Do You Gotta Cut loose, FOOTLOOSE?? Production Seeking Males 18 & Older!! Is It You??

Published at:  Jun 07, 2010 3:18:14 PM CDT


Merrick here...


The Powers That Be are inching closer and closer to filming their FOOTLOOSE remake, and they're looking for males 18 years old and up to appear in the film.

To be perfectly clear, AICN has nothing to do with this casting process at all. In this article, I'm merely passing along a document I just received from a regional studio representative. It appears here in its entirety and below. It's, except for the link outs, which I coded in for your convenience.

If you pursue this opportunity and get on board the production, let us know! Have fun, and best of luck!





Seeking males 18 or older to play high school seniors in FOOTLOOSE, shooting Summer 2010.

MUST HAVE NATURAL RHYTHM AND BE COMFORTABLE DANCING. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A TRAINED DANCER BUT A QUICK LEARNER.

    I smell a viral marketing campaign

    by knuckleface


    Now, I don't expect too many people on this site to respond, but I just wanted to say that I think this is obviously part of a marketing campaign. They're going to round up the best, the funniest and the most embarrassing videos and put them online to promote the movie. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with that, just, be honest about it.

    by jaka

    lol - Just kidding. I want to think that Footloose was a movie for the time it was created in, and that it won't transfer over to current cinema tastes. But with all these dancing/talent shows on TV I'm sure I'm completely wrong about that.

    Reverse Footloose needed

    by menacingphantom

    File this under "those kids today..." Given the prom-related trends among America's teens (grinding, "daggering", etc) isn't time for a reverse Footloose in which a sensible teen is so disgusted by the whole thing he convinces his town to ban dancing in the end?

    by vadakinx

    I'm expecting this to have a rap version of Footloose as the big dance number at the end with body popping and street dancing...because you know...it's hip...and cool...and hot...and jazz...and jive...and all the cool words us young whippersnappers use these days.

    by the new transported man

    The casting people open my e-mail & play the video file. Expecting to see some Taylor Lautner-type shit, they get me, a 32 y-o, stomach fat-having, pasty-ass whiteboy. I tear through the scene (STEVE!), & quick cut to the most ridiculous dance audition conceivable.
