Patrick Swayze Set For Dirty Dancing Sequel?

Patrick Swayze is reportedly toying with the idea of reprising his best known role in a proposed sequel to 1987 movie Dirty Dancing.

The film - which also starred Jennifer Grey - spawned a spin-off movie Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights in 2004 with a young, relatively unknown cast.

But now Swayze - who is currently battling pancreatic cancer - is said to be considering a return to the role of misunderstood dancer Johnny Castle.

"It's great news that Patrick is so well and there are lots of offers for him," a source tells Metro.

"Everyone wants him to star in a 'Dirty Dancing' sequel. It's just a matter of him making his mind up."

The 55-year-old is back at work following his cancer diagnosis, starring in new TV series The Beast.
