Magic Mike XXL is set to be one of the movies not to be missed this summer and the European premiere is taking place in London tonight - and you can enjoy the premiere from the comfort of your own living room.

Magic Mike XXL comes three years after the success of the first film - which was one of the biggest sleeper hits of the year - and Channing Tatum is back in the title role.

And Tatum will be on the red carpet at Vue West End in London tonight alongside co-stars Joe Manganiello, Matt Bomer, Kevin Nash, Adam Rodriguez, Jada Pinkett Smith and Amber Heard, and director Gregory Jacobs.

Jacobs - who served as producer on the first film - takes over the director's chair from Steven Soderbergh this time around. Magic Mike XXL is the third feature of Jacobs' career, coming after Criminal and Wind Chill, and is set to be the film that really does put him on the map as a moviemaker.

The movie sees plenty of familiar faces on the cast list as Tatum, Manganiello, Bomer, Nash, and Rodriguez are back as Mike, Big Dick Richie, Ken, Tarzan, and Tito.

Pinkett Smith is one of the big new additions to the cast list and is set to take on the role of Rome in the film. Elizabeth Banks, Amber Heard, and Twitch are some of the other great new additions.

Picking up the story three years after Mike bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, Magic Mike XXL finds the remaining Kings of Tampa likewise ready to throw in the towel. But they want to do it their way: burning down the house in one last blow-out performance in Myrtle Beach, and with legendary headliner Magic Mike sharing the spotlight with them.

On the road to their final show, with whistle stops in Jacksonville and Savannah to renew old acquaintances and make new friends, Mike and the guys learn some new moves and shake off the past in surprising ways.

Magic Mike XXL is released 3rd July.
