(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Joe Manganiello admits that the cast gets "pretty d**m naked" in his newest film.

Joe plays Big Dick Richie in Magic Mike, an upcoming independent drama about a strip club. The star is known for performing sexy scenes frequently in the television series True Blood.

Joe believes that the seductive scenes in Magic Mike trump what audiences saw on the hit HBO show.

"[Everyone is] pretty damn naked [in Magic Mike], and probably more naked than in True Blood even, if you can believe it," Joe told MTV News. "There are some dicey, dicey scenes in there. A lot of girls get naked too."

The film's sexiness is not unnecessary. According to Joe, the movie will appeal to a broad audience.

"It's unbelievable, and it's so funny. It feels like [classic comedy film] Animal House. It's hysterical, it's like a great guy, buddy movie but it's also got a lot of stuff for the ladies," Joe explained.

"It's got a little bit for everybody. It's hysterical, like laugh-out-loud screaming funny."

Joe co-stars alongside a handsome ensemble that includes Channing Tatum and Matthew McConaughey.

Joe appreciates the camaraderie that he and his cast members share on set.

"Well, you know, it's all kind of the sexy guys from their respective corners of the universe, but none of them take themselves seriously at all. So, it felt like spring break," Joe recalled. "We're just like a bunch of bros just hanging out, you know, and just happened to male strip."

Magic Mike will be released in cinemas in 2012. (C) Cover Media
