Ready for more shirtless Channing Tatum?

The “Magic Mike” sequel has received its release date!

The male stripper follow-up, dubbed “Magic Mike XXL,” will dance its way into theaters on July 3, 2015, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Back in February, Channing hinted at plans for the sequel when he Tweeted a photo of himself and a bust of Mathew McConaughey with the caption, “What better way to start writing #MagicMike2 than with my old friend Dallas?” (referencing Matthew’s “Magic Mike” character).
