Channing Tatum & Sandra Bullock Met After Their Kids Got In A Fight At School

Channing Tatum is all set for Magic Mike 3 but before that he will appear alongside Sandra Bullock in The Lost City. However, Channing Tatum and Sandra Bullock didn’t have their first meeting on the set of the movie. The pair had an unlikely interaction because of their daughters.

The actors admitted to their unusual interaction in an interview with New York Times. Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum met when their daughters had a huge fight in preschool. Tatum said he has ‘blocked out’ some of the details of the encounter.

Bullock and Tatum were called to meet with teachers after Laila Bullock and Everly Tatum were involved in a battle to prove who was the ‘alpha.’ Channing shares Everly, eight, with ex-wife Jenna Dewan while Sandra adopted Laila, eight, as a single parent. The actress said it was pretty intense and there’s some PTSD attached to it.

We met through drama, in the principal’s office at preschool. We were called in together because Everly and Laila were trying to alpha the other one out, and we prayed it was the other’s child that caused the damage.

Fortunately, the girls get along well now. The parents joked they took on the movie so their kids could spend time together in a ‘COVID-safe’ environment. Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum along side Daniel Radcliffe and Brad Pitt star in the upcoming comedy action film, The Lost City.

Channing and Sandra actually met for the first time at the actress’ birthday party when Tatum was not famous. The Magic Mike star added that Sandra Bullock was the first celebrity person he ever met. However, this wasn’t a proper meet up nor as stressful as getting a call from the school principal.
