Revolving around the world of male strippers, Magic Mike's plot was inspired by Channing Tatum's real life experience as a striptease dancer in Tampa, Florida when he was 19 years old. The raw script was created by Tatum and then revised by Reid Carolin, who wrote the final screenplay and co-produced the movie along with Steven Soderbergh. Carolin and Soderbergh co-financed the movie as well. The film's plot is telling a story of veteran stripper "Magic Mike" (played by (Channing Tatum ) and his protégée The Kid (portrayed by Alex Pettyfer who may be familiar to you as Kyle from "Beastly"). Mike teaches The Kid who to party, seducing women and make easy money.
