What ever!!!!!!!!!!! This dude better be good in the movie
Chucky Kaplow, the choreographer for the film, recently talked about the stress of putting together the dance numbers in such a short amount of time to The Grand Rapids Press. "We only had 10 full days of dancing rehearsal for the first film -- I have no idea how we actually did it! The second movie we took three weeks to do the dancing, and right now we are in the middle of five full weeks of dance rehearsal," he said. Kaplow had nothing but praise for the actors. "This cast is so dedicated and talented. We all raised the bar for
HSM 2, now we need to go back to that iconic, basic movement that made the first movie so great."
"Vanessa is the most naturally gifted in picking up the new moves,” he told The Grand Rapids Press. However, there is one drawback to working with someone who learns his dances so quickly. "Things come really easily for her, so she gets lazy with it because she has to wait for the others to catch on. I have to be like, 'Vanessa, let's get working here.” He also praised the dance skills of Corbin Bleu, saying, "Corbin is also a gifted dancer, and he comes from a performing arts background, so he picks things up fast." The actual filming of the movie will kicks off next month and will wrap in June.
