Channing Tatum’s Movie Lines Had to Be Cut Because Sandra Bullock Couldn’t Stop Laughing

Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum seemingly had a ton of fun filming their latest movie, The Lost City. In fact, the pair were having so much fun that certain moments had to be cut because Bullock couldn't stop laughing.

During a new interview with Insider, Bullock revealed that at one point, Tatum began ad-libbing lines, during a scene where he and Brad Pitt are transporting Bullock's character to a getaway car. “There's a scene where they have to get me to a car. [Tatum] and that other actor—I can never remember his name, he's got blond hair,” Bullock joked about Pitt. “The directors had Channing ad-lib lines to us, and none of his lines were used because I was laughing so hard.”

While Tatum is known for his comedic roles in movies like 21 Jump Street and Hail, Caesar!, it turns out that he's just as riotous on his own. “He's crazy funny,” Bullock said of her co-star.

The Miss Congeniality actress joked that although Tatum's ad-libs were “stupid,” they still had her cracking up. She even recited one of them, where Tatum said, “When the shepherd goes to pie, you eat it.”

Although we won't be able to see Tatum's improv included in the movie, The Lost City will be hitting theaters this coming Friday, March 25. Following the release of this action comedy and the upcoming movie, Bullet Train, Bullock will be taking a break from acting.

She recently told Entertainment Weekly that she wants to spend more time with her kids, confessing, “I take my job very seriously when I’m at work. And I just want to be 24/7 with my babies and my family. That’s where I’m gonna be for a while.”

Here's hoping we get to see some of those outtakes from The Lost City while Bullock takes a well-deserved break.
