On February 10, 2023, Steven Soderbergh’s new comedy “Magic Mike: The Last Dance” will premiere worldwide. As part of the promotion of the film, one of the main actors, Salma Hayek, gave an interview on the Jimmy Kimmel show. She brought the interlocutor closer to a dangerous backstage situation that took place during rehearsals for the dance scene.

Dangerous figure and uncomfortable outfit
Hayek, who plays the woman who persuades the main character to organize a stripper show, said that she almost had a serious accident during rehearsals with Channing Tatum. The film couple practiced one of the erotic dance scenes. A specific figure required the involvement of a partner who had to take care of an element of the dancer’s outfit. Despite clear instructions and many hours of practice, Hayek’s inattention may have resulted in a head injury. The choreography assumed that the actress had to be turned upside down and Tatum had to hold her pants. On the day of the potential accident, however, she was not sure whether the rather bold outfit would cover everything, and instead of worrying about safety, she thought about covering her body.
There’s one moment that didn’t make it into the movie. I was just head down and had to do something with my legs. In such a situation, you lose your orientation. Instead of doing what I was practicing, I flew down and nearly hit my head on the floor. Channing Tatum grabbed my pants, but they started to slide down. At the moment, I couldn’t remember if I was wearing underwear, so instead of putting my hand over my head, I held my pants down.
– told the actress on “Jimmy Kimmel Live”.
Channing told me to put my hands up and I was like “no no no”. “What’s wrong with you?” Channing asked me. “With me? You almost killed me!”
she recalled. In the end, she was not injured thanks to the quick reaction of the film crew. However, she admitted that the lap dance scenes were extremely physically demanding for her.
The film also challenged Tatum
Although the Dangerous Shot ultimately did not make it into production, viewers will still have the opportunity to experience many sensual dance scenes. – My God! Wait until you see it. It’s complicated, Hayek said. In the same interview, she also joked that after years of playing strippers, it was time to take a break, while the 56-year-old actor admitted that it was one of his first lap dance experiences. – You have to start somewhere, right? Tatum said. The role in the new part of “Magic Mike” was also demanding for him.

That may be the reason why I didn’t want a third film to be made. When you play it, you have to look like on the poster. It’s very difficult, even if you exercise regularly, being in this shape is not something natural.
– he honestly confessed in May 2022.
Channing Tatum’s return to the screen as Magic Mike is a whole new story. The plot focuses on a few-month romance of the main character, who falls in love with the character played by Salma Hayek. The franchise’s first two films, the first of which was released in 2012, grossed over $300 million. The Polish premiere is scheduled for the weekend before Valentine’s Day, February 10, 2023.
