the event. Zoe Kravitz reads a thank you letter to Channing Tatum at the premiere of Kravitz directed and co-wrote the film, a psychological thriller that stars Tatum as Slater King, a tech billionaire who meets cocktail waitress Frida (Naomi Ackie) at his fundraising gala.
He invites her to join him and his friends on a vacation to his private island, where things begin to go awry. Admitting that public speaking is her biggest fear, Kravitz also used her premiere night speech to thank.
