Chace Crawford Cuts Loose From 'Footloose'

Chace Crawford is no longer involved in the remake of Footloose.

The 24-year-old actor will begin work on Gossip Girl again this summer, which is when Paramount hopes to begin production on Footloose, according to EW.

Chace became attached to the project about a year ago, replacing Zac Efron. Kenny Ortega left the project a little over six months ago and several rewrites have taken place on the script.

Julianne Hough is still set to play the love interest in the film.

This is awful. No I’m not going to see that movie.

(but on the other side it’s a good choice, I don’t like remakes. Look at Fame!)

I bet Julianne will quit soon

The film just doesn’t need to be remade. Period. With all this rotating in and out of cat and crew, you’d think someone would realize that they should leave well enough alone and just scrap the thing entirely.

he deserves to have a succesful career like Robert Pattinson. I like him even more than that stupid dude

They should keep Chace on this project!!!
I don’t want to see Footloose without him…
Zac Efron, Kenny Ortega left the project so maybe it’s better that Chace quits it too. This movie won’t be good lol.

Probably just saved his career with that choice.

maybe they saw his “acting” on Gossip Girl and decided that the franchise already has enough problems ha ha.

Why does HW always feel the need to mess with classics? When do they come out as good or better than the original?

Thumb up Thumb down 0

XD Yeah, Chace’s hotter than mr Pattinson.
They’re both good actors although..

GO CHACE
