Shankman Will Direct Rock of Ages on Screen

Adam Shankman, who directed and choreographed the movie adaptation of the Tony Award-winning musical Hairspray, has been chosen to bring the 1980s rock musical spoof Rock of Ages to the screen.

Shankman told Variety "I'm thinking big, and absolutely am going to attempt to cast with movie stars. Now that musicals are working again, actors are much more open to it,".

Rock of Ages is currently playing on Broadway starring "American Idol" finalist Constantine Maroulis and Tony nominee Kerry Butler.

we'll see how it turns out, Hairspray turned out pretty cute.
