A new theatrical release of Fame is set to come out this September and the trailer for the film just went live.
While it isn’t explicitly said on the website anywhere, the new Fame uses the same logo that came with the original 1980 version of the film by the same name, which leads me to believe that the new film is, at least in some way, still about The New York High School of Performing Arts (which later merged with The High School of Music and Art to become LaGuardia High School).
Having seen the original Fame more times than I’d like, I’m curious as to whether or not this new version will be any good. I think a part of me wants to see it because it’s loosely based on the high school I went to. Thanks for the heads up, G!
You didn’t come see my senior show when we did Fame. :(
Along with the logo, the music in the trailer is from the orignal… and the characters seem to be the same… so yeah its the same Fame!
