Where is Will? Jada Pinkett Smith will soon be surrounded by a plethora of half naked men. The 43-year-old actress who just made a splash with the premiere of her new small screen series, “Gotham,” has signed on to join the cast of Magic Mike XXL
Although we’re unsure what Smith’s role will be, she revealed recently on “The Queen Latifah Show,” that she won’t be dancing in drag.
“”No, not one of those men,” she told Queen Latifah. “I can’t really reveal it yet, but I’m very excited about it. It’s been a lot of fun.”
And when it comes to being surrounded by beautiful nude men, Smith says she feels right at home because, well, she’s got one of the sexiest men in the world, Will Smith at home.
“You’ve got to know I’m used to being around beefcake like that because you know who I live with,” she said.
“I’m used to that kind of beefcake-ness in my environment,” she added. “I can handle it. They know. I don’t have to say anything!”
With Jada Pinkett Smith involved, we’re sure whatever the role, she’ll bring a little extra something to the cast. Magic Mike XXL is set to hit theaters July 15, 2015. Will you be buying tickets? – ruthie hawkins/@ruubabie
