According to the LA Times, Jon M. Chu (
Step Up 2, Justin Bieber: Never Say Never) has nabbed both Molly Ringwald and Juliette Lewis to star in his live action
Jem And The Holograms movie. Those of a certain age will probably remember Ringwald from the likes of
Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles, The Breakfast Club, and the tv miniseries take on Stephen King's
The Stand. While Lewis has appeared in
Cape Fear, Kaliforna, Natural Born Killers among many others; and she also fronted the rock band "Juliette and the Licks" for years before moving on to pursue solo work. The site don't reveal who they'll play in the movie but since none of "The Misfits" (the bad guys) have been cast yet, we'll assume it'll be a couple of them. The movie will be produced by Jason Blum (
Insidious, Paranormal Activity) and Scooter Braun.
