Thandiwe Newton's camp is denying reports that she left the third installment of the Magic Mike trilogy over a disagreement with Channing Tatum, the film's star and producer.

The Westworld actress, who was set to co-star with Tatum in the forthcoming stripper saga Magic Mike's Last Dance, reportedly exited the Warner Bros. film after shooting for 11 days in London.
