Magic Mike took movie goers by storm in 2012, and the franchise boosted not just two sequels and a stage show but also the profiles of the cast. Nearly a decade later, the stars of the film are some of the most sought-after men in Hollywood.
Magic Mike follows Channing Tatum's as he makes ends meet in any way he can. Although he does handyman jobs, the Florida residence makes the big bucks when dancing on stage at a strip club.
The comedy-drama, which was directed by Steven Soderbergh, was loosely inspired by Tatum’s own experience as a stripper before he got his big Hollywood break “It’s not all my life, but it’s definitely all my experiences,” the Step Up star told The Hollywood Reporter in February 2012 ahead of the film's release. “I basically poured all my memories and stories out. We just kind of wrote something entirely unique to itself.”
