Dirty Dancing Remake Goes to Monte Carlo Scribe Maria Maggenti

dirtydancing-casting-120.jpgMaria Maggenti, who wrote the Selena Gomez luxury binge fantasia Monte Carlo, is your Dirty Dancing remake scribe! Since Monte Carlo, Maggenti has written an adaptation of Before I Fall and is wrapping up work on the multi-century romance My Name Is Memory. Hopefully this means we're in for a decadent, Disney-pop trip to the Catskills and a scene about Penny's abortion to set Gomez's empowerment anthem "Who Says?" [Deadline]

    A remake of "Dirty Dancing" wouldn't be an interesting proposition even if Aaron Sorkin was writing it.

    I seriously hope that they don't try and make Dirty Dancing into a Disney movie or even a step up movie. I dont get why they feel the need to remake a perfectly good movie. But if it has to be done please no high school musical actors Channing tatum would be a perfect Johnny.
