oh, i'm sure it's because of the musical.

and i don't want to think about a big screen remake. i love the script of the stage musical version, but my soul curdles at the thought of who they might cast in a big splashy film remake. if they cast kerry butler - the actress playing kira in the musical - it could be salvageable, but i can see them going with someone vile like jessica simpson or renee zellwiger or something.
