Screen Gems leaking this news today they’re already filming an element adaptation of Benson Lee’s 2007 dance documentary Planet B-Boy, in regards to a crew of yankee breakdancers who compete around the world’s stage against deck hands from another country. Sure, it may sound like yet another dance movie. However I request you: What’s wrong with this? I Really Like DANCE MOVIES! And when you like dance movies like I actually do, then you will find a minimum of two additional explanations why you’ll totally mark your calendars with this particular project. Reason # 1: Chris Brown. Reason number two: Laz Alonso. Exactly what do both of these share? STOMP THE YARD. Now, any dance movie aficionado recognizes that Brown and Alonso don’t really share moments in Sylvain Whitened’s 2007 picture, in regards to a youthful guy in the hood (Columbus Short) who manages to lose his brother (Brown) inside a tragic publish-dance fight expensive of violence, then finds themself at school engaging in the step scene, where he runs across Alonso’s rival fraternity step crew leader. Further: Any Stomp the Yard diehard recognizes that Brown’s brief screen time is simply AMAZING, filled with dynamic choreography with no little bit of exactly what the kids make reference to nowadays as ‘swag.’ I’ve heard talk about many people weeping (silently, privately) at his character’s sad demise. Ahem. So, anyway: Screen Gems gathering not just one, but two Stomp the Yard alumni inside a bboying movie? I’m offered. And just how much wouldn't it decide to try get Columbus Short onboard, in the end’re in internet marketing? Screen Gems Sets Cast for Planet B-Boy [Deadline] Follow Jen Yamato on Twitter.
