The story is inspired by Channing Tatum’s pre-Hollywood days as a male dancer--The biopic follows a newcomer to the world of exotic dancing (Alex Pettyfer) who is tempted by an older woman (Demi Moore) as well as bond with a mentor to the younger stripper--The titular Magic Mike (Tatum)
Keough beat out Lindsay Lohan for the role of Pettyfer's girlfriend.
Matthew McConaughey was just cast as Dallas, a former stripper who now owns the Xquisite club where Mike works. Joe Manganiello will play Big Dick Richie While White Collar's Matt Bomer also stars as another stripper.
Reid Carolin pens the screenplay.The idea of Magic Mike came about when Soderbergh and Tatum were working together on the espionage drama Haywire.
Tatum, Nick Wechsler, Gregory Jacobs and Carolin will produce the pic.
E! also says that the dialogue in the pic will include such lines as McConaughey telling his employees "I want you to go back and f—k that mirror like you mean it",
Soderbergh is reportedly not against throwing in some full frontal male nudity either But which of the film's hunky stars would bold enough?...
I doubt they really want an NC-17 rating...
Filming is slated to begin in September for a release in 2012
