Thandiwe Newton to star opposite Channing Tatum in Magic Mike's Last Dance

Actor Thandiwe Newton will star opposite Channing Tatum in the upcoming third instalment of Magic Mike.

Titled Magic Mike's Last Dance, the film is set to be directed by Steven Soderbergh. The project brings back Reid Carolin, who wrote the first two movies. Plot details are currently not available, but the film is expected to wrap up the trilogy. The role Newton will play remains unclear.

Magic Mike is loosely based on Tatum's experiences as an 18-year-old stripper in Tampa, Florida. The 2012 film's success led to the sequel Magic Mike XXL in 2015, without Soderbergh in the director's chair.

Tatum later conceived and co-directed Magic Mike Live in Vegas, which expanded internationally with sold-out shows in London, Berlin and Australia. The show recently announced its first North American tour, with stops planned in Nashville and Miami. The live shows inspired the upcoming HBO Max reality competition series Finding Magic Mike, which is set to premiere on December 16.

Magic Mike's Last Dance will skip theatres and stream on HBO Max. Magic Mike XXL director Gregory Jacobs is producing the film with Carolin, Nick Wechsler and Peter Kiernan.

Newton is best known for movies such as Mission: Impossible 2, Crash and The Pursuit of Happyness. She is also known for playing Maeve Millay in HBO's Westworld.
