“This was the first time I’ve ever sung in front of anyone,” Tatum said at the time. “I’ve sung to my daughter,and she cried every time.”

The star also admitted he’d never felt like much of a crooner, saying, “No, I’ve never been a singer.”

Despite his reservations about the part, Tatum said he “spent about three months preparing” for the role.

“It’s the most I’ve ever prepped for a six-minute section in a movie,” he said. “We went over Christmas and New Year’s [in 2014], so I had all that time to let it gestate. I let it sink into my bones over the holiday.”

He added, “When I’m nervous about something, I drill it to a point that is probably unhealthy, but as long as it works even halfway, I’m happy at the end of the torturous day.”
