A remake of Footloose is coming our way with Zac Efron

All together now “but you gotta cut loose…Footloose…kick off your Sunday shoes…please..Louise….” I’m stopping now.

Paramount is plotting a musical remake of the 1984 film “Footloose” and will develop it for “High School Musical” star Zac Efron and director Kenny Ortega. Dylan Sellers will produce.

Ortega is in negotiations to helm and choreograph, and Efron is in talks to play Ren McCormack, the rebellious newcomer (originally played by Kevin Bacon) in a town where dancing has been banned.

Oh and you know we have to watch some clipparoos, bbs.

And dammit – let’s hear it for the boy.
