'Mike' is latest movie with magic abs
On Friday, Magic Mike’s cast will find a place in the Hall of Ab-focused Fame, among stars willing to sweat it out (repeatedly) for the silver screen. So who reigns in Hollywood’s ripped roost? USA TODAY’s Andrea Mandell takes a look at the famous cores that cut straight to the top.
Channing Tatum loosely based this stripper tale on his own Hollywood start, but it was the assembling of this smoking-hot cast for the Steven Soderbergh-directed film that was true marketing genius.
With Tatum, fifth from left, Adam Rodriguez, left, Joe Manganiello, Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey, Kevin Nash and Matt Bomer crowding the silver screen, "I don't think audiences really know what they're in for,” Bomer told USA TODAY. “It's kind of a Saturday Night Fever-Boogie Nights kind of feel.”
