Amber Heard is set to star in 'Magic Mike XXL,' the sequel of the 2012 male-stripper film.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the 28-year-actress who's engaged to Johnny Depp, would appear alongside Channing Tatum, Alex Pettyfer, Matt Bomer and Joe Manganiello, who would reprise their roles.

The film, which won't see Matthew McConaughey return as strip club owner, would be helmed by Gregory Jacobs from a script co-written by Tatum and Reid Carolin.

The original film's director Steven Soderbergh would return as editor and cinematographer for the project, which would be produced by Carolin and Tatum under their Iron Horse banner alongside Jacobs and Nick Weschler.

The movie, which would follow the lives of a group of male strippers, has already begun production and is slated for a July, 2015 release.
