Salma Hayek spoke about some of the behind-the-scenes moments from the upcoming film “Magic Mike: Last Dance,” including her steamy lap dance with actor Channing Tatum which the 56-year-old actress described as a “very physically challenging” scene.
In the film’s official trailer released last Nov. 16, Hayek, who plays the character of a wealthy socialite, gets treated to a private show by Tatum’s Mike after he confessed that bartending is not really what he does. Hayek then lures Tatum into coming into London with her, with an “agenda all her own.”
Hayek opened up about her experience filming that specific scene through an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight on Friday, Dec. 16. Hayek was joined by Spanish actor-singer Antonio Banderas during the said interview, which was for the promotion of their upcoming animated film, “Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.”
“It’s very physically challenging,” Hayek said while mimicking some of the moves from the lap dance. “My goodness. You just wait to see. It’s just complicated.”
Hayek then talked about her character and narrated how her typical day in the filming set went.
“I play a strong woman,” Hayek said. “I would just sit around and watch, like, 12 men, semi-naked dancing and doing pirouettes. And I got to boss them around.”
“Magic Mike: Last Dance,” directed by Steven Soderbergh and written by Reid Carolin, is set to premiere in theaters on Feb. 10, 2023. EDV
