Here's a bit of homoerotic masturbatory news. Deadline is reporting that the very sexy Alex Pettyfer, who starred in one of the worst action movies of 2011 I Am Number Four is set to play a younger version of Channing Tatum while Tatum will play Pettyfer's mentor. Keep in mind Tatum is about ten years older than Pettyfer.


Read Deadline's report below:

Not only did Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh just choose 21-year-old newcomer Alex Pettyfer for this juicy role in Magic Mike. But also, as Deadline has previously reported, the film has such an interesting storyline because the plot revolves around Channing Tatum's real-life stripper sojourn. Now Pettyfer will play a young Tatum baring it all while Channing plays his older mentor.

Now if this turns out to be the sluttiest, campiest film since Showgirls, count me in as a front row viewer. Check out this sexy shoot of Alex in less clothing (just how we like him) in a Mario Testino shoot for V Man  below...
