You know that the creative juices have officially been drained from Hollywood when they start coming out with more remakes and sequels than they do original material. And the originality drought has spread to Broadway, which is crammed with adaptations of hit films like Shrek and Legally Blonde.
It’s really embarrassing.
Right here and now, I am predicting that there will be either a remake, sequel, prequel or a musical adaptation of Back to the Future. I can’t tell you when it will happen, but I just know.
I hope it’s soon. I need more Christopher Lloyd in my life.
Jane Fonda is set to return to Broadway this March for the first time in 40 years. She’ll be appearing in “33 Variations”, a play about a musicologist who studies Beethoven’s obsession with a particular musical piece.
Snore. And I thought she was starring in the new “Shrek” musical.
