Tatum Cries Through Josephine at Sundance Premiere, Sparks Early Sensation
At Sundance’s Eccles Theater, the world premiere of Josephine moved audiences to tears as Channing Tatum admitted he cried five, six, and seven times while watching the film for the first time. The drama follows a young girl who witnesses a brutal sexual assault, with Tatum and Gemma Chan portraying her parents. Director Beth de Araújo spoke about crafting the story through a child’s perspective on female fear, while 8-year-old Mason Reeves—who plays Josephine—drew applause during a standout debut.
