Members R!ck Posted June 27, 2006 Members Share Posted June 27, 2006 Newcomer Nicole Blonsky has been cast in the lead role of Tracey Turnblad. Before getting the role she worked as an ice cream scooper at ColdStone Creamery, and appeared in high school plays. Brittany Snow (Guiding Light, Nip/Tuck, American Dreams) has been cast as Tracey's arch enemy Amber Von Tussle Zac Efron (High School Muscial) has been cast as the hunky Link Larkin. Amanda Bynes (What I like About You, She's The Man) has been cast as Tracey's best friend Penny Pingleton. Billy Crystal is in talks to play Tracey's father Wilbur Turnblad.

Members Shawn Posted June 28, 2006 Members Share Posted June 28, 2006 I'm still aghast that John Travolta is playing Edna Turnblad. Its just disturbing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R!ck Posted June 28, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 28, 2006 I agree Shawn, Bruce Vilanch or Harvey Weinsten would have been much better choices Now that Brittany Snow is playing Amber Von Tussle I am officially excited! I just wish they would get Debbie Harry to reprise her role as Velma Von Tussle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
