Rock of Ages has a Trailer
So I love movie versions of Broadway Musicals. As someone who doesn't have the money to constantly take many trips to New York to watch those musicals over and over and over again, the next best thing is geting a movie version. So whenever I get wind of a Musical being adapted into a movie, I'm always supportive, even if some creative liberties are going to be taken.
Sometimes A movie adaptation gets the bulk of the Broadway cast to be in the movie (Rent and The Producers) while sometimes A whole new slew of famous people are cast to help the movie's chances with some star power (Hairspray and Mamma Mia!) It doesn't take much of the trailer to guess where on that scale Rock of Ages seems to be in. I would love a chance to see the original cast do the show, even just a filmed copy of the actual show one night (we don't get nearly enough of those) but I can understand why those big names need to be there.
Also, note that the last movie to use We Built This City" in the trailer was The Muppets. And that at least worked out.
Anyway check out the trailer below.
Oh yea and here's the poster which came out as well.
