Besetzung und Crew von Footloose

Footloose

Es ist wieder Zeit zum Tanzen

Rock’n’Roll ist Ren MacCormacks Lebensmotto und Tanzen seine große Leidenschaft. Dumm nur, dass er damit in seiner neuen Heimat, einem gottesfürchtigen und verschlafenem Provinzkaff, in dem Reverend Shaw Moor das Sagen hat, auf wenig Gleichgesinnte stößt. Nach dem tödlichen Autounfall seines Sohnes hat der konservative Dorfpfarrer zahlreiche Verbote erlassen und allen voran Rockmusik, Alkohol und Tanzen als Teufelswerk aus der Stadt verbannt. Dass Ren sich ausgerechnet in die Tochter des Pfarrers verliebt, macht seine ohnehin schon schwierige Situation als Außenseiter nicht gerade einfacher.

Andie MacDowell

Vi Moore
Andie MacDowell delivered a nuanced and heartfelt performance as Vi Moore in the 1984 classic film "Footloose." As the wife of the Reverend Shaw Moore and the mother of Ariel Moore, Vi is a character caught between her respect for her husband's stringent moral code and her growing empathy for the town's youth, who are yearning for the freedom to express themselves through music and dance. MacDowell imbued Vi with a gentle strength and a quiet resilience, beautifully conveying her internal struggle and ultimate transformation. Her portrayal of a woman finding her voice and advocating for change within her family and community is both compelling and emotionally resonant. MacDowell's performance is marked by a warmth and authenticity that makes her a standout character, providing a compassionate counterbalance to the more rigid forces at play in the film. Her scenes, particularly those shared with her on-screen husband played by John Lithgow, are some of the most poignant in the movie, highlighting the complexities of love, faith, and community.
Miles Teller as Willard Hewitt

Miles Teller

Willard Hewitt
In the 2011 remake of the classic dance film "Footloose," Miles Teller delivers a standout performance as Willard Hewitt, the charming and friendly yet somewhat dimwitted sidekick to the lead character, Ren McCormack. Teller brings a magnetic energy to the role, infusing Willard with an endearing warmth and an infectious enthusiasm that make his character an instant fan favorite. His comedic timing is impeccable, providing many of the film's lighthearted and humorous moments, while his dynamic on-screen chemistry with Kenny Wormald's Ren adds depth to their blossoming bromance. Teller's Willard may start off as a bit of a punchline, but his journey to self-improvement, particularly his determination to learn how to dance despite his initial lack of rhythm, becomes one of the film's most satisfying arcs. His performance is a testament to his versatility as an actor, showcasing his ability to balance humor with heart. Teller's portrayal of Willard Hewitt is a memorable update to the character that resonates with a new generation, while still paying homage to the original film's spirit.
