Channing Tatum Declares End to Extreme Weight Changes for Film Roles

The actor shared his decision on Instagram, citing the physical toll of drastic weight fluctuations for movies like 'Josephine' and 'Roofman.'

Channing Tatum announced he will no longer accept roles requiring extreme weight changes, calling the process too taxing on his body.
The 44-year-old actor shared photos on Instagram showing his weight fluctuations: 235 pounds for 'Josephine,' 172 pounds for 'Roofman,' and his current weight of 205 pounds.
Tatum credited his genetics, chef, nutritionist, and trainer for helping him achieve these transformations but emphasized the unsustainable nature of such practices.
He highlighted how maintaining a ripped physique for roles like 'Magic Mike' involved unhealthy methods, including intense dieting and exhaustive workouts.
Tatum noted that age has made weight fluctuations more difficult, prompting his decision to prioritize his health moving forward.
