Stars Are Born

Choreographer and TV director Kevin Tancharoen ("Pussycat Dolls Presents: The Search for the Next Doll") will make his feature film directing debut remaking "Fame"

The 1980 original flick was helmed by Alan Parker and has already spawned a TV series and a musical...

Variety says the new version will be written by Allison Burnett and follows the lives of students who attend an elite school for the performing arts in New York from audition to graduation.

Production is due to begin before Labor Day. Casting calls will go out on both coasts within the next 4 weeks...

Given the popularity of Step Up, Step Up 2 the Streets, American Idol and Dancing With The Stars-Not a shock really. In fact, I would say, I'm surprised a remake took so long.
