Messing shared about the upcoming remake of Dirty Dancing, saying, “This isn’t a replica of the original. This takes some liberties. it has the DNA of the original, but you are going to find out what happened to Baby and Johnny after the summer ended. So there’s some additional surprises in there that are new.”

“My hope is that people who loved the movie are going to be happy with all the things that are iconic with the movie, that they’ll appreciate the things that are new and modernized with this version.”

Dirty Dancing is directed by Wayne Blair and choreographed by Hamilton’s Andy Blankenbuehler. The film will release on May 24, 2017 on ABC.

The original Dirty Dancing was released back in 1987 and starred Jennifer Grey and the late Patrick Swayze. The film became an iconic movie of the ’80s, particularly with scenes like the dance sequence of Time Of My Life.
