"Footloose" (2011) from co-writer and director Craig Brewer ("Hustle & Flow," "Black Snake Moan") delivers a new take of the beloved 1984 classic film. Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont's local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister's troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.

The cast includes Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough, Andie MacDowell and Dennis Quaid.

"Footloose" (2011) is produced by Spyglass Entertainment, Dylan Sellers Zadan and Meron Weston Pictures. The film is directed by Craig Brewer from a screenplay by Dean Pitchford and Craig Brewer that is based on an original story by Pitchford. The producers are Craig Zadan, Neil Meron, Dylan Sellers and Brad Weston. The executive producers are Timothy M. Bourne, Gary Barber, Roger Birnbaum and Jonathan Glickman.

The film is brought to life by a creative team that includes director of photography Amy Vincent, production designer Jon Gary Steele, costume designer Laura Jean Shannon and editor Billy Fox.
