Magic Mike 2 In The Works; Channing Tatum: "Yes, Yes And Yes!"
Actor Channing Tatum confirmed that another "Magic Mike" film is coming.
In an interview with Glamour UK titled "Channing Tatum Twitter Takeover," Tatum replied to the question "Magic Mike 2"? with "Yes, yes and yes!" He continued: "We're working on the concept now. We want to flip the script and make it bigger."
'Magic Mike" co-star Joe Manganiello's told Hollywood.com he would prefer shooting a "Magic Mike" prequel: "We're actually talking about the possibility of doing the prequel, because if you do the sequel, then you lose Mike (Tatum). Otherwise, what's Mike going to do? He's going to come back for one big heist ... so, you would do the prequel, how they got there."
Tatum also confessed that he would consider playing the lead of Christian Grey in a film adaptation of the book "Fifty Shades of Grey" under one condition: "I'd only be allowed if my wife [Jenna Dewan] was Ana," he tweeted. "She's read the books, so I don't think she'd be impressed if she couldn't be Ana!"
Tatum also told Glamour UK in the Twitter interview that it was awkward filming some scenes in the movie. He said: "It's awkward every time you have to be in a thong in front of anyone, I don't know how you girls do it!"
He also went on to say his co-star Joe Manganiello had the most stripping talent "Joe Manganiello is a natural but Matthew McConaughey has the experience- I think it's a toss-up between the two."
"Magic Mike" has grossed $72 million to date since its release, according to Celebrity Pop. Tatum is currently working with film producers on a new Evel Knievel flick.
