Zac Efron may have been the coveted actor for the role but it looks like Kenny Wormald will be filling in those dancing shoes just fine as the new star of the remake of the 1984 classic Footloose. The movie, which is set to be released this weekend, stars Wormald in the role that Kevin Bacon made famous.  Playing opposite the beautiful Julianne Hough, this movie is sure to be one to go see. The question, however, is whether or not this movie will live up to its expectations…
Kenny started dancing at six years old, and with his talent, made it into a career for himself. Touring with artists such as Justin Timberlake and appearing in music videos of some of the biggest stars including Christina Aguilera and Chris Brown. If you have seen any of the trailers for the movie, there is no question that the kid has got some real dancing ability. It may be safe to say that he’s got a lot more moves than Kevin Bacon ever had, but will he have as an esteemed career? It definitely looks possible.
We will have to wait and see what kind of money Footloose rakes in at the box office this weekend, and what people will be saying about the new up and comer. But Kenny Wormald is definitely one to watch as he’ll be having us all kicking off our Sunday shoes at the theater.
