Jennifer Grey says expect a lot of dancing, music, romance in 'Dirty Dancing' sequel
The actress said she will reprise her iconic role of Baby.
For fans of "Dirty Dancing," get ready, because the long-awaited sequel is happening.
Actress Jennifer Grey, who played Baby in the 1987 film, told “Good Morning America” that a second film is coming and that she will also reprise her role.
“Right now, getting as close as we’ve ever been to -- I think it is happening this year, the sequel for ‘Dirty Dancing,’” Grey said. “And I’m executive producing and starring in it, and I am playing Baby.”
As for other details, fans can expect to be transported back to the resort where we first had “The Time of Our Lives.”
“It will be at Kellerman’s. There will be dancing, there will be a lot of music and romance,” Grey said.
Grey, who rose to fame with her performance in the iconic film alongside Patrick Swayze, has also published a new memoir, “Out of the Corner.”
“What I hope people take away from this book is that no one’s life is perfect,” Grey said. “You don’t get out unscathed. For me, the most painful moments, the most confounding situations, are the ones that I’ve grown the most from and that were, I guess, necessary to get me to where I am today ... which is happier than I’ve ever been, is the truth.”
