The European premiere of Magic Mike XXL took place in London's Leicester Square on Tuesday night, and presenter Laura Whitmore was on the red carpet to meet the stars. 


Channing Tatum was joined by co-stars Joe Manganiello, Matt Bomer, Adam Rodriguez, Jada Pinkett Smith and Amber Heard for the screening.

Asked by Whitmore about the most difficult part of playing a stripper, Bomer replied: "I think honestly just getting over your inhibitions, probably the same thing that was difficult for everyone in this cast. It's not something I had ever really thought of until I read the script the first time and I just thought, 'This is incredibly terrifying'. And it still is! 

"Thankfully, I have these guys to lean on – it's a great ensemble and it makes it a little bit easier."

Magic Mike XXL opens in cinemas on Friday July 3.
