"We are bringing this incredible family on the road," Maks, who married Murgatroyd in 2017, said. "We're excited to announce that we're going on tour this summer, the four of us this time."

The Motion Pictures tour is inspired by classic films and other movies.

"This time, we're telling stories through films," Val, who married Johnson in April 2019, said. "It's a narrative that's original but is gonna use the backdrop of classic movies that we all love and grew up on. Not necessarily just dance films, but films that never had dance. Imagine if The Godfather had a dance scene, and putting that on stage."

The Motion Pictures tour begins June 11 in Greensboro, N.C., and ends Aug. 16 in Bethlehem, Pa. Tickets go on sale to the general public Friday.
