Adam Shankman has revealed a possible outline for Hairspray 2, the proposed sequel to the recent hit film musical based on the Broadway show Hairspray. With the view of a July 2010 release, the John Waters penned outline takes Tracy Turnblad (played by Nikki Blonsky in the first film) and company through the super-political period of the late 1960s, with the music of that time period focusing their journey. The aim would be to track history in a comedic way and to incorporate the the British music invasion in a storyline for Link (who was played Zac Efron in the recent film).
More news as it comes, folks – but that’s it for now…
Yes, I read they’re going to incorporate the British music invasion. That doesn’t sound like a great idea to me.
