The first trailer was released a bit back and it was much, much better. To tell you the truth, I am not all that averse to a remake of Footloose. The first one was a bit of weird movie and really not that great. Flashdance was much better and really led the 80′s dance films that we are all nostalgic for.
This movie might do well driven by the hordes of teens that made Hairspray a hit. I mean if The Smurfs can do well?
But here we are. In the midst of the remake renassiance that studios have subjected us to, I bring you the second Footloose Trailer.
Here is the official synopsis:
Writer/Director Craig Brewer (“Hustle & Flow,” “Black Snake Moan”) delivers a new take of the beloved 1984 classic film, “Footloose.” Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont’s local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister’s troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.
