"Nobody puts Baby in a corner." Yes, that's right. A "Dirty Dancing" remake is in the works as ABC has greenlit the project.

News of a "Dirty Dancing" remake has been swirling around for years, and now it's finally happening, according to Deadline. The remake, however, will not make its way to the silver screen. Instead, the romantic drama movie will be shown on television.

Set in the early 1960s, "Dirty Dancing" is the story of Frances "Baby" Houseman (Jennifer Grey), a young woman who goes on a vacation with her wealthy Jewish American family at Kellerman's--a resort located in the Catskill Mountains. She discovers dirty dancing and falls in love with the resort's working-class dance instructor, Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze).

The three-hour remake will reportedly follow the same storyline as the 1987 original film.

Oscar-nominated actress Abigail Breslin ("Little Miss Sunshine," "Scream Queens") has been confirmed to star in the remake as Frances "Baby" Houseman.

No other casting news has been confirmed.

The remake of the Academy Award winning film will have Allison Shearmur ("The Hunger Games") and Eleanor Bergstein as executive producers. Bergstein previously wrote the script for the original film. Jessica Sharzer ("The L Word") has been enlisted to write the adaptation.

A previous planned reboot had Kenny Ortega (the "High School Musical" trilogy) in the director's chair, but this remake will reportedly be directed by Wayne Blair ("The Sapphires").

Adam Anders and Peer Astrom ("Glee") will produce the music, while Tony Award winner Andy Blankenbuehler ("Hamilton") is attached to choreograph.

A re-imagining of the film premiered in 2004 titled "Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights," which was instead set in Cuba. Apart from that, 1988 saw the "Dirty Dancing" television series starring Patrick Cassidy as Johnny and Melora Hardin as Baby. The show, however, was cancelled after only 11 episodes.

Unlike NBC's "The Wiz Live!" or Fox's "Grease," the "Dirty Dancing" remake will not be live.
