Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum had real-life drama long before they co-starred in the new action-adventure movie “The Lost City.” (Watch the video below.)
The two, as they told it, were called into a preschool principal’s office because their daughters were fighting each other. The school simply wanted to know how the kids could arrive at a detente.
“We have two very very strong-willed little girls ... very much buttin’ heads,” Tatum explained on “The Late Late Show with James Corden ” on Wednesday.
One day after what Bullock said was another “altercation,” she got a call from the school and wondered whether she would have to contact Tatum or his ex-wife Jenna Dewan to yet again deal with the clashing kids.
But the school arrived at a novel solution: challenging the two girls with a competition to see who could be the nicest to the other.
“So they were like bringing each other little Dixie cups of water,” Bullock said.
