Filed under: Film Flickers

Kids of the 80's, you'll be stoked to hear this news!

The Weinstein Co. is going to turn Fraggle Rock into a live-action musical movie!

Super fun!

A new generation will get to dance their cares away and worry another day.

According to Variety, just like the series, the film will be populated by a mix of human characters and Fraggle Rock puppets. The pic will take the core characters Gogo, Wembley, Mokey, Boober and Red outside of their home in Fraggle Rock, where they interact with humans, which they think are aliens.

Stay tuned for the release date and more deets!

Exciting news!
