It’s a cautionary tale about the capriciousness of Hollywood to which a Dirty Dancing sequel represents an uplifting coda. In her new memoir, ‘Out of the Corner’, Dirty Dancing ’s breakout star Jennifer Grey writes candidly about the painful turn her career took after playing Frances ‘Baby’ Houseman – including the regrets she feels over the nose job designed that was designed to open up new roles to her, but did the opposite. Well, there’s a few reasons to hope that this will be more than just a case of cultural grave-robbery when it arrives in 2024, starting with the involvement of the 1987 classic’s star herself… Photograph: Lionsgate Baby (Jennifer Grey) and Johnny (Patrick Swayze) in ‘Dirty Dancing’ 1. So is the just-announced sequel – also called Dirty Dancing – a step too far? Does it risk shattering precious memories of Johnny and frozen forever in our minds, destroying our childhoods and sending us all into therapy? ĭirty Dancing could just be the ultimate revival, with the story of buttoned-up teenager Frances ‘Baby’ Houseman and kind-hearted bad boy Johnny Castle’s dance-fuelled love affair one of the decade’s true holy grails. Ghostbusters has recently had a second, fan-fawning reboot, Top Gun is back, and even Ke Huy Quan – aka Data from The Goonies – is helping bring a few joyous memories to moviegoers of a certain age via his turn in Everything Everywhere All At Once.

Unashamed ‘80s Hollywood nostalgia is everywhere at the moment.
