Channing Tatum was learning on the job early in his acting career. The 44-year-old movie star made his film debut in the drama ‘Coach Carter’ back in 2005 - but Channing thinks his acting skills have really matured in recent years.

Channing - who actually worked as a stripper and as a model before finding success in Hollywood - told ‘Extra’: “I was getting jobs before I knew what even acting was or how to do it.

“I was doing all, like, kinda onthe-job training in a way, just being like, ‘Okay, just say the line naturally,’ instead of actually understanding what acting is and what this, like, beautiful gift is.”

Channing has “learned so much” about acting from watching films. The ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ star shared: “I was watching movies and I’ve learned so much from movies, more than I’ve learned from school or anything else or books or anything.

“Movies are probably my longest relationship in my life. I don’t know, I just love them so much. They’re magical.”

Meanwhile, Channing recently revealed that he “won’t be doing anymore fat roles”.

The actor took to social media to reveal the physical transformation he made for ‘Josephine’, the upcoming thriller film, and Channing confirmed that he doesn’t intend to pile on the pounds for any future film roles.
