raspathens Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 If it does make it on the film, it's chaa-ching time for EC! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Carmen Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Chace Crawford (Gossip Girl) has landed the lead role as Ren McCormick. Casting for the female lead is underway. Rumors abound, including one about Julianne Hough from "Dancing With the Stars." She apparently had a "beautiful" screen test, according to one of the producers.At this point, it appears they are planning to use the big hits from the first film "Footloose", "Let's Hear It For The Boy" "Almost Paradise" and "Holding Out For A Hero", as well as a bunch of "new" music. My best guess is the "new" music will end up on the Soundtrack Album.I spoke to Dean a while back about this and he told me they hadn't even contacted him about the project. I mean, why would they? He only wrote the original screenplay and ALL THE LYRICS. The whole thing was HIS IDEA! Why would they want to talk to HIM?Ahhh, Hollywood. You gotta love these people. They're so.... um...so........oh, whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love doing that to her. She falls apart just looking at him. Gosh darn, I love watching her do that. It's so sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ira Posted June 4, 2009 Author Share Posted June 4, 2009 Yup...It's nice to write some tunes that become part of the fabric of pop culture...and for the artist to periodically be rewarded when these gems are revisited and re-recorded. "Mazel Tov"...Congratulations to Eric for being remembered and renumerated every coupla years on his great work ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darlene Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 It's great that "AP" will be in the film. It's outrageous, though, that no one ever even contacted Dean. But, I'm sure, also thoroughly expected. I guess idiots abound everywhere. --D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ira Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Hey Darlene...I guess I've realized from reading Eric's posts about the music business...I sadly realize....that in terms of bein' screwed..."That's Rock And Roll". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Hey, I'm not surprised...Nobody contacted me either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ira Posted June 10, 2009 Author Share Posted June 10, 2009 Me too Tony...I kinda think of you as the Clive Davis of SoCal ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Cartmill Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I know, Ira. There was a time I would "bed" a minimum of 3 young starlets every time a movie project was announced in this town...Some of them even had real boobies...I miss those days.

ira Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 I miss those days too...But the bliss of family life far exceeds those times...And if you believe that...I have some Bernie Madoff ventures I'd be happy to discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
