“At a certain point, you have to surrender to what the cinema gods want for you,” Soderbergh said after Salma Hayek Pinault replaced Newton in April 2022.
“Not only are you not allowed to be smart, but you were not allowed to be funny in the ’90s,” Hayek said before starring in 2010’s “Grown Ups.”
Hayek Pinault nearly landed on her head while filming “Magic Mike’s Last Dance.”
“I would just sit around and watch, like, 12 men, semi-naked dancing and doing pirouettes,” Hayek said.
“We wanted to blow the dancing up in a big way,” director Steven Soderbergh said.
Salma Hayek Pinault stars as a wealthy socialite who whisks Mike (Tatum) away in the Steven Soderbergh-helmed film.
The action-comedy will see Hathaway and Hayek Pinault play rivals forced to work together.
“She came into my trailer at the start of the shoot and said, ‘Let’s just spoon a little bit,” Perry said of Hayek’s attempts to get into character as a couple.
Salma Hayek replaced Thandiwe Newton in the third and final “Magic Mike” film, directed by Steven Soderbergh.
The two stars recently collaborated on Jolie’s upcoming film “Without Blood.”
Gaga says a “sexual relationship” between her character and Hayek’s psychic could end up in a “director’s cut. Who knows.”
“I feel bad saying this, but her accent is not exactly an Italian accent.”
