    On the competition show to premiere sometime in 2021, a group of men will compete to be top stripper for a cash prize and the opportunity to perform with ‘Magic Mike Live’ cast in Las Vegas.

    Apr 12, 2021

    AceShowbiz –
    Channing Tatum is revisiting his stripper roots to launch a competition series in search of the real “Magic Mike”.

    The actor, who worked as an exotic dancer to make ends meet during his youth, turned his experiences into the 2012 movie “Magic Mike”, and followed it up with the 2015 sequel, “Magic Mike XXL”.

    He’s since expanded the franchise to include a steamy male revue in Las Vegas and London, and is currently having the original film adapted for a Broadway musical.

    Now Tatum has reteamed with director Steven Soderbergh to develop a reality show aimed at transforming a group of men into top strippers, with the best contestant crowned the Real Magic Mike. They will also score a cash prize and have the opportunity to perform with the cast of “Magic Mike Live” in Sin City.

    “The Real Magic Mike” has already been optioned by U.S. streaming service bosses at HBO Max, with plans to premiere the series later this year (2021).

    In a press release about the show, HBO Max’s head of original content Sarah Aubrey said, “From box office hits to sold-out live shows, ‘Magic Mike’ has proven to be a pop culture juggernaut that continues to delight people across the globe.”

    She continued, “We’re excited to work with Channing, Steven and the team behind ‘Magic Mike Live’ to continue this successful franchise that celebrates self-confidence and sexiness both inside and out.”

    Warner Bros. Unscripted Television president Mike Darnell chimed in, ” ‘Magic Mike’ is one of Warner Bros.’ most iconic franchises. We couldn’t be more excited to be working with Channing, Steven and HBO Max on an all-new vision of this amazing and legendary brand. We’re looking forward to giving fans a front row seat as we search the country for undiscovered talent.”

      The ‘Magic Mike’ actor is reuniting with filmmaker duo Phil Lord and Chris Miller for Universal’s long-gestating big screen project, the classic Monsters movie reboot.

      Nov 22, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Actor Channing Tatum is reuniting with his “21 Jump Street” directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller to star in a Universal Classic Monsters movie reboot.
      It’s not known which of the Universal Pictures’ characters the film will focus on, but it’s described as “a modern-day, tongue-in-cheek thriller,” according to Deadline sources.
      The Untitled Monster Project will be based on an original idea by Tatum’s filmmaking partner Reid Carolin, a producer on the Magic Mike franchise, and will be developed into a script by Wes Tooke.
      Universal Classic Monsters is the name given to the group of horror and sci-fi films produced by Universal Pictures officials in the early-to-mid 20th Century, with beloved characters including Frankenstein, The Mummy, Dracula, and The Invisible Man, which was recently remade with Elisabeth Moss and Aldis Hodge.

      A Dracula remake by Universal was released in 2014. Titled “Dracula Untold”, it chronicled an origin story of the titular character and starred Luke Evans, Dominic Cooper, Sarah Gadon, and Charles Dance.
      Meanwhile, a new adaptation of “The Mummy” came out in 2017. Directed by Alex Kurtzman, it followed a soldier who’s trapped in an ancient tomb. It starred Tom Cruise, Annabelle Wallis, Sofia Boutella, Jake Johnson, Courtney B. Vance, and Russell Crowe.
      The Monsterverse has been in the works for a long time. Chris Morgan, who headed the project Kurtzman, once said, “We’re exploring issues of family identity and questions of, ‘Where do I belong in the world?’ ”
      “We’re creating a mythology, so we’re looking at this canon and thinking, ‘What are the rules?’ ” Kurtzman explained. “What can we break and what are the ones that are untouchable? The idea is that we have a deep bench of brains to consult with about how their monster fits into our world as we go forward.”

      Jessie J Seemingly Addresses Her On-Off Relationship With Channing Tatum in New Single

      The ‘Price Tag’ singer appears to talk about her romance with the ‘Magic Mike’ actor and the reason why they frequently broke up and got back together again.
      Sep 23, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Jessie J looks set to open up on her relationship with “Magic Mike” hunk Channing Tatum on her new album.
      In lyrics to a new track, titled “Simply Be in Love”, which the star previewed during an Instagram Live broadcast, the singer appears reflects on her on-off relationship with the actor, whom she started dating in 2018 after Channing split from his wife Jenna Dewan.
      On the track, Jessie suggests the reason for their frequent splits has been because they raced into their relationship too quickly, crooning, “You’re always dreaming about tomorrow, and I’m still overthinking yesterday / Where you go I know I want to follow, let’s make a promise on today.”
      “Take it slow, baby steps, so we don’t ruin what comes next / Just be still, just stay calm, so we’re not rushing what we are / Pressure off, just have fun, it’s not a race, no need to run / If it’s forever, let’s just simply be in love.”

      Speaking about the tune, the “Price Tag” singer shared, “I wrote this song about when you first meet someone and you want to steam ahead. Sometimes running can ruin a foundation that a relationship needs, which is to just be chill, stay still and enjoy the moment.”
      While a release date for Jessie’s new record has yet to be confirmed, it will be her first since her 2018 holiday album, “This Christmas Day”.
      She once joked about recruiting the Hollywood hunk as an opening act for her next tour, “I’m thinking about calling my next tour ‘Magic Mike and I’ and having Chan open for me as a stripper. He’d do it too! That would sell some tickets, eh?”

      The ‘Magic Mike’ actor teams up with Justin Bieber’s manager to produce a young adult adaptation of William Shakespeare’s iconic character Lady Macbeth.
      Aug 2, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Channing Tatum is taking on a new role as producer of a project for Amazon Studios.
      The 40-year-old “Magic Mike” star will team with Scooter Braun and the streaming giant for an as-yet-untitled Lady Macbeth young adult musical feature.
      According to editors at The Hollywood Reporter, Tatum will produce through his Free Association production company, alongside partners Reid Carolin, Peter Kiernan and Michael Parets. Braun will produce through his SB Projects company, alongside Scott Manson and James Shin.
      Details of the plot are under wraps at present, but the publication reports it will potentially feature a teenage version of William Shakespeare’s iconic character Lady Macbeth who “grapples with her own morality as she contends with the dreadful consequences of her ambition.”
      Lady Macbeth is a key figure in Shakespeare’s “Macbeth”, the tale of a Scottish general who murders his way into kingship while descending into madness from guilt and belief in a prophecy told by witches. Lady Macbeth is his wife – a calculating woman who prods her husband into murder and war.
      John McPhail of “Anna and the Apocalypse” will direct the project, which will be written by S.J. Inwards.
