In honor of Monday’s (fake) national holiday, “May the fourth be with you,” Magic Mike XXL dropped a new Star Wars-inspired poster. Because, according to the film’s official Twitter, “They’ve got all the force you need.”

But the poster was simply part one of the celebration. The film quickly followed with another tweet, this one containing a new teaser for the film. For those of you who have followed Magic Mike XXL closely and know its posters well, think of this teaser as a moving group one-sheet of sorts. Yes, there are abs. (There are also robes that look like something worn at a boxing match?)

According to the July issue of GQ, XXL centers around Tatum’s character attending a strippers’ convention inspired by events he attended when he was 19.
“The women would come from miles and miles around,” Tatum told GQ. “Then you lock the doors and you say all bets are off. It gets zany and crazy, and it’s a wild ride. It’s an incubator for insanity.”
Magic Mike XXL hits theaters July 1. A new trailer arrives on Wednesday.
