Pretty In Pink 2: Duckie's Revenge

That long-rumored Pretty In Pink sequel is moving forward for a release
next year (link via Trent). Molly Ringwald, Andrew McCarthy, and John Cryer
will star (sorry, no Diceman).

Despite an inferior rerecording of P-Furs' '81 classic and the inexplicable
inclusion of Danny Hutton instead of Nic Kershaw (see last paragraph),
John Hughes' PiP soundtrack was pretty rad. Remember, Breakfast Club
had only one good song. To refresh your memory, this was the Pretty
tracklist:

1. Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark - "If You Leave"
2. Suzanne Vega w/ Joe Jackson - "Left of Center" (MP3)
3. Jesse Johnson - "Get to Know Ya"
4. INXS - "Do Wot You Do"
5. Psychedelic Furs - "Pretty in Pink"
6. New Order - "Shellshock"
7. Belouis Some - "Round, Round"
8. Danny Hutton Hitters - "Wouldn't It Be Good"
9. Echo & the Bunnymen - "Bring on the Dancing Horses"
10. The Smiths - "Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want"
And of course there were great tunes not on the LP. Read Pretty In Pink's
Top Ten Musical Moments for those.

And here's some trivia from IMDB:

-The original ending had Duckie getting the girl, but test audiences
preferred Blaine. (Plus, John Hughes was concerned audiences would take
the original ending as a message that poor people and rich people don't
belong together.) When the actors came back to reshoot, Andrew
McCarthy had lost a lot of weight and shaved his head for a play. He had
to wear a wig, but is noticeably more gaunt in the end scenes.

-"Goddess of Love" was the original song OMD composed for the movie but
it didn't fit with the new ending.

-Anthony Michael Hall turned down the role of Duckie.
