"Magic Mike" will be hitting the big screen with its sequel "Magic Mike XXL". After three years of waiting, Channing Tatum and other former cast members will be reunited for one last fiery performance to blow everyone's minds. Most of the details that can be expected from the film have already been released, further fuelling the anticipation of fans.

"Magic Mike XXL" will be picking up three years after the legendary Mike bowed out from his stripper life at the height of his career in order to live a normal life. But as they, say old habits die hard, with Mike finding himself participating in a last blow out performance in Myrtle Beach with the well-known Tampa Kings on his side. Reunited with the old gang, they try to learn new moves that will definitely burn the house down "Tampa Kings style".

In a recent interview with Nightline, Channing Tatum, Magic Mike himself, has shared how he felt about the cast mates that he had the privilege of working with for two films in a row.

"We wrote this thin characters into the first movie, and I really think that these amazing actors came in with these unbelievably fleshed out characters and fell in love on the movie and just enjoyed being together," said Tatum

It is clear that the actors in the movie enjoy their roles no matter how taxing the preparations are. News reports claim that in order to ready themselves for the movie, several cast members were asked to shed a few pounds and gain more muscle to really look the part of a stripper on the big screen. The cast even trained together and supported each other, especially when it came to their very strict no-carb diet.

"Magic Mike XXL" will hit theatres this July 1, so get ready to be mesmerized.
