Get Famous In Fame!By Katey Rich: 2008-08-13 16:45:33
You've got to hand it to the people behind the remake of Fame. True to a story about young nobodys hoping to become famous, the new Fame is open to casting some non-famous faces. Moviehole.net got its hands on the casting breakdowns for the movie, and there are a ton of roles up for grabs, including a handful of young lead roles and a lot of supporting parts for adult actors.The descriptions are hilarious in their cliched way, meaning we're probably going to be getting exactly the kind of hokey Fame we're expecting. There's Marco, the “ruggedly handsome” working-class kid with the best voice in school. Or how about Victor, who fancies himself “a real lady's man” and is described as a “Rico Suave.” Poor Rosie is pretty much only intended to be a teenage version of Jennifer Lopez, and Miss Rowan, the singing teacher, is a country-accented nurturer with an “incredible singing voice.” To be fair, I don't see anything wrong with these descriptions-- I mean, how else are they going to let actors know if they're right for the parts?-- but it's funny to see all of the character traits, and half the plot, laid out right there on the page. I mean, when you hear about Reverend Dupree, the stern father of Denise who wants her to study piano and disapproves when she wants to branch off into musical theater, you have to assume that in the end he'll be dancing in the aisles to the tune of “Hello, Dolly!” Moviehole.net stressed that they don't have any contact with the casting department, and no, they can't get you a part. But hey! If you see yourself in that description of the golden-voiced Miss Rowan, now might be your chance for some—sing it with me-- FAME! RELATED: fame
