Posted: 12/29/06 at 12:45pmThat's cool. Whenever a director is at a show someone's like "They're going to make a movie of it!"

Damn it Rath, you weren't supposed to leak the news.
Fine. Yes it's true. Spielburg. SPRING AWAKENING. 2009. He is replacing Lea Michelle though because she's actually 45 years old (shh!). Word is Rosario Dawson is in talks.

I heard that Sondheim will be re-working the score and that the film will be presented in the same structure as Merrily We Roll Along and the action will take place backwards.
Borrowing from Follies, each cast member will also have an adult counterpart
Menzel, Chenoweth, Pascal, Rapp, Cerveris and LuPone are all on board as well :)

Posted: 12/29/06 at 1:13pmNo the Adult Women will play the guitar. Mortiz is playing the flute.

Brilliant!

Posted: 12/29/06 at 1:20pmBut how will they make "Totally f**ked" adaptable to make the PG-13 rating? What word will they substitute?

They always replace F*** with forget so that people say "FORGET YOU!!!"
In other news, they are already planning a tv spinoff of the movie.

The CG FX on this one are going to be MASSIVE.
Spielberg's already working out the details with Lucas and ILM.
