Channing Tatum's stripping movie "Magic Mike" made waves when it hit theaters in 2012. The movie which was particularly a hit among the ladies is set to return with a sequel- "Magic Mike 2."

During his Comic Con stint, Channing dished a few details about the upcoming movie, which he is also co-writing.

Channing told ET Online that the sequel will be a "very different movie."

"I don't know if I've ever seen a sequel that is going to be this different from the first movie-in a good way," he said.

"Magic Mike 2" will reportedly have a lighter feel than the first one. As ET Online reports, the movie will "ditch the overly dark vibes from the original, and will instead feature a lot more hijinks, hilarious moments, and plenty of laughs."

Aside from front act Channing Tatum stripping in the next sequel, Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello have also confirmed their stripper return for "Magic Mike 2."

However, there's still no news about Matthew McConaughey and Alex Pettyfer. It has been rumored that McConaughey might not return given the plot of the sequel- on the road for a stripper convention.

Pettyfer on the other hand, might not get to return because of the conflict he has with co-star Channing Tatum.

"Alex is dying to reprise his role, but Channing is on the fence," a source told OK! Magazine. "It's going to take a lot of sucking up for Alex to get his part back."

The source also added that Tatum found his 24-year-old co-star to be too cocky and difficult to work with.

"Those around them tried to mend their relationship, but Channing doesn't want anything to do with Alex," a source said at the time. "Channing said he didn't want to do [the shoot] if Alex was there. Alex is known in Hollywood for being rude and difficult."

"Magic Mike 2" is slated for a July 3, 2015 release.
