Fans got a lot more than they truly asked for when 'Magic Mike' himself answered their questions.
Channing Tatum has just conducted a Reddit AMA, which helped promote awareness of his Runa Foundation fundraiser. The AMA, which means "Ask me anything," also ended up raising awareness about Tatum's wicked sense of humor and unabashed love for 'Magic Mike' costar Matt Bomer.
"What's up, reddit," the actor wrote by way of introduction. "Chan here. With the premiere of Magic Mike XXL coming up in a few weeks, I thought I'd expose myself... to your questions. For the next hour, ask away!"
Kicking off my 1st #redditAMA in 30 minutes! Got questions? See you guys at 2pm PT. Be gentle. https://t.co/lz7e6mEXEw pic.twitter.com/kTShP6fSjw

The actor even scored a donation from Chili's Grill and Bar, who apologized about the chicken crisps. The tweet read, "Sorry about the Chicken Crispers, @channingtatum! We made a donation to @runafoundation to make up for it. #redditAMA"

Runa Foundation immediately confirmed the donation.
Thanks for the donation @Chilis, sounds like it was a fun #redditAMA with @channingtatum! #plantmed https://t.co/0Jrm3Evi2Q — Runa Foundation (@runafoundation) June 17, 2015
Tatum also endorsed his upcoming sequel 'Magic Mike XXL,' which the actor has been promoting in several creative ways. The Reddit AMA offered a chance for one lucky fan to join Tatum during his film's premiere, which will also benefit the Runa Foundation.
The Runa Foundation works to preserve and support Amazonian farming communities.
The 'Step Up' actor recently made a scene during the LA Pride parade when he was spotted dancing on the 'Magic Mike XXL' float together with Bomer and Adam Rodriguez.
'Magic Mike XXL' also stars Joe Manganiello, Kevin Nash, Gabriel Iglesias, Amber Heard, Jada Pinkett Smith, Andie MacDowell, Donald Glover and Elizabeth Banks. The film is directed by Gregory Banks and was co-written by Tatum with Reid Carolin.
Watch out for 'Magic Mike XXL' when the boys crash into theaters on July 1, 2015.
