Footloose Frontman Confirmed!!!!!
Filed under: Exclusives! > Chace Crawford
There has been a lot of speculation and rumor about who will be cast as in the remake of Footloose after Zac Efron, who was attached to star in the movie, dropped out. Well, ponder no more, at least about the leading man!
Pararmount, which is producing the movie, confirms exclusively to PerezHilton.com that it will be none other then Gossip Girl's Chace Crawford!!!
Crawford will be reprising Kevin Bacon's famous role of Ren and Kenny Ortega, the man behind all the High School Musical films, will be directing!
Good choice people! We approve!
But what of the leading lady?
Well, Kenny Ortega may be dipping back into the Disney tween pool for that.
New reports claim that Miley Cyrus is the latest little lady to be considered for the part. That puts her in the running with starlets like Hayden Panettiere, Amanda Bynes and Dancing With the Stars pro Julianne Hough.
Now that we know who's the star, who would U like to see as his love interest?

Re: Wiley0312 – U r flippin Brain damaged lol
I think Hayden Panettiere would make a good leading lady.
MILEY HAS TO BE.. NO QUESTION ABOU IT. =7
Hayden and Amanda don't act very well- and Miley makes the hair on my neck stand up…
so the other one I guess.
YAY! Chace Crawford! Booo! Miley!
Miley?…….. HELL NO!
She talks like trailer park trash and has an irritating singn' voice!
Julianne and Hayden would probably be BEST!
Julianne!! I really don't want to hear Hayden or Amanda singing…
Not miley, she looks too young for him, and is, but - definitely looks it, too. and it'd be all cheesy and gross then.
i think hayden would be a good choice she is an awsome actress and i think her and chace would be uber-cute!
julianne hough. For all you idiots saying miley cyrus you're retarded cause miley can't act or dance worth shit.
Umm… Me. Where do I audition?
Seriously.
It's right up my alley and I've been trying to get into the business for a while but I can't afford com cards and I don't have an agent. I've applied at Nova as a Dance major to see if maybe I can network or just plain work my way in and I have hope! This movie would be a dream come true for me but I know it won't happen =/ I'm realistic lol
A girl can dream…
BOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DEREK HOUGH would've been 1,000 times better than this boring kid.
Julianne Hough or Amanda Bynes, both love them and i think they will look cute next to Chace…
Team JULIANNE!!!!!!!!
This is going to be fucking terrible. It's probably going to feature a bunch of lame white kids dancing to Hip Hop. wy remake this with vapid teen stars?

i think that Miley would do great with the Ariel role…everyones saying she is too young, age doesnt matter if you can act the part. im tired of people insulting her and other celebs like they are better than them. ugh, people annoy me. but i also think that amanda would be great in Rusty's character, and hayden or julianne could play urleen.
PLEASE, ANYBODY BUT MILEY CYRUS
to save this movie (for it not to become another mediocore disney film) i think the role should go to julianne hough! i love amanda bynes but i dont think she wouldn't be that good in a drama! shes too funny!! i'd be amazed if she could pull it off! Miley Cyrus should NOT be in it at all!!! first of all: her and chace:isnt that like illegal??? and second off she is a piss poor actress as of a singer Jamie fox was so right about her!
J U L I A N N E
Hello? Homegirl can actually DANCE!
Miley i want her to play the roll but she might be 2 young but love her if miley can't play the role Julianna Hough defo
AMANDA BYNES for sure! shes old enough and looks more chase's age. the others would make it too chiche. amanda is the more mature for the part, and dancing with that stars people should stay there sorry!
He's so hot! I cannot wait!
Julianne Hough PLEASE! She's the only one I could bear watching. She's so gorgeous too.
NOT MILEY! It would ruin the entire show.
anyone but miley.
Amanda Bynes for the wolf! That'd be awesome.
JULIANNE!!!!!
~~~~AMANDA!!!!~~~~
NOT MiLEY. ii FCKNG HATE HER . SHE'S A FCKNG SLUT !
SHE THiiNKS THAT NiiCKK STiiLL LiiKES HER BUUT THE THiiNG iiS ; HE DOESNT .
HEEELLLOOO ;; LiiGHTENN UUP BABE .
Not Miley, that's just stupid.
The state of the movie industry is so sad. Remake, after remake, after remake. And the majority of them absolutely suck.
Pathetic.

Hunk.
