  • i just saw the movie today.....THE OTHER GUY IS WAY BETTER JUST BY WATCHING THE FILM!!!

  • I love Zac :) who cares if he dropped out, its his freakin choice. lol I think Kenny Wormald played the part perfectly and he more fit the part too (:

  • I really wanted him for footloose ! :( he is still amazing.

  • I LOVE ZACH EFRON HES A GOOD ACTOR NOT IN HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL BUT IN PG-13 MOVIES AND PG JUST NOT BABY SHOWS:) LIKE HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL i liked the movie but not now

  • im glad he said no

  • to me Zac Efron looks like a Ren. im not saying he looks like Kevin Bacon because he doesnt. i just think he would make a good updated Ren as far as looks go.

  • i think he doesnt like singing... hes much better in dramatic roles...

  • just saw the trailer. i just kept imagining zac as the other guy. i think he should have done it.

  • You know if Zac Efron drops out of a movie, it's going to be bad.

  • @MrAeroHD He didn't drop out because he thought it was going to bad. He didn't want to be typecasted.

  • i just saw the trailer...good choice efron

  • luckely he quit. Kevin Bacon is the one and only Ren McCormack! (l)

  • zac efron is NOTHING compared to kevin bacon!

  • no one can replace kevin bacon but try to enjoy the movie

  • Thanks Zac!

  • Kevin Bacon is a very good actor now but when he did Footloose he sucked ass! Ren isn't that hard of a part to play to be perfectly honest, he is a typical lead character and i feel Zac could have played it very easily. I think this was the best choice for his career cause he wants to play more challenging and deeper roles

  • Thanks God!!!! Kevin Bacon is soooooooooooooooooo better than this boy

  • I'm glad Zac is not doing footloose. He a good actor I guess but the way I look at it he has to much of a baby face to pull off the roll. The way I look at it the roll he was sopuses to have in my apeon is a that of a rebal and a bad boy and Zac does not look like a rebal or a bad boy to me. More like the roll he played in High School Musical.

  • please....no, no, no.

  • a hink it wis a gid choice cause fa wit av heard he widny be able ta be as gid as the guy befor

  • zac is good but the role that he would be required to play in for footloose is just not in his talent range i think

  • its 2010 where 'DA MOVIE!

  • kevin bacon is the best!!! a genius!! nobody can compare with him

  • I am not a fan of this actor but he was a good dancer in his HighSchool Musical movie

    so i would have enjoyed him in that movie.

  • what the hell is this 80's remake clic everyone is on these days? leave the classics along and come up with your own ideas!!!

  • Zac Efron IS the musical man. He can't really act and is generally only suited for young-teen movies!

  • Just another example of how Hollywood is completely out of ideas and decides ONCE AGAIN to completely destroy yet another 80's classic. Just throw it on the pile with the others.

  • I am hoping for a couple things in 2011 - end of war in Iraq and Afghanistan, Disney to stop making classic remakes, the burning of all rap music and banning it in the USA, the banning of soccer in this country and lastly, Zac Efron to come out of the closet as a woman.

  • YEEEEEES!!

  • Comment removed

  • The movie from the 80s was a bunch of bullshit. before you all yell at me and everything, everyone here needs to see the FULL footloose musical, and then they can see why i say kevin bacon sucked as ren..

  • He should have taken the role. i think he would have been amazing, and made the movie really good! i cant picture anyone else that would be good for the role

  • Why don't the producers quit the whole project??? That'd be a better idea.

    Show some creativity, kids!

  • im just glad i don't have ti see his ugly face in thus amazing movie

  • i think he did us all a favor by quiting. i really didn't wanna see it with him in it. he's not cool enough to play that epic of a part. i actually have a little respect for him now.

  • the 84 footloose will always be the best, but in my opinion, zac wouldve been the perfect part for it, but then chace crawford was gonna do the ren part, now the final ren is kenny wormald....and its scheduled to be released on april 1st, 11

    cant fricken wait lol

  • they should not remake it there only one footloose!!! and thats the 1984 verson!

  • i dint know there was singing in footloose

  • I didn't think the man that did Footloose was any good! Plus there was no singing and dancing! =(

  • There is only one Footloose (1984)

  • i think he would play it very well. its bittersweet for me. i understand why. but he would've been good

  • i only liked him in hairspray ant only that

  • I think Zac should do it, he does so well with musicals.

  • YES! this day has just got even more BETTER!

    yyayy! i think it was right for him 2 quit

    god job zac

  • Zack What are you doing? You are so good at what you do. I was looking forward to seeing you remake footloose.

    All in all Zack it is so important to follow your heart. If you could do movies that are not scarry that would be great.

  • HES SOOOO HAWT!!! dude, have u seen the new recent pics of him??? his new haircut makes him look like brad pitt, no joke!! :D

  • zac is a great performer

  • THANK GOD IN HEAVEN!!!

  • is this the year of remakes? remakes of nightmare on elm street, remakes of 21 jump street, remakes of footloose? next thing you know, they're going to remake movies that were only made six years ago!!

  • the movie will suck anyway cas kenny ortega might be directing it and he directed high school musical so fuck this!!!!!!!!

  • The movie is not going to happen sorry.. the production of the Footloose has been off the release date for movies from Paramount.... :( It is in wikipedia... two directors have already dropped out of the project. and filming was suppose to start already in March 2010... so sorry guys.. maybe in the near future.. personally I choose Derek Hough... but then again it would be werid for him to play along his sister.

  • @sxystar41 wikipedia doesn't have credible information.

  • @sxystar41 wikipedia doesn't have credible information

  • @lostinthefireofgod

    i think he knows and everybody knows he'd be good in footloose, but if he keeps doing those roles, he'll only get those roles. how annoying will that be if zac's trying to expand his talent into other genres?

    besides, i love 17 again. it's a timeless, family classic.

  • @alexxxy

    also, being in a BIG FILM isn't valued by all celebs. you don't always have to have a big role in a big film. doesn't sound like he cares, why do you care?

  • why is Hollywood remaking all these good ass movies from the 80s?????

    leave the classics alone PLEASE!!!

    DONT LET ME SEE SOMEBODY REMAKE A JOHN HUGHES MOVIE!! IM GONNA BE PISSED!!

  • is that his new movie?

  • @MrKent000 the original is from 1984 but now they wanna make a new one? SHIT ITS GONNA BE TERRIBLE!!!

  • chase crawford is taking zacs place

  • If I am honest, He shouldn't have said no to Footloose, due to it being one of the biggest musicals. He wont be type casted, he can do a few musicals and then move on, he should do what John Travolta did do some musicals then just do straight acting then go back to musicals. However at the end of the day it's his choise, he probably had good reason for giving up the role, you really don't know do you? x

  • I think.... that they shouldn't even be making a remake to begin with....

    THAT BEING SAID...

    I think that Zac should've said yes.

    The only reason he should say no is if he already landed a great role doing something else...

  • I think it's funny that they are remaking Footloose. Nothing is going to compare to the Original FootLoose. I could be wrong but I bet this turns out to be stupid. The same reason they remade the Amityville Horror and we all know that remake was a joke. We will wait and see if I'm wrong....

  • GAY

  • Of course he made a good choice. When you become an actor you don't want to be known for one type of acting. You have to have diversity, all the greats do.

  • okay first off i dont think the movie will turn out good at all i luv zac efron but he made a great decision n the movie is gonna suck like my family said no one can remake footlose n after tht we found out tht they r. how stupid can everyone in hollywood get. no one i mean no one can remake tht movie i luv footlose its da best! so good job zac efron n besides chase crawford cant even sing so y is he in it idk either can zac (no offense) but they mix them all up so screw u hollywood!

  • th1s moviie - can be seen online for free z @ MOOV ZON . COM just google for the link above

  • Hah thank god. I hate Zac Effron. Footloose was an amazing movie....I hope they don't ruin it.

  • who doesn't hate him

  • Look I love the orig Footloose forget the remakes watch the orgin!

  • agree!

  • omg i SOOOO dont think they should redo footloose!! i like the 1980's one WAY better!! and kevin bacon back then is soooooo much hottter than zac efron!!!!!

  • i definetly agree.

  • IDK, personally I find him cheesy, he's gonna have 2 do a lot to be taken seriously as an actor and I think if he wants 2 do that he is gonna have to start taking movies that are more adult and serious in nature. I am actually looking forward to seeing Chase in the role, but I do not see how they can possibly make a movie as good as the original. That is one reason I do not like remakes, but on the other hand maybe it will introduce a new generation to older movies they might of never seen.

  • he is makeing  the movie

  • Who says Zac Efron or Chase Crawford is trying to BEAT Kevin Bacon?! When did this become a race? They weren't trying to replace him either!! They were attempting to recreate an awesome role portrayed by an awesome actor who is too old to reprise his role!!!! GET OVER YOURSELVES AND ENJOY THE DAMN MOVIE!!!!!

  • @narwyn u make a valid point. 

  • they never should have hired him in the first place,he would have been a horribel replacement for the main role that was originally portared by kevin bacon

  • I love Footloose, which is NOT a musical. I was watching Footloose last week and was thinking of who should play Ren, and it just came to me. Christofer Drew Ingle. He looks exactly like Kevon Bacon, but he doesn't act or dance, well of what others told me. Oh well.

  • you have alot ot fat fans girls hahah looking for you

    shit!!!!!!!!

  • YES! thank god!

  • True he could never beat Kevin Bacon. But Footloose is a classic, he should feel honored they wanted him. There's nothing wrong with being good at musicals, most actors/actresses aren't as rounded as he is, it's either acting or music, he's lucky he's both and shouldn't be ashamed of it.

  • @thumperway your totaly right he should have stayed with the movie and ignore what other people or if it was goissip mags said about him. There just jello of him and he should be very very proud. theres alot of people out in the world who would kill to be him for what he has done.

  • Yeah, good thing he dropped out because Kevin Bacon cannot be beat!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i totally agree!!!

  • i say wrong choice cos there were some propper cringe moments in 17 agin where it was like cheessy acting and a bit fake go back to stuff like hairspry - way better!

    omg vanessa in band slam so fake it was cringe and terrible - well to painful to watch! :( bit devoded

  • I think that zac efron made the right choice I never watched any hsm movies but liked him in hairspray and 17 again. Remember people everyone thought that Johnny Deep and Leo DeCaprio were screwing up there carrers but look at them now. I say go for it.

  • im glad he isnt doing it zac efron was bad enough in hsm. enough is enough with zac efron. he is definatly not talanted

  • Zac couldn't've lived up to Kevin Bacon anyway, so it was best he dropped out. He's too much of a good boy.

  • I don't care. Kevin Bacon's the shit!

  • I would love to watch Zac Efron in Footloose!!!!!!! Whose going to play the part now?!?!?!?!??!! But I guess for his career that might have been good... but what's wrong with singing, dancing, and acting? Seems like he's good at it. He still has an awesome career... apparently he doesn't want to continue that way... so ... i don't know.

  • We want zac

  • I don't know.. He's such a babyface!

  • Chase Crawfords taking his placee <333

  • omg really!! chase crawford!!!

  • i mean zac is amazing butt on the other hand i dont htink footloose should be re made at all... its a clasic and should stay the way it was. the first movie is deffinately unreplaceable

  • well footloose is one of those movies i think, that if you remake it and stuff up (, which will happen because footloose is a classic, i mean it might be cool, but footloose is a classic,) you'd lose a little reputation because you can't step up to the ranga in the 80's one...

  • Zac efron sux!!!!!!!!! I use to like him but now I HATE him and is Gf Vannessa. They both sux

  • i wish hed have done it but hes still good either way

  • Yeah..good drop out move....Besides Zac, you can never compare to Kevin Bacon...He's got more talent....

  • @RAUL2WATCH i know right and kevin bacon was hot and zac sorry but your kinda ugly. FAT NOSE plus in my school i am going to be ariel in my play

  • @EnglandPaige u know it...zac is way overrated...plus he probably treated Vanessa like shit when they were together...are they still? I don't keep up. Hollywood gossip is all same drama with no real life issues. kevin any day over zac..and don't get me started on justin beiber.. :-)

  • @EnglandPaige Zac Efron ugly?! ARE YOU BLIND ?!?! -.-

  • He's a crappy actor either way. Better quit acting altogether and find a job at Walmart or something like the rest of us.

  • Zac made the best decicion ever!! :D

  • it´s better without zac :D

    he in footloose???? oh my goood XD

  • nooooooooooooooooooooo, jag som verkligen såg fram emot att se han igen, love u Zac <3 forever no matter what

  • no its great i dont want zac to be in the footloose

    that was my favorite movie and he would ruin it for me

  • haah! I was just in footloose!

  • I understand why he did it but i think the movie would have been better with him

  • im so pissed off there remaking footloose that movie was awesome with kevin bacon and now they had to ruin it

  • Oh my god there are two bugs on the face of Zac!oh,its his eyes.

    I dont like him.

  • i think that its good that he wants to do different types of movies.

    if i was him, i wouldve done the same :)

  • They're rebooting FOOTLOOSE? Geeze... isn't it a little early for that? Maybe I'm just getting old.

  • i'm glad he dropped out!!! The original Footloose can never be remade to be better or even equal. The 80's Footloose is a classic. You can't replace classics!!!

  • i know its like remaking greece!

  • here is no doubt that zac would have done a GREAT job in footloose, but it was smart of him not to take it. the original footloose was an AMAZING movie and would have been ruined if it was remade. kevin bacon was sooo good in the first that people would have hated zac just for attempting to do the same things kevin bacon did in that movie. they still should not remake it because nothing could live up to the original footloose movie :)

  • he could ve done footloose than quit on musicals since footloose is a classic he would be even more famous.

  • you guys are morons zac is so cute Do you even know who i am ?

  • He is being stupid. If you do 4 Musical movies DO 5 FOOTLOOSE

  • he needs t be in as many movies as pos i love himmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

  • Zefron is a little bitch.

    FOOTLOOSE needs a real man.

    Kevin Bacon can still dance better than this clown.

  • kaye , they shouldnt make a remake of footloose , they are ganna ruin it ! footloose is one of those movies wherre you CAN NOT remake it . its too good of a movie .

  • idc what he does as long as hes doing something cuz hes like my frickin husband and i love him jkjk but i love himmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

  • He's being a moron. He's a terrible actor, he's a good singer and dancer. If he's going to start rejecting big musical rolls he'll never get work. Or rather, he will get work until 13 year old girls stop finding him attractive... and it's all down hill from there because he has no talents otherwise to fall back on.

  • I say he should've done it. He would've been soooo hott in it! And what ever gets him money you know? i think it was a good yet bad decision.

    If you think of it from his point of view, it was a good decision becuz he wants to be more than just the musical man. he wanted to do the role of 17 again to show singing and dancing isn't all he can do.

    In 17 Again he proved that he's an amazing actor and made a name for himself other than HSM

  • whats so bad about being a musical actor?

  • he maid a good decision 2 quit foot loose

  • he would have been perfect i love foot loose

  • You know, I've just come across this, but it makesa ton of sense, since I've always found Chace and Zac very similar in regards to their appearance. I'm so glad Chace is doing it, but I do think that Zac is more of the 'musical' type. I wouldn't say one is better than the other, they just have different acting experience... and it's really hard not to type-cast them. They are only well-known for certain shows.

  • how can you say that hes an amazing actor !!!!!!!!!!

  • I'm supper glad that he's not going to be in Footloose.

  • i'm glad he's not going to be in it! and that's because it would have been awful if he was.. now they can get someone better than Efron

  • u're not better than hem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:@

  • lmao and you are

    re: a twelve year old girl :)

  • CHACE CRAWFORD = HOTTTTTTT <3

  • this is megan noooooooo he has to be in it!!!!!!!

  • i don't see the movie from the 80's but im sure it be super better butim sad that efron quitted cause u now he'll be perfect for the role and i deslike chase!!!

  • u ppl make me sick. u r too dedicated to lives that r not part of urs. please feel free to bash on me. i wanna hear complaints. he's sexy.

  • a remake? the original was good but its an 80's classic. its like when you think footloose you automaticaly think 80's... they shouldnt remake it

  • I LOVE FOOTLOSE!! <3

    and soo great that zac efron quit..

    because chace crawford is much better. !!

  • Footloose is like one of the best dance movies of all time...they shouldn't replace the best one with a new one!

    and if they did i think it wouldnt be as gd.

  • There are some people dieng to be a actor/celebrity and be in big movies like footloose and he just turns them down .

  • i loved the original Footloose. I'm happy they're re-making it but i personally think the original will be much better,

  • footloose is a classic so they really should remake it to keep it in the culture but to be honest zac couldn't have made it good. course he's a good actor but this isn't a good movie for him.

  • whateva chace crawford will be so much better!!!

  • i think that even though zac wants to get away from the musical image he should have done the remake of footloose. he is probly one of the few guys that can pull off a redo of kevin's character

  • CRY CRY! How come he wanted to quit??? That's really broken my heart!

  • They should just not make it. Fuck Hollywood and their remakes. Best move Efron ever made.

  • AWESOME!

    downloadmoviesfree. biz. nf

  • LOL, I thought she said "Don't forget to rape this video" xD

    But seriously, I would love to see Efron in Footloose.

    It's a shame he dropped out.

  • not in my opinion he sucked

  • chace crawford is the best choice to play the role of kevin bacon in the footlose movie remake.  does he know how to dance and sing???

  • #1, Zac iz a stuckup, faggot ass, prick. #2 Footloose is 1 of those kinda movies u just CANT remake! Like Grease or Breakfast Club! Does any1 remember that GOD-awful JC Penny's commercial remake of The Breakfast Club scenes? Yea, imagine sittin through sumthin lik that 4 2 hours! And lets all face it, Zac aint that good of an actor. Sorry people, but seriously!

  • i do think its gd 2 do a variety of acting things

    but i'd hav luved 2 hav seen him in footloose

  • zac why dont u just do it!!!!!!!!! plz!!!!!!

  • idk i wanna see it but at the same time i fear theyre gonna make Footloose look like well..... c......rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.......­..........aaaaaaaaaaa........

    p you know doo doo!ughhhhhhhhhh oh wel

  • Hmmm...

    Can you say "remaking a classic FTL?"

    I for one will not watch this movie just because the dumb shits don't know enough to not fix what isn't broken. That also goes for the remake of The Karate Kid (The Kung Fu Kid) with the director Will Smith's son and Jackie Chan.

    Sorry Jackie, but there is a reason why people like Jet Li FAR better than you. You cannot take Chan seriously when all of his moves are meant to make people laugh rather than fuel the action seekers. Boo!

  • yesss i hope zac will brake up with vanessa vanessa is hot

  • YYYEEESSS

    footlosse is one of my fav movies and i was alittle mad when they said that he will be in the movie. i am happy that Chace Crawford will be in footloose because he is hot and looks more like Kevin Bacon

  • i think he did a good choice. he was only given roles for musicals. he's a good actor and i think he did 17 again pretty good especially because there was no singing [not the musical type] but yeah if he hadn't made that decision they would always see him as the singing dancing and acting actor and not as a serious actor with talent

  • Hmm, well, I think it's simply an interesting turn of events. I think he is typecasted and I always figured it was because, gasp, he's good at singing, dancing and *sometimes* acting. It makes since thathe should be in musicals, and I think it's a semi-bad choice to discourage that, since it's a good use of his talent. But if it's not what he wants to do that's his business. I may not like him that much but I still think it's up to him & it may be bad for his career if he snuffs out musicals.

  • I think that it is his choice and no one should be mad....... i really think he would have done an amaaaaaaaazing job in Footloose...

    but i still like him he is so great

  • zac is a fagbag.....

  • ZAC chose that he wanted to drop out of the movie... so let it be!! It's HIS life. I think that he could still sing and dance WHILE he is acting, but ZAC thinks otherwise, so let it be!! It's his life!! That's all I have to say. Zac, I still love you, no matter what you do...

  • He would have done a good job on Footloose but I think it was a good idea to quit it cause he needs to move away from singing and dancing and focouse on acting.

    cause thats what he wants to do. so GO ZAC!

    I still love you!

  • i'm SO glad he quit...

    i don't think they should be doing a remake anyways. footloose is a classic and theres no way on earth anyone (especially zac efron *rolls eyes*) can beat kevin bacon in the roll of ren...

    if you can't make it better, then don't freaking redo it.

  • I agree with you, strongly do.

    FINALLY someone on here who's sick of hearing from that douche Zac Efron

  • Hmmm, I wonder why you really hate him. Zac is a brilliant actor- did you not see him in 17 Again and Miracle Run??? He could take on almost any role and do it good. He's amazing

  • I do believe Zac made the right choice...I mean when it comes to career moves you have to not only think with your heart, but with your intellect as well. He has become quite an accomplished actor. I could really see that his acting skills have become finely tuned by his excellent role in '17 again'....Loved It...(Although they did somehow work in a dance routine into the script.) He has a promising future ahead...if he takes his time, aims high and paces himself...I wish him all the best!

  • ILOCE ZAC WHY DID HE DO THAT TO MEEE WHYY!!! like really he would have done an excellent job he is a pretty nice guy

  • lol! Your are (like) so (like) cute!

    hugs

  • I don't understand why Hollywood has to do remakes of classics that worked the firs time. Can they not be creative enough on their own that they have to go with an idea that has already been done?! Plus you can never ever replace Kevin Bacon....never!

  • you .... are... soo..... RIGHT!!!!! Hollywood has run out of ideas.... and none to boot, Kevin Bacon was awesome in that movie... none shall surpass him...

    and personally I think Zac should choose whatever he wants to do, he doesn't HAVE to be in another musical, especially if he doesn't want to be, he made a good choice in dropping out of it...

  • efron cant dance so it makes sence that he quit footloose! he wouldent be able to keeep up with the dancing

  • joe jonas should do it

  • NO ONE should do it

  • the first foot loose guy is UGLYYYYY

  • what a dumb ass. I hope who ever gets it. Does an outstanding job. Wait I saw Chase Crawford. Well i dont know anything about him singing and dancing. but hes allright on gossip girl. so i hope he kicks ass.

  • he was not BA enough for the part
