Lionsgate is gearing up for a remake of the 1987 classic Dirty Dancing and has set Julia Dahl (Uptown Girls) to work on the script, according to Production Weekly.
The original starred Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey as a young woman in the summer where she meets Johnny Castle (Swayze) who teaches dance at a family Summer Camp and in his off hours Dirty Dances with the other dancers. She learns a routine so that one of the women can recover from an abortion and becomes Johnny’s lover [Ed. - That is dark as hell for a movie my 8-year-old classmates were into].

How are they possibly going to update this?  Is Baby going to win a booty shake (NSFW) competition?  Is Johnny going to throw dem poak chops?  Instead of an abortion, is Johnny’s girlfriend going to be raising money to have 12 embryos implanted so she can get a reality show contract? Oh well, if Julia Dahl messes this up, there’s always barber college.
