"Footloose" trailer released
(CBS) - The yellow Volkswagen bug, red tuxedo, and racy dance moves. They're all present in the first just-released trailer for the upcoming reboot of Kevin Bacon's classic 1980's film "Footlose."
[Watch the trailer below]
The movie, written and directed by "Hustle & Flow's" Craig Brewer, stars Hollywood newcomer Kenny Wormald as Ren MacCormack, a boogie-centric Boston boy who moves to a small, Southern town where dancing is forbidden.
Like the original, he falls for the rebellious Ariel (played by "Dancing with the Stars" pro Julianne Hough), who he later teams up with to fight the dancing rule - going straight up against Ariel's overprotective father, Rev. Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid).
Wormald tells MTV News that the remake pays "homage to the original but it's definitely a new, updated version of it."
"We all were big fans of the original," he says. "We keep the heart of the story there, but it's updated."
