Who is in the Magic Mike Live UK cast?
The names of the cast haven't yet been announced, but we did see them perform on the Britain's Got Talent 2018 final... So we know they're pretty good!
We also know that Big Brother star Lotan Carter is among the cast after being spotted in their BGT performance. He was previously a stripper and a Dreamboys hunk - so he's definitely got the experience!
Will Channing Tatum be in Magic Mike Live UK?
Speaking on The Graham Norton Show on 8th June, Channing was asked whether he'd be appearing in the show - and cryptically answered, "Only if I get back in shape."
So, not a complete no!
He also revealed some details about the show, joking that fans "wouldn't be disappointed" and added that "There is a lot of sliding involved on a wooden stage!"

One of our favourite actors Channing Tatum popped in for a chat back in September last year, so of course we couldn't let him leave without asking him about those rumours regarding a Magic Mike tour coming to the UK - before it was confirmed on the BGT final, of course.
Asking the big question, Channing admitted he's "hoping" the Magic Mike show can come to the UK, but revealed there were a lot of things to sort out.
He said, "There is a lot of pieces that have to come into focus, the venue, which we have to find, which in my opinion is one of the hardest and most important elements of it."
The actor then revealed he'd love to dance in the show himself, but jokingly admitted he has a bit of a 'dad bod' compared to the other guys in the show.
He added, "The guys that are on our stage, you would be like 'put your shirt back on'. They look like they are drawn on, they're not even real."
We think you look great Channing! 😍
