there is ONLY ONE edna and that is divine period - end of sentence.
this article makes NO mention of john waters i HOPE he has NOTHING to do with this AT ALL. i'm upset - this STINKS
his movies have gone downhill (in my opinion). i disliked cecil b demented and REALLY disliked a dirty shame (although both movies DID have some great parts here and there) . pecker was the last decent movie he made. HAD to love that one!
uh oh, in checking the imdb i see john IS the screenwriter for the new hairspray. WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT damn damn damn!
Travolta 'set for Hairspray lead'
Actor John Travolta (gag gag and more gagging) is to play the lead female role in the new film version of Hairspray, according to reports.
The 52-year-old will play dowdy housewife Edna Turnblad in the movie, says Hollywood newspaper Daily Variety.
Hairspray, which has become an award-winning Broadway stage musical, was first made into a film in 1988.
It starred actress turned talk show host Ricki Lake, while Edna Turnblad was played by transvestite performer Divine, who died the same year. ............
