First Kenny Ortega tried to destroy Footloose with a remake and failed. Now he trying to dance his way back into doing another remake and this time the victim is Dirty Dancing. According to Variety he choreographed the original version, so I guess that should give me a sigh of relief that he will do the remake justice. But all I could think is that the High School Musical director will cast Ashley Tisdale and Channing Tatum as the leads.
Seriously if Ortega was loyal to the original, he wouldn’t make the remake. There is no need for it, can’t he just work on High School Musical 5 instead? Please Hollywood put this remake in the corner and leave it there.
