Kevin Bacon earned a huge following of fans after dancing his way through Footloose back in 1984. And with the 2011 remake, newcomer Kenny Wormald has huge dancing shoes to fill.

Kenny Wormald leads the cast as Ren MacCormack and Julianne Hough plays Ariel Moore. Dennis Quaid stars as Reverend Shaw, Miles Teller is Willard, and Ziah Colon is Rusty.

The PG-13 dance film opens in theaters on October 14, 2011.

Official Synopsis: Ren MacCormack (Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont’s local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing.

Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister’s troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.
