The actors will join writer and star Channing Tatum, who is set to reprise his role as Mike, in the stripper film.

Entertainment Weekly reports the movie studio also released a synopsis of what fans can expect from the sequel to the 2012 film.

“Picking up the story three years after Mike bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, the film finds the remaining Kings of Tampa likewise ready to throw in the towel. But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last blowout performance in Myrtle Beach, and with legendary headliner Magic Mike sharing the spotlight with them,” the statement read.

“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,” the statement concludes.

The cast for Magic Mike XXL also includes Michael Strahan, Matt Bomer, Joe Manganiello, Jada Pinkett Smith, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez, Gabriel Iglesias, Amber Heard and Andie MacDowell.

Earlier this month, Magic Mike XXL director Gregory Jacobs announced that Matthew McConaughey won’t be reprising his role as Dallas in the sequel.

Magic Mike XXL will strut into theaters July 1, 2015.
