Magic Mike XXL, red carpetThe red carpets (generic term these days as they range in color from black, blue, green, etc) have been becoming more of a mini preview show for movie premieres the past couple of years.  Magic Mike XXL is no exception as male dancers began to show their moves in front of the press.

PLOT:

“It’s been three years since Mike Lane’s (Channing Tatum) retirement from stripping, but the former dancer misses the excitement and feeling of being on stage. Most of all, though, he misses the best friends that he ever had, the crew known as the Kings of Tampa. Opportunity comes knocking when the guys look him up as they travel to Myrtle Beach, S.C., for a stripper convention. With the promise of outrageous fun, a reinvigorated Mike can’t resist the chance to jump in and take it all off again.“
