The trailer for Magic Mike's Last Dance has finally arrived. The title will be the third film to follow Channing Tatum's Mike Lane, a stripper who dreams of owning his own business who was originally introduced in 2012's Magic Mike. After stepping back from the 2015 sequel Magic Mike XXl, which he shot but did not direct, original director Steven Soderbergh has returned to helm the new film, which is due in theaters on February 10, 2023.
Today, Warner Bros. dropped the official first trailer for Magic Mike's Last Dance, revealing a closer look at the anticipated sequel. Along with sharing more plot details, the trailer brings to life a moment where Tatum dances for Salma Hayek, which previously was only shared as a first-look image. In addition to providing a reversal of Salma Hayek’s famous striptease scene from 1996’s From Dusk Till Dawn, the trailer reveals that the dance is just a prelude to a sweeping romance that could potentially change MIke’s life forever.

Everything The Magic Mike 3 Trailer Reveals About Last Dance
The trailer for Magic Mike's Last Dance proves that Mike's storyline will be more complicated than those expecting a simple dance movie, just like it was in the original Magic Mike. The film will follow him to London, where Hayek's character encourages him to put his talents to use on the grandest stage yet, making him something of a fish out of water. It seems that Hayek will also show off her own dance moves during the film, though it's not clear exactly to what degree she will be involved in the finished stage production.
The trailer also teases that one of the major characters in the film will be the daughter of Hayek's character. She is also dealing with her own romantic entanglements that mirror the complications of Mike's love life. It seems that both of them will be faced with the ultimate test of whether it is more important to have love or money in one's life as they strive to find a path toward having both. The clip also reveals more about the ensemble cast, which includes We Are Lady Parts' Juliette Motamed, Johnny English Strikes Again's Vicki Pepperdine, and Ackley Bridge's Ayub Khan Din.
There will be a cameo from Kim (Caitlin Gerard), who Mike stripped for in the original film. However, something that is conspicuously missing in the Magic Mike's Last Dance trailer is the ensemble of other dancers that were featured in the previous two films (except for Magic Mike's Matthew McConaughey and Alex Pettyfer, neither of whom returned for XXL). While it seems that Mike can be seen talking to one of them over the phone, meaning there may be a cameo or two, the dancers played by Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, and more, will likely not be featured prominently.

Salma Hayek Tells Story Of Her Pet Owl Vomiting On Harry Styles' Head
Salma Hayek, star of The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, revealed that her pet owl once vomited on pop star Harry Styles’ head. Hayek first appeared as Sonia, the wife of hitman Darius Kincaid (Samuel L. Jackson), in 2017’s The Hitman's Bodyguard. After being a surprise hit at the box office, the buddy comedy will be followed up by a sequel releasing in theaters June 16. The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard will see Hayek step into the spotlight after appearing in the first film for only a few minutes.
After starring alongside Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson in the action sequel, Hayek is poised to have a huge year. The Phase 4 Marvel film Eternals will see Hayek star as Ajak, the leader of the ancient superhero team. After Eternals debuts on November 5, it won’t be long until Hayek is seen in Ridley Scott's House of Gucci alongside Adam Driver and Lady Gaga on November 24. While making the press rounds for The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, Hayek has been the subject of various anecdotes, such as her slapping Reynolds shockingly hard, and now she has an even more bizarre story to share.

Appearing on The Ellen Show to promote The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard, Hayek recalled a time in which her pet owl, Kering, landed and vomited on Styles’ head. Though she was hesitant to name the “very important celebrity” whose head was the victim of this unfortunate incident, Hayek revealed towards the end of the interview that it was in fact Styles, the former One Direction member turned Dunkirk actor and solo singer. Watch Hayek recount the incident below beginning at the 6:50 mark:
With The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard releasing June 16, Hayek is just about finished making press rounds for the film. However, it won’t be long until Marvel begins the promotional campaign for Eternals, which Hayek will likely be a huge part of considering her prominent role in the film as Eternal Ajak. Hopefully, Hayek will have more interesting anecdotes to share then that could include her high-profile co-stars like Angelina Jolie and Lady Gaga.
Hayek is certainly no stranger to action films after rising to prominence with roles in Robert Rodriguez’s Desperado and From Dusk till Dawn. Her breakthrough role then came in 2002 with Frida, for which she was nominated for an Oscar. While she hasn’t starred in many action flicks since then, she will make her highly-anticipated return to the genre with her prominent role in The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard followed by her superhero debut in Eternals.
