Story Plot

Ren McCormack, a teenager from Chicago moves to a small Midwestern town full of religiously delusional pigs with his single mother to live with his maternal aunt and uncle after his father abandoned him. Outraged at the town's zealously senseless, petty, unorthodox, and immoral condemning of dancing and rock-n-roll music as heresies and a crime, McCormack with the help of some of his classmates attempts to overturn the town's nebulous ban on dancing, resulted from the efforts of the town's power-hungry and God-fearing minister.

  • Question then do you feel it's. gotta be old people through out? Or is it okay to use anyone not in their senior year. Is not of the original cast but new enough to play the high school kids
  • @27f6j920 You don't seem to get the memo. Actors in their 20s back during whichever decades were known to play high school students. It was also the same for actors in their 30s to play college students. Kevin Bacon was 26 during the original release of the 1984 movie.
  • People need to be reminded that this is an alternate casting fo the original 1984 Footloose, NOT the remake. Actors and actresses born in the late '80s throughout the '90s don't count to play whomever in the original Footloose because they WEREN'T even born yet. And people don't want to hear some piss-poor excuse about spit with not knowing who was born whenever in which decade.
