‘Valley Girl’ Remake Taps Director Rachel Lee Goldenberg
If there are two things that Hollywood seems to love nowadays more than anything else, it’s reboots and musicals. Star Wars, Godzilla, King Kong, Harry Potter and the like are in a maelstrom of reboot/sequel fever, while Sing Street, London Road, and La La Land are just a few of recent movie-musicals poised to reignite the big-screen genre. The latest to get the reboot treatment is 1983’s Valley Girl, which starred Nicolas Cage and Deborah Foreman in a romantic teen comedy loosely based on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The musi-boot reboosical has just acquired Rachel Lee Goldenberg to direct.
