Remaking Dirty Dancing! Forget the controversy...Who should play Johnny Castle!

My vote goes to Neil Patrick Harris
He can dance, sing, and well he is super hot and loss for the women of the world! David is a lucky man
This scene in how I met your mother proves he has got what it takes!
www.youtube.com...
Sure he is not as buff as swayze..but he still has it!

Forgetting the argument that they should just leave this classic alone (cause its great as it is)
Who is the man you want to see!

Yes I know he is gay....that's why I said he is such a loss to women, and that david his partner is a lucky guy.
He plays a straight womanizer on HIMYM....i think he can pull off johnny!

Hugh Jackman!
He's buff and he knows how to sing and dance! He is hot no matter who or what he plays.
Who ever they pick will never be as good as Patrick.

How about Justin Timberlake? He can definitely dance and he's turned into a pretty good actor. I wonder who will play Baby - someone unknown probably should...

So true, patrick was the best!
Hugh is very sexy!

Baby is easy....Jennifer Hough (from Dancing With the Stars, but also some films).

She's hot, and can really dance, and has that sweet innocence needed for the character.

Johnny is a toughie though.... Taylor Laughtner from the Twilight franchise would probably work, if he can dance. He has the right build, and has the wrong side of the tracks look needed for the part. (more importantly, he'd bring over his fans from that franchise)...
