'White Collar's Matt Bomer Joins Steven Soderbergh's 'Magic Mike'

By MIKE FLEMING | Wednesday August 17, 2011 @ 7:01pm EDT

Matt Bomer, star of the USA series White Collar, has joined the ab-worthy cast of hunks who'll play male strippers in Magic Mike, Steven Soderbergh's next film. So far, Soderbergh has cast Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer and Matthew McConaughey. Magic Mike is a Saturday Night Fever-style coming of age story. Tatum plays the title character, who schools a young dancer (Pettyfer) in how to hustle on and off the stage. The inspiration was Channing's own experiences as a stripper when he was 19. Nick Wechsler is producing with Tatum, Gregory Jacobs and Reid Carolin. Carolin wrote the script. Soderbergh has called the film "sexy, funny and shocking" using Saturday Night Fever as a model. Bomer will next be seen in the Andrew Niccol-directed In Time, playing the pivotal role of a wealthy man who gives the protagonist (Justin Timberlake) a shot at a longer life.
