Channing Tatum Shares Update Amid Surgery Recovery

The “She’s the Man” actor took to social media on Saturday, March 28, to share a hopeful update following his shoulder surgery.

“This one has been the lowest of the lows,” he captioned the post. “But starting to come out the other side. Feeling better than I have in months mentally. 6 weeks till we start the [‘Isle of Man Tourist Trophy Race’] motorcycle love story. So let the grind begin.”

In the video, which was shared via Instagram, Tatum showed off his healing scar, explaining that he’s “getting some mobility back.”

“It’s atrophied so much, though. I feel like a toddler in the gym. Good news is, though, the doctor finally gave me the green light, so I can train,” he said. “It’s a good day finally.”

Tatum continued, “This has been a rough one. I’ve been mentally up and down in my head, more than I think I’ve ever been in my life. It’s a beautiful day today. I’ve gotten to train. I’ll give you guys some updates along the way, but I’ve got six weeks until the next film. It’s gonna be a grind. Wish me some luck. Have a good weekend.”

The actor first revealed his severe shoulder injury in a February 4 Instagram post.

While he did not go into detail about the cause of the injury, Tatum captioned a black and white photo from his hospital bed, “Just another day. Another challenge. This one is gonna be hard. But whatever. Let’s get it in.”

Tatum—who is set to star alongside Brad Pitt in the upcoming “Isle of Man” project—received a ton of love and support from friends and fans.

“hang in there champ 🫡” comedian Theo Von wrote.

“Sending you love and strength brother… I know (better than most) that you’re unstoppable!” outdoorsman Bear Grylls commented.

Singer Rita Ora simply wrote, “Good luck ❤️,” while Carey Hart commented, “Get it 👊👊👊”

Tatum previously opened up about an injury on set of “Avengers: Doomsday.”

“It’s not about the pain I feel in the moment. It’s knowing I can’t take this back. And now I know what the next six months of my life will be like,” Tatum told Variety in September 2025. “I just hate getting old. In my mind, I’m literally still 30 years old — 26, if I’m honest.”
