The ol' quote goes: "Nobody puts Baby in the corner." These days, however, it might be more appropriate to say that nothing can keep Patrick Swayze down. The actor's initial cancer reports sounded so very grim, but there Swayze is, looking pretty darned healthy and kicking the big C right in the keister.He's currently filming the A&E series The Beast in Chicago, and now insiders have told the Metro that he may go back to the role that made him uber famous. The insider said: "It's great news that Patrick is so well and there are lots of offers for him. Everyone wants him to star in a Dirty Dancing sequel. It's just a matter of him making his mind up."
We should take this with a grain of salt, but for once, I'm not totally against the news. If done right, and with a lot of the actors from the original, it could be great to watch them dance again. But then I get to thinking about WHEN it would have to take place. It's been 21 years since the original, which was set in the '60s. So that means it'd have to be a flick taking place in the '80s...
Would you want to see Johnny Castle don a Flock of Seagulls 'do and dirty dance again?
1. I wasn't that crazy for the first film so I wouldn't want to see another one. That said I am very happy that Swayze is doing well. I've seen a recent picture and he is looking better too. :)
