    By Express News Service

    The latest addition to the Magic Mike series titled Magic Mike’s Last Dance is all set to release on 10 February 2023. Channing Tatum plays exotic dancer/performer Magic Mike in the film series created by director Steven Soderbergh.

    The film is loosely based on Tatum’s real-life experience of working as a stripper in Florida. Magic Mike’s Last Dance was initially planned to release directly on HBO’s streaming site HBO Max. It has now been confirmed to hit theatres next year.

    The move comes after David Zaslav was recently made the CEO of Warner Bros. According to reports, Zaslav had made the move to give the film a proper silver screen send-off to the beloved franchise. It was previously announced that Westworld actor Thandie Newton had left the project due to personal reasons.

    It was recently confirmed that Salma Hayek is roped in to do Newton’s role in the film. According to Channing Tatum, the film will not be a “traditional love story.” According to the official synopsis, the film will follow Hayek’s character getting stuck in an awful strip show, eventually leading her down a rabbit hole of discoveries.

    LOS ANGELES: Hollywood star Channing Tatum, director Steven Soderbergh and writer Reid Carolin are reuniting for the third installment in the popular “Magic Mike” franchise.

    Set up at Warner Bros, the new film is titled “Magic Mike’s Last Dance” and will premiere exclusively on HBO Max.

    Tatum portrayed the titular character Mike Lane in the 2012 comedy-drama movie “Magic Mike”, which follows the life of a male stripper and his life at the club, and reprised the role for the 2015 sequel “Magic Mike XXL”.

    The first two films grossed nearly USD 300 million worldwide and, in 2017, the franchise spawned the successful stage show Magic Mike Live, reported Deadline.

    Tatum said he is excited to team up with his “Magic Mike” collaborators and HBO Max.

    “The stripperverse will never be the same,” the leading man said.

    “As soon as I saw what Channing, Reid, and the Magic Mike choreographic team did with the live show, I said, ‘We have to make another movie.’ Mike Lane’s dream of connecting people through dance must be realized,” Soderbergh added.

    Toby Emmerich, Chairman of Warner Bros Pictures Group, said the team is thrilled “to be back in business” with Tatum, Soderbergh and their creative team to bring back Magic Mike’s wonderful combination of dance, drama, romance and humour.

    Gregory Jacobs, who directed the 2015 hit “Magic Mike XXL”, is also returning to produce along with Carolin, Nick Wechsler and Peter Kiernan.

    The live shows inspired the upcoming HBO Max reality competition series “Finding Magic Mike”, which premieres on December 16.
