Joe Manganiello’s Magic Mike XXL is Made for Women

Posted on the 17 November 2014 by Thevault @The_Vault

Joe Manganiello’s Magic Mike XXL — the sequel to the 2012 male stripper pic Magic Mike —  just wrapped production in Georgia. While Matthew McConaughey won’t be returning for the second installment, stars Joe Manganiello, Alex Pettyfer and Matt Bomer are all reprising their roles.

And with Channing Tatum co-writing and producingXXL in addition to starring in the film, he’s giving viewers more of exactly what they want, as he explained:

Channing Tatum:

It sucks that we do these movies for such efficient means and time. The first movie took 22 or 23 days, and this movie took 29 days. Those guys are so much fun — they’re the whole reason why I wanted to make a second one. They were a discovery for me. They just filled this world out — that I think you feel in [Magic Mike], but you don’t get to be with them and hang out in the movie like you want to. I was like, ‘If we get to make a second one, that’s what it will be. It will just be a guy’s story, but made for women.’

TIME: That’s what America wants.

Tatum:

We got Joe Manganiello naked as much as possible. Everyone in the world: you’re welcome.
