Patrick Swayze considering Dirty Dancing sequel?
Patrick Swayze has reportedly been approached to star in a sequel to his hit 1987 movie Dirty Dancing.
The film, which also starred Jennifer Grey, spawned a spin-off movie Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights in 2004 with a young, relatively unknown cast.
But now Swayze – who is currently battling pancreatic cancer – is said to be considering a return to the role which shot him to international fame.
A source tells British newspaper Metro, “It’s great news that Patrick is so well and there are lots of offers for him. Everyone wants him to star in a ‘Dirty Dancing’ sequel. It’s just a matter of him making his mind up.”
The 55-year-old is back at work following his cancer diagnosis, starring in new TV series The Beast.
