Channing Tatum has joked that the upcoming Magic Mike sequel will feature less story in favour of nudity.

The actor returns alongside castmembers including Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello in the follow-up to the 2012 hit film.

Teasing what fans can expect, Tatum told EW: “No plot. Just a bunch of naked dudes sitting around doing dude stuff.

“We read all the message boards, and people were like, ‘Less story. Less plot. Just dudes’ things’. And we listened to that.”

The actor went even further, promising that fans will have plenty to enjoy on-screen.

“Basically, we all were taking penis-enlargement pills since the last one, so we weren’t worried about what temperature the room was when we came out to do our dances,” he said. “That’s what XXL means.”

We’ll find how serious he is when Magic Mike XXL opens on July 31.
