Dirty Dancing 2 Update Shared By Jennifer Grey
Jennifer Grey recently shared an update on the sequel to her 1987 romantic drama Dirty Dancing. The film centered on Grey as Frances «Baby» Houseman, an upper-class young woman who, while vacationing with her family at a resort, falls in love with her dance instructor Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze), much to the chagrin of her father Jake (Jerry Orbach). The film was immensely popular with audiences with it quickly becoming one of the highest-grossing films of the year.
Dirty Dancing soon became a cult classic when it was released on home video. The film spawned a stage musical version on Broadway, a prequel entitled Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights, and a made-for-TV musical remake for ABC with Abigail Breslin in the starring role. In 2020, Dirty Dancing 2 was announced with Jennifer Grey reprising her role as Frances. The actor previously revealed that Swayze will not be replaced in the upcoming film due to his untimely death from pancreatic cancer in 2009.
