"Magic Mike XXL" star Channing Tatum talked to Access Hollywood about shooting the second movie that he feels is somewhat better than the first.

"The second movie is way more what I think people thought the first movie was going to be," he said. "We just really got to take the gloves off on this one and just go a little crazy."

The hunk talked about how much chemistry all of the guys have on set.

"We were really blessed to just all really like each other," he said. "I know everybody says that on a big cast movie. Everyone's like, 'Oh, yeah! We're all the best of friends!' but we really do just act up and be stupid the whole time."

"Magic Mike XXL" picks up with a reunion with the original gang. "Three years after Mike (Tatum) bowed out of the stripper life at the top of his game, he and the remaining Kings of Tampa hit the road to Myrtle Beach to put on one last blow-out performance," the movie description reads on IMDb.

Returning cast members Matt Bomer (Ken), Adam Rodriguez (Tito) and Joe Manganiello (Richie) join Mike in the reunion while new members Stephen "tWitch" Boss and Donald Glove are introduced.

Access Hollywood asked Tatum what he thought about his 2-year-old daughter Everly eventually seeing the movie.

"I can't stop her from seeing it. By the time she gets old enough, it'll just be projected in holograms everywhere," he joked. "I have a college fund, and I have a therapy fund. It'll be fine."

Meanwhile, singer Michael Bublé revealed to E! News that he wishes he was a part of the new "Magic Mike" movie.

"There's stuff, too, that even at this position that they don't ask you to do, and it hurts. Like, 'Magic Mike 2.' They did not ask me," the singer said. "I waited at home and I was like, 'Please I will work on my abs, or whatever. Can you paint them on?' Nothing. Not a call."

"Magic Mike XXL" hits theaters July 1.
