Tatum's shoulder surgery comes months after he revealed in September 2025 that he suffered an injury on the set of "Avengers: Doomsday." While speaking to Variety, the TV personality explained that he was sidelined after getting wounded in the leg.

The actor, who enjoyed performing his own stunts, was forced to allow his stunt double to do the heavy lifting while he shot close-ups. Tatum confessed that the pain in his leg wasn't as bad as the pain in his heart, despite enduring intensive physical therapy.

"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 explained. "I just hate getting old. In my mind, I'm literally still 30 years old — 26, if I'm honest."

Tatum's latest injury comes months after he reflected on the end of his marriage to Jenna Dewan. The Blast covered the story, reporting that he recalled channeling his experiences with his ex while filming "Roofman."

"Jenna and I are good now, but it was a painful break to have that fall apart, especially being so young," Tatum claimed. He noted that they had tried to save their marriage for about a year and a half, but ultimately failed to overcome their differences.
