Steven Spielberg's WEST SIDE STORY - News & Discussion Thread

Love how shocked people are that Ansel is full out in public. He’s part of the film and is contractually obligated to be part of all the press for the film, alleged accusations or not. Geez.

I came here to say the same thing! Ansel sounds so good, and that Young Girl Maria and Old Lady Maria shots put a huge smile on my face!

Ansel appeared on Kelly & Ryan this morning. He talked about an anecdote that Sondheim shared with him about confidence and mentioned he would be interested in doing a stage production next. When asked what show, he said “Guys & Dolls.”

Ariana will appear on the show tomorrow.

Does anyone know what's happening with the "inspired by" songs from the new artists that were supposed to be on the soundtrack?

The track listing doesn't feature them, just the songs from the movie.

Maybe they will be on a deluxe version, or a separate release?

Musical Master said: "Great to know that the soundtrack will be out this week, at least digitally. Here's another new TV Spot and also soundbites from the cast and crew are now out on YT.

Weird editing choices made for this commercial. They cut the word "gringo" out of Bernard's line and Tony's line "Run away me" was overdubbed into the scene where he secretly meets Maria under the bleachers which he originally said to her while holding her hand from below the fire escape. They overdubbed a completely different line for that scene as well.

Thanks, Brody!

Wow! On the 40th anniversary of Natalie Wood's untimely and tragic death.

I wish she were alive to be a part of all of this excitement.

I wish she could’ve met Rachel

I was just looking over the tracklist, and the song Cool is credited to Mike and Ansel…I’m wondering if this means Tony will have a chance to really dance in this new version? I would assume he does more than just sing in that number?

Tony isn’t a dancing Jet. I’m sure there’s some spoken word included on the track hence Ansel’s credit on the track.

Yep! And the number will be choreographed, so Tony is a dancing jet in this version!
