AceShowbiz - Channing Tatum flaunts his freestyle-dancing skill in a first clip of "Magic Mike". Introduced on stage by Matthew McConaughey, Tatum makes ladies hysterical as he starts to bust some elaborate dance moves and slowly strips off his clothes. Cody Horn is also seen watching Tatum's performance but she doesn't seem to be impressed by it.
In "Magic Mike", Tatum stars as Mike Matingano, who takes a young dancer named the Kid as his protege. Mike teaches the newbie some fine arts of partying, picking up ladies and making easy money. Also joining him in the cast ensemble are Alex Pettyfer, Olivia Munn, Joe Manganiello, Matthew Bomer and Riley Keough.
Despite having to show a lot of skin for the adult comedy movie, Tatum gets full support from his wife Jenna Dewan who is also a professional dancer. Telling E! News that she's proud of her husband, Dewan said, "I was prepared. I knew what was coming, but I think the movie is amazing. I'm happy for people to see it. He's good in it. I'm just so proud."
Praising Tatum's dance moves in the upcoming movie, the co-founder of "33andOut Productions" and "Iron Horse Entertainment" gushed, "I'm a dancer, I grew up as a dancer and he's an amazing dancer. But there were moments in that movie where I was like, 'I gotta give it to you - I could not have done that. That was amazing'."
"Magic Mike" will be released in the United States on June 29.
