Independent Films, Movie Reviews, Interviews, Film Profiles
Channing Tatum and Matthew McConaughey are rock stars! They were in high spirits when I sat down with them to talk about their much-talked about film, "Magic Mike" from Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh. In the film, Tatum is Mike, a struggling enterpreneur by day, and the headliner of an all-male revue called the Kings of Tampa by night. McConaughey is Dallas, the club's owner. Featuring Matt Bomer, Adam Rodriguez, Kevin Nash, Joe Manganiello, Olivia Munn, Riley Keough, and Cody Horn.
In this interview, we talked about:
*** Tatum's background as a male stripper and how it informed the making of the movie
*** McConaughey's performance and his interest with his character
*** Putting on a thong for the very first time -- did it all fit in? Wait until you see Channing's reactions
*** The film's fantasy-fulfillment theme
