Dirty Dancing Is Getting A Remake — Starring Chanel No. 5 Abigail Breslin!

Nobody puts Chanel No. 5 in the corner!

Fresh off of the success of NBC's The Wiz Live! – and with Grease Live! airing in January on FOX — it looks like ABC wants in on the Primetime musical craze.

That's because it was announced on Tuesday that Abigail Breslin has been cast as Jennifer Grey's lead character in a 2016 remake of Dirty Dancing!

While Disney's adaptation won't be live like Peter Pan Live!, The Sound of Music Live!, and the others, it will still be interesting to see who the House of Mouse casts in Patrick Swayze's part alongside the Oscar-nominated actress…

We have to say, we're surprised by this casting. Abigail seems like an odd choice to star in her very own musical, especially after her — let's say questionable — performance in Scream Queens!

Luckily, Adam Anders and Peer Åström from Glee will be writing the music, so at least that aspect of the 3-hour show will be tight.

Make sure to catch Abigail Breslin & Co. when Dirty Dancing not-Live airs in 2016 on ABC!

Ronda Rousey Is Taking Over Patrick Swayze's Role In A Road House Remake — Will We Get To See THESE Female Reboots Next??

9/09/2015 1:33 PM ET | Filed under: Film Flickers • Patrick Swayze • MMA • Ronda Rousey • Girl Power

Ronda Rousey is certainly expanding her acting resume!

It's been reported that the UFC champion will star in a reimagining of the 80s action film Road House!

MGM is currently developing the remake, in which Rousey will use her mixed martial arts skills to take over Patrick Swayze's famous role!

We can't think of anyone better to give a fresh (and totally badass) take on this classic action flick!

For more movies we think would be great to reboot with a female led cast…

Bobby Brown & Wife's Baby Girl's Name Revealed

7/16/2015 9:38 AM ET | Filed under: Baby Blabber • Music Minute • Bobby Brown • Megan Fox • Sad Sad • Patrick Swayze • Celeb Kidz • Bobbi Kristina

bobby brown daughter name revealed

Happy news surrounded by a sad situation.

On Wednesday, the name of Bobby Brown and wife Alicia Etheredge's newborn was revealed.

The duo welcomed their daughter into the world last week while the Every Little Step singer's daughter Bobbi Kristina remained in hospice care.

The happy couple named their baby girl Bodhi Jameson Rein Brown. LOVES it!

Though this is Whitney Houston's ex's sixth child, it's only his second child with his second wife. The couple also have a 5-year-old son named Cassius.

It's said that Bodhi is a Buddhist concept of enlightenment — which is a state of nirvana. The legend gave his daughter the calm name in the midst of what we can only imagine is a very trying time for the family.

In fact, little Bodhi isn't the only celeb kid that has the Buddhist moniker.

The Full Point Break Remake Trailer, Is Like, SO Extreme! Do The Dew And Watch HERE!

5/27/2015 11:30 AM ET | Filed under: Film Flickers • Patrick Swayze • Keanu Reeves

The full Point Break remake trailer is here, and if you're expecting to be underwhelmed, try shotgunning a Mountain Dew and think again!

Oh, you're still unimpressed? Yeah, we hear you.

There are some changes to the original story. Instead of surfing bank robbers, the criminal gang are anarchist extreme athletes trying to destabilize the world's economy.

Um, there's more BASE jumping. That's new. And — unfortunately — no one fires their gun up in the air and goes aaargh! But that would require emotional resonance we just aren't seeing in this trailer.

Sadly, all the X-treme awesomeness in the world can't replace the charisma of Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze.

Are we being unfair? What do YOU think??

Will YOU see the Point Break remake?
