Channing Tatum, 35, wrapped the last scene of Magic Mike XXL yesterday but he has no time to take a break – Tatum has four movies lined up back to back and he just got cast in Quentin Tarantino’s Hateful Eight.” He’s the Guy Most Likely to become the next big box-office star who can open a movie big time. Hollywood’s leading men like Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp are getting older (both in their 50’s) and Hollywood needs a hot young guy with box-office power. Judging by the way Johnny Depp’s fiancée Amber Heard is gazing at Channing in this pic from the set of Magic Mike XXL, Tatum has the goods. And he’s a super nice guy to boot.

Vanity Fair photographed Elvis’s granddaughter Riley Keough, 23, and she looks quite striking.

You’ll see her soon in “Magic Mike.” Nice to hear that Riley isn’t turned off when people bring up her grandfather’s name – she says they often share stories about Elvis shows they went to and remember fondly. She finds it sweet…

MAGIC MIKE MIGHT ACTUALLY BE A DECENT MOVIE

This movie looks like fun. And the fact that it’s directed by the perfectly respectable Steven Soderbergh gives it even more potential. It’s not exactly painful to imagine Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matthew McConaughey and Joe Manganiello as male strippers. We always got a kick out of the original Chippendales dancers (from a safe distance) so Magic Mike might be better than it sounds.

RILEY KEOUGH : GRANDPA ELVIS WOULD BE PROUD

Elvis’s granddaughter Riley Keough is getting serious about her acting career – she’s in the middle of filming her fourth movie. Riley plays the colorful girlfriend of male stripper Alex Pettyfer in “Magic Mike.” The story is loosely based on Channing Tatum’s early career as a young male stripper and Channing is also starring in the film. Riley started out as a teen model but now she considers herself an actress. Hair color notwithstanding, she IS a beauty.
