Jennifer Grey has revealed the truth about her relationship with Patrick Swayze in her new book, “Out of the Corner.” They worked together on “Red Dawn” before “Dirty Dancing,” and Grey wasn’t a fan of Swayze’s jokes. She found it annoying, but fate brought them back for “Dirty Dancing.” After a screen test, Swayze apologized, and things changed.
In her memoir, Grey talks about their complicated relationship during “Dirty Dancing.” They didn’t always get along but had to find a balance for the movie. Grey wishes she had accepted Swayze for who he was instead of trying to change him. Despite disagreements, she appreciates his talent and support during tough dance scenes.
Good news for “Dirty Dancing” fans – a sequel is in the works! Lionsgate is developing it, and Jennifer Grey will reprise her role as Baby under Jonathan Levine’s direction.
The sequel aims to include 90s hip-hop music and explore new themes while honoring Swayze’s legacy. Grey emphasizes they won’t replace Swayze; he was unique. The cast, including Grey, is committed to creating a fresh and unique sequel in his memory. Fans can look forward to a nostalgic yet contemporary take on the beloved world of “Dirty Dancing.”
