Justin Timberlake (THE SOCIAL NETWORK, FRIENDS WITH BENEFITS) has been named the favourite to lift a Baby in the remake of 80s classic DIRTY DANCING. You may have read our report that Jennifer Grey, the original Baby, has given her support to HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL director Kenny Ortega rebooting the movie. Now, according to MSN, bookmakers have given odds on who will fill those dancing shoes. JT tops the list to assume the iconic Patrick Swayze role at 3/1, while THOR himself, Chris Hemsworth, is a close second at 6/1.
With those potential Johnny Castles in place, who will be the new watermelon carrier? Joint favourites are Eric’s daughter, Emma Roberts (WILD CHILD, SCREAM 4) and GLEE’S Lea Michele. It seems that nobody has mentioned Emma Watson as a potential dirty dancer, but we live in hope.
DIRTY DANCING is scheduled for release in 2013.
John is a gentleman, a scholar, he’s an acrobat. He is one half of the comedy duo Good Ol’ JR, and considers himself a comedy writer/performer. This view has been questioned by others. He graduated with First Class Honours in Media Arts/Film & TV, a fact he will remain smug about long after everyone has stopped caring. He enjoys movies, theatre, live comedy and writing with the JR member and hetero life partner Ryan. Some of their sketches can be seen on YouTube and YOU can take their total hits to way over 17!
