Rick Springfield upcoming movie to be released on October!
On August 20, 2014, a Twitter user posted about news on Rick Springfield upcoming movie: Ricki and The Flash. He said "He (Rick Springfield) is filming movie w/Meryl Streep. The film schedule was same time as tour".
Checkout his official tweet.
On the shared source (Myq105.cbslocal.com), it is reporaid that Jessie's Girl Hitmaker signed to play in a movie titled Ricki and the Flash, alongside Meryl Streep.
The movie focuses on the story of an aging rock star, Ricki (played by Streep) who tries to connect with her estranged kids. Springfield will play the role of a band member who has a crush on Ricki. Fans can expect that the singer will be showing off his skills on the guitar for this film project.
Scott Walker mentioned in his article "Is this the song 'Jessie's Girl' made into a movie, cause Jessie and Ricki sound alike?" he said.
If you will watch the official video of this hitmaker, the song is all about the girl he likes. Unfortunately, the girl is already taken. If you will compare the plot of the movie and the song, they have some similarities.
Lately, Kdramastars published a report about Australian singer-songwriter upcoming movie and the cancellation of the Australian tour.
Many Aussies got disappointed after announcing that tour will never happened, according to News.com.au. The source also added that many of them have waited almost 30 years to see the Sydney-born musician tour in their country.
The exact statement of the Sydney born singer's promoter:
"I don't use excuses like 'scheduling conflicts' or 'routing difficulties'," he said.
"The shows had actually sold really well, most venues were half full if not almost sold out. We've had female fans crying on the phone today."
He added, "We were about to do a second burst of promotion for the tour when we got wind this movie role was coming up. We didn't want to cancel the tour until Rick signed the contract, which he did today. He's filming in New York at the exact same time as he was meant to be touring in Australia. I'm positive if he hadn't got this role he would have toured here. He was born in Australia, his mum still lives in Melbourne, he was really keen to get back here and tour the country for the first time."
For additional report, last August 8, 2014, News.com.au got the statements from the singer-songwriter about working with his upcoming movie. He said:
"I was so looking forward to playing for you for the first time in 30 years. I promise to make it up to you next year". he said about the Australian tour.
"In the meantime, this movie is a great opportunity. It's not every day that Meryl Streep and Jonathan Demme come calling." he added, reffering to his upcoming film.
The target month of release of this movie is October. But no other details about the exact date yet.
