Hairspray 2: White Lipstick

[♥Ariel♥]

Due to Hairspray's financial success, New Line Cinema has asked John Waters to write a sequel to the film.[8] Waters will reunite with director/choreographer Adam Shankman for the project, and songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman are set to compose the film's musical numbers.[8][74] The story will look at Tracy's entering the late '60s era of music and the British invasion.[75] While no official casting has been announced, New Line has said that they hope to "snag much of the original Hairspray cast."[8] The sequel is tentatively set for a mid-July 2010 release by Warner Bros.[8] John Travolta has publicly announced that he will not return for the sequel.[76] Shankman also said that he does not plan to include the character of Velma Von Tussle (played by Michelle Pfieffer), and a possibility of excluding Velma's daughter, Amber (Brittany Snow). He also said that the film will use the Vietnam War as a backdrop.[77]

I loved the first hairspray! I cant believe that John travolta isnt coming back! He was really funny in the first one! Also, i wonder if zac effron is going to be in it hmmm.

I was excited.
Until you told me that John Travolta and Michelle Pfeiffer weren't coming back. I love them.
If Christopher Walken isn't in it, I will cry.
This sounds like it could be mediocre.

I really hope this doesn't happen. The first Hairspray was based off the Broadway Musical which was based off of a movie that didn't include singing. Making a second Hairspray would be almost like ruining a classic because it doesn't have a previous basis. Besides, if some of the original cast doesn't come back, that'll ruin the movie if they try to replace them or work around thier absence.
