‘Magic Mike 2’ Cast News: ‘Orange Is The New Black’ Actor & Taye Diggs Joining Channing Tatum & Others For ‘XXL’ Road Trip? [VIDEO]
With the highly anticipated Magic Mike sequel expected to hit theaters in 2015, scores of women are dying to know just which of their favorite male actors will join Channing Tatum in the newest story about male strippers at a Tampa club.
'Dancing With The Stars' Contestant Joining Cast of 'Magic Mike: XXL'?
While most of the original cast is expected to be back for the film, fans could see other new faces as well-including Murder in the First star Taye Diggs and Orange is the New Black actor Matt McGorry.
Rumors about Diggs potentially joining the cast of the film have been flying for a while, though the 43-year-old actor confirmed to Zap2It on June 9 that he'd love to be in the movie if he's asked.
'Magic Mike: XXl' Will Be 'Exponentially Crazier' Than First Movie?
"I want there to be. Maybe if I start saying yes it will happen, but I don't want to jinx it," he said. "I'm a fan of Channing Tatum's and I would love to be invited to the party. I had an issue with the fact that there were no black people in the first one. That upset me. So I would love to be the first."
Though if he is cast he would be the first non-white cast member to feature as a stripper, other Caucasian faces could be in the running as well, like McGorry.
A 'lost audition tape' for McGorry recently surfaced on the internet, and while he appears to be auditioning for the movie, the video was just a skit for College Humor.
The video, which shows him mistakenly thinking he is auditioning for the role of a stripper, but is actually only auditioning for the role of a Starbucks barista, also features him trying to be cast differently, as he pretends to spill coffee on himself, throws his script, rips open his shirt and starts dancing.
"I was just shaking off the extra liquid from my chest, my groin and my killer abs," he jokes in the video.
Magic Mike: XXL is slated to hit theaters July 3, 2015.
