“Dancing with the Stars” professional dancer Julianne Hough has screen tested for the lead role in Paramount Pictures “Footloose” remake says Entertainment Weekly.
Producer Neil Meron says Hough’s success as a country singer means she has a good chance to nab the role which is expanded from the original – “It’s a much more singing-intensive movie for the female lead.”
Kenny Ortega is directing the film and Chace Crawford is set to star in the lead role.
