New Line wants a second dose of Hairspray
New Line Cinema struck a deal with Hairspray creator John Waters to pen a treatment for a sequel to last summer's hit music feature. Director-choreographer Adam Shankman is expected to return, as well as producers Craig Zadan and Neil Meron. No stars from the original had sequel options, but New Line hopes to reunite the entire cast for the project, expected to be released in July 2010. Said director Shankman to Variety: "I never thought of musicals as franchises, but it certainly worked with ‘High School Musical,’ and the idea of working with that cast again, and creating new material and music, is a dream come true."
