Get Ready for Step Up 3-D
Not to mention 18 percent Tomatometer 3-D.
First, Disney ordered you to Step Up, and you complied. Then, they demanded that you Step Up 2 the Streets -- and you did that, too. You know what comes next, right?
Yes, gang, the House That Walt Built is brewing up Step Up 3-D.
Variety reports that Disney has inked a deal with Offspring Entertainment, the company behind the Step Up franchise, keeping the company under the Disney mantle for another three years. The move comes after Step Up 2 the Streets earned back its $20 million production budget in its opening weekend.
Of course, fancy footwork isn't all Offspring's got going for it; founders Adam Shankman and Jennifer Gibgot also brought the studio titles such as Sandra Bullock's Premonition and the upcoming Zac Efron comedy Seventeen, not to mention the following crowded development slate:
Among the projects that Offspring is developing at Disney are "Undateable," a comedy scripted by Jack Angelo and Sam Brown (with Fuse Entertainment also producing); "Monday, Monday," a Flint Wainess-scripted comedy that is a teenage "Groundhog Day"; "Wish," a live-action "Aladdin" scripted by Bill Kelly ("Enchanted"); a Jason Filardi-scripted "Topper" remake that Offspring will produce with Mandeville, with Steve Martin starring; and a Don Scott-scripted remake of "All of Me" that has Queen Latifah attached to star.

This is Steve Martins best film and NOT in need of an update at all. Oh, they're making a 3D sequel to some Step Up dancing movie...who cares. (Reply to this) |
