No one was more surprised than me at how much I enjoyed Magic Mike. My dude-crush on Channing Tatum is now undeniable, as is the majesty of this teaser for the unlikely-yet-impeccably-titled sequel, Magic Mike XXL.
Seriously, this thing is perfect in every way. From Tatum's bench spasms turned gravity-defying dance moves, to Joe Manganiello opening beverages through sheer cock strength, to the sassy "You're Welcome" title card, to the fact that this will seemingly be a film which attempts to glamorize Myrtle fucking Beach. But most of all I adore when Tatum tells Amber Heard his name, does a little spin move, doesn't quite stick the landing but MAINTAINS EYE CONTACT and then saunters off like a boss. You just can't teach that stuff.
Am I a little worried that Soderbergh and McConaughey are both AWOL? Sure. But I'm excited at the addition of Heard, Elizabeth Banks, Donald Glover and even Jada Pinkett Smith. If she does her weird Eartha Kitt voice from Gotham, I'll be over the moon.
Magic Mike XXL will make 50 Shades Of Gray look like a punk ass bitch on July 1st.
