    Spielberg may be directing a West Side Story remake. We all know how big of a fan Jennifer is, so let’s hope she’s able to get a role!

    Wanted to start a thread so we can start throwing this idea out there!

    What do you guys think? Who could she play?

      Wonder if it's the musical she was talking about, would like to see her but usually the remakes are horrible and this is a very classic movie that I'm afraid the remake will ruin it.

        Well, with Steven Spielberg directing...
        I wouldn’t worry about that at all!

          I have in my mind that this should beperformed as a Broadway show or am I wrong?

                The character Rita Moreno Plays in the movie is very small (i got surprised when i watched the movie and noticed that she won an Oscar for that role). I guess JLo can only play the mother of the main character

                  Also, West Side Story doesn't need a remake. The movie still holds up, and I don't see why any decent director, especially Spielberg (!?) would even consider it. If Spielberg were to do a musical, he'd be better off making something original.

                    Right. The remake of Dirty Dancing was trashed on. It had a low critics score and the audience score was even lower. Remakes aren't really good. Something new is needed for a change.
