“I’m buddies with both of them,” Tatum told PEOPLE of Reynolds and McElhenney, 47, during a recent interview regarding the spot. “And I haven’t really done any sort of dancing in a while, so I just was like, ‘Hell yeah, let’s go’… We didn’t want to go full stripper. We wanted it to be fun and keep it PG.”
