Zac Efron looks like he is securing his place as the next big thing out of young Hollywood.
Simon Cowell has been looking to produce a remake of ‘Saturday Night Fever,’ which originally starred John Travolta, and in Zac, he thinks he’s found just the man to take the lead.
“Simon has been looking into buying the rights for years and opened
discussions with Robert [original film producer] about the remake. The charm offensive has been
in full swing and they made a breakthrough over the last couple of
weeks. Robert was keen to get some assurances the original wouldn’t be
completely butchered before he agreed to the deal.”
What do you think? Would this help take Zac’s career to the next level?
I think it is absolutely HORRIBLE Hollywood keeps doing re-makes. The originals are what they are………………classics. Watch them the way they were originally made! And though younger people wouldn’t be able to recognize Travolta’s former hotness looking at him today……….Zac is NO TRAVOLTA!
Yeah… leave the original alone!
This report is completely false. Someone has a wild imagination and is trying to start trouble.
HE WOULD HAVE BEEN SOOO MUCH BETTER IN FOOTLOOSE…
Since when are Member’s Only jackets back in style?
Noooooooooo…………Saturday Night Fever is such a classic, and cheesy Zac Efron is NO Tony Manero.
hahaha, i was thinking, who would do Fran Drescher’s role?? LOL HAHAHA I LOVE HER!
No one wore a members onlly jacket in Saturday night fever. They didn’t become popular till a few year later. PLEEEASE don’t let this be true!
Why wont they leave the classics alone?Seriously,Saturday night fever is about more than just dancing and disco.Its an urban tragedy about life for young people trying to find there place in the world.The movie has atoned that is iconic and special and it doesnt need to be remade for todays selfish and utterly ignorant generation who only care about looks and fame.
If this is indeed true,Simon Cowell is only doing it for money and is Zac Efron is a pain in the ass
OMG why would they want to remake such a classic film?
Someone shoot me now this will be a NIGHTMARE
Zac Efron is NO Tony Manero, get your own ideas COWELL
Zac, honey, time for haircut.
Other than that he’s a lovely boy
please,zac is 2 bubblegum and simmon cow is a faggot like american idiot’s u could not touch snf go screw something up in your own country zac is to girly 2 understand tony………………
please make it happen
a complete & utter travesty.
i thought Zac gave up the role in Footloose because he didn;t want to be typecast in musicals. So why do SNF?
My thoughts exactly.
I completely agree! He would’ve actually been good in Footloose (which I don’t want to see remade, frankly, but Efron would’ve been the better choice). Bah. Why don’t they ask us before they make these decisions?
They need to stop with the remakes already!
this breaks my heart!
Nooooo! They’d better not make it all bubblegum and kid-friendly.
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. SNF is a classic. can’t simon cowell come up with something NEW!!!!!!!
NONONONONONONONONONONONONONO! Stop with all the remakes already! And no, I don’t want a Monsters Inc 2!
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnoooooooooooo don’t do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
zac is just to clean for this. no snf material at all!
if they were to do this they should look for a comparable travolta of this time. i imagine a shia could be right… (however, not a fan of him)
