WATCH EXTENDED PREVIEW

SYNOPSIS Back on the Strip, tough-as-nails Verna (Tiffany Haddish) sends her broken-hearted son Merlin (Spence Moore II) to Vegas, determined to help him make his dreams come true as a professional magician. But a chance meeting at a run-down hotel with Mr. Big (Wesley Snipes) - the frontman of the once notorious Black male stripper crew known as “The Chocolate Chips” (J.B. Smoove, Faizon Love, Bill Bellamy, and Gary Owen) - suddenly has Merlin thrust into a different kind of spotlight. In a race against time to get his girl back and help the out-of-shape and out-of-sync “Chips” rediscover their groove, Merlin must rely on his biggest piece of magic yet… the one he was born with.
