Watch the New Trailer for Center Stage: On Pointe
May 6, 2016
Center Stage is, in my humble opinion, the most important dance movie of all time (if not the most important movie in general). Every moment was iconic, everyone was so beautiful and every costume change was so truly #goals, I can’t even:
Same.
So I, along with many other fans, have been a little skeptical about the latest follow-up to our beloved 2000 classic (because we can’t forget the OG sequel, Center Stage: Turn It Up). But everyone can breathe a collective sigh of relief, because the trailer for Center Stage: On Pointe delivers. Let’s break it down, shall we?
- Intense, high-pressure audition? Check. The trailer opens with our main character revealing she’s vying for a spot in the “American Ballet Company.” But plot twist—according to the diner patron she’s speaking to in the trailer, she’s “not the ballet type,” which leads us to…
- Intense, high-pressure training montage? Check! Honestly the best part of dance movies is the blood, sweat and tear-filled studio scenes, culminating in the always-exciting finales. It’s pretty much a guarantee we’ll be getting that with this film.
- Ballet everywhere. Check!! As a (not-so-secret) ballet maniac, I was very excited to see the glimpses of pointe shoes and partnering class, not to mention all the falls. Nothing like a good spill (only on camera, of course!).
- Ethan Stiefel and Sascha Radetsky as “top choreographers” Cooper and Charlie? Check and check. Enough said.
I don’t know about you, but my countdown clock to June 25th starts now. In the meantime, I’ll just be watching these GIFs in preparation. Don’t miss the full trailer below.
