Channing was seen on his latest date with Inka one day after he revealed he had undergone a 63-pound body transformation.

The 6-foot-1-inch actor shared mirror selfies taken months part and noted that he had gained weight for the movie Josephine, filmed in mid-2024, and then slimmed down dramatically for the movie Roofman, which shot months later. He said he was now back up to 205 pounds.

“Grateful for my chef/nutritionist/witch. Grateful for my trainer. I couldn’t make these big swings in my weight without you guys,” he wrote. “But I won’t be doing anymore fat roles haha. It’s to hard on the body and to hard to take off now [sic]. But damn when I look at these pics it’s just wild what the human body and will can do.”
