"Glee" Co-Creator To Write "Dirty Dancing" Remake

One of the men behind the hit Fox show "Glee" is putting his talents behind a re-imagined version of "Dirty Dancing."  "Variety" reports Brad Falchuck is on board to write Lionsgate's musical remake of the 1987 movie, which originally starred Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze.  There's no word yet on who might fill their dancing shoes this time around, although Kenny Ortega has been tapped to direct.  Ortega served as the original film's choreographer, and has since made a name for himself as the director of the "High School Musical" trilogy and was behind the planning of Michael Jackson's "This Is It" concert series before the singer's untimely death in 2009.
