LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: As Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum's divorce proceedings progress, new details have surfaced regarding the upcoming trial.
This includes Jenna's intention to summon witnesses such as her ex-husband, Channing, and 'Magic Mike' director Steven Soderberg.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, Jenna is ready to testify for eight hours regarding various aspects of their marriage, including business and financial matters.
Similarly, Channing will also be questioned on similar topics for the same duration.

In addition, Jenna intends to enlist the expertise of both Channing's forensic accountant and her own, who were hired for the divorce proceedings.
One of the listed witnesses is Channing's business manager, Eric Fulton, who will offer insights into Channing's business and financial involvements, including those related to 'Magic Mike' and other enterprises.
Significantly, Jenna has included 'Magic Mike' director Steven Soderberg as a witness, who is anticipated to testify for a duration of 2 hours. Another pivotal individual slated to be called is Channing's producing partner, Reid Carolin.
The dispute over the profits from the 'Magic Mike' franchise appears to be a significant sticking point in the divorce proceedings. Jenna's legal team plans to introduce various evidence, including tax returns for 'Magic Mike' entities, financial statements, bank statements, and other business records.
Jenna and Channing, who tied the knot in 2009, filed for divorce in 2018. While they reached a joint custody agreement over their daughter Everly, they have struggled to settle their assets, particularly those related to 'Magic Mike.'
The franchise, which Channing launched during their marriage, has expanded beyond films to include a reality show and successful live performances.
Jenna reportedly played a significant role in the creation of 'Magic Mike,' contributing to finding choreographers and assisting with the live show production.
Jenna's recent filings indicate that negotiations have been unsuccessful, prompting the decision to proceed to trial.
