Magic Mike XXL Trailer Screengrab H 2015
Channing Tatum is getting gritty in the first trailer for Magic Mike XXL.
The actor stopped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Wednesday for the world premiere of the trailer, which opens with Tatum as the title character, showing off his moves in a garage-like setting — possibly taking a break from designing a piece of furniture.
Either way, it’s one of the very few moments Tatum — or anyone — is shown wearing a shirt.

Directed by Gregory Jacobs, the Magic Mike follow-up has Tatum, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Alex Pettyfer and Gabriel Iglesias reprising their roles alongside new additions Jada Pinkett Smith, Amber Heard, Stephen “tWitch” Boss and Michael Strahan. The sequel, which was co-written by Tatum and Reid Carolin, checks back in with the group of male strippers as they embark on a trade convention. The first film’s director, Steven Soderbergh, returns as editor and cinematographer (though under his pseudonyms Mary Ann Bernard and Peter Andrews, respectively).
