You’ve got to hand it to Channing Tatum. His last few movies have been pretty darned decent (we’ll exclude Jupiter Ascending), and the dancer turned actor is back later this year in the sequel to the 2012 hit Magic Mike, Magic Mike XXL.
The promotional machine has already kicked into gear, and at a recent fan screening of the film Tatum posed as a stiff studio executive before blowing his cover and dancing for his hoardes of fans in the audience.
The stunt was all in aid of Runa Foundation and along with the video on YouTube comes the chance to win tickets to the Hollywood premiere.
Channing Tatum surprises some lucky fans by going undercover at a 3D screening of Magic Mike XXL! You’ll never guess will happens next. Enter for a chance to join him at the Hollywood premiere:

But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last blow-out performance in Myrtle Beach, and with legendary headliner Magic Mike sharing the spotlight with them. On the road to their final show, with whistle stops in Jacksonville and Savannah to renew old acquaintances and make new friends, Mike and the guys learn some new moves and shake off the past in surprising ways.[/quote_box_center]
Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez and Gabriel Iglesias return, along with newcomers Elizabeth Banks, Donald Glover, Amber Heard, Andie MacDowell, Jada Pinkett Smith and Michael Strahan.
