1st Trailer For ‘Back On The Strip’ Movie Starring Wesley Snipes & Tiffany Haddish

“Back On The Strip – Official Movie Trailer #1 [HD]”

Synopsis: “Back On The Strip” features Merlin – who, since childhood, has dreamed of becoming a great Las Vegas magician.

The only greater love he had was for his best friend and magic assistant, Robin.

As long as he had magic and Robin, there was no trick he could not do.

Ten years later, Merlin’s big dreams have come to a halt.

Instead of performing magic tricks in a big arena, he is making balloon animals for bratty five-year-olds as a party clown.

Unsatisfied with life, Merlin decides to go after the only thing he has ever truly loved – Robin.

To Merlin’s dismay, he quickly learns Robin is engaged to social media star Blaze.

Although Blaze is a clear unfit match for Robin, Merlin is finally pushed to go to Vegas to pursue magic by his unfiltered, but loving mother, Verna.

Upon his arrival, Merlin discovers magic work is hard to come by.

When Rita, hotel and Cookie Club owner, gives Merlin the opportunity to perform, his tricks go all but smoothly.

In his last trick, he sets his pants on fire and begins jumping around in his underwear to put out the flames.

To his surprise, this pleases the female crowd who can’t seem to get enough of his bouncing package.

This intrigues nearby one-legged drunk, Luther, aka Mr. Big.

The once well-endowed leader of the famous Black male stripper crew, The Chocolate Chips, is now a gimpy alcoholic looking to reclaim former glory.

With the help of Merlin, he realizes he might have found the missing piece to revive the Chips.

Together, they go on a quest to reunite the troupe.

As suspected, former Chips: Des ‘Da Body’, Tyriq ‘Da Face’, Amos ‘Slim Sexy’ and Xander ‘Dr. X’ have all moved on with their lives.

Nonetheless, the men remain nostalgic for the past, while being unfulfilled in the present.

Once the men finally agree to reassemble, old conflicts arise as they attempt to don the thongs again.

However, soon they regain their rhythm and teach Merlin what it means to be a Chip and fight for true love.
