When hot men strip

Matthew McConaughey will be starring along with Channing Tatum and Alex Pettyfer in Steven Soderbergh's Magic Mike. The film follows Tatum's character as he helps newbie dancer Pettyfer learn how to work it on stage.

McConaughey will play Dallas, owner of the strip club Xquisite, where the boys work. Apparently much of the movie was inspired by Tatum's actual experience when he worked as an erotic dancer in his younger days.

Here's hoping its better than Show Girls ...
