Lifetime Remake Of The Blue Lagoon Casts Young Leads

Blue Lagoon cast

And none of them are Courtney Stodden!!! Our dreams are crushed! LOL!

So Lifetime, which has been developing this contemporary reboot since 2004, has finally cast the leads for The Blue Lagoon.

Australian actors Brenton Thwaites and Indiana Evans are the third set of youngsters picked to be stranded on a dessert island together, fall in love and make whoopee. The newcomers, who starred together in Australian soap opera Home and Away, will follow in the footsteps of Brooke Shields, Christopher Atkins, Brian Krause and Milla Jovovich.

If history repeats itself, this role will be the beginning of Indiana's rise to international stardom, while Brenton will probably just fade away like the other two male actors who have played Richard in the past.

Are U looking forward to this made-for-TV remake of The Blue Lagoon?

The Blue Lagoon Is Getting Remade…For Lifetime!

blue-lagoon-remake-for-lifetime

Huh? Really?

Apparently, Lifetime has greenlighted a contemporary remake of the '80s Brooke Shields tittay-fest The Blue Lagoon, which, in case you're unfamiliar, tells the story of a boy and girl marooned on an island as children, who ultimately grow up together and start boning a lot.

According to sources, production is hoping for a February start date in Puerto Rico, and casting is already underway!

Hmm…doesn't this story seem a little, ahem, risqué for the network? Seems like Lifetime is better suited for pregnancy pacts and Jennifer Love Hewitt!

Oh well!

Maybe we'll tune in - but only if Courtney Stodden gets the female lead!

The Addams Family To Close On Broadway!

Well this is unfortunate!

Broadway's run with The Addams Family will end on December 31.

Well.. it's unfortunate for New Yorkers anyways. After the show ends its 725 performance run, they're going on the road with a national tour!

The tour will launch on September 15 in New Orleans.

Horror fan? Musical fan? Brooke Shields fan? Then you're in luck, because they're coming your way!

Brooke Shields Playing Morticia On Broadway

Brooke Cast As Morticia On Broadway

Even though the cast is losing someone extremely talented, this is fab news as that have found a great actress to fill-in!

Bebe Neuwirth is leaving The Addams Family on Broadway, only to be replaced by the one and only Brooke Shields!

Bebe's last night is June 26th, and Brooke will be picking right up where she left off on the 28th!

Shields is no newbie to Broadway either, picking up multiple roles in the past:

Roxie Hart in Chicago, Sally Bowles in Cabaret, Rizzo in Grease and Ruth in Wonderful Town.

We can't wait to see how she does! With those long legs, Morticia won't be a stretch at all!

Do U think she'll do well??
