NEW YORK, July 28 (UPI) -- Broadway legend Idina Menzel is to headline a 2017, small-screen re-make of Beaches.
"She will take on the role of CC Bloom [Bette Midler's part,] and cover its iconic songs 'Wind Beneath My Wings' and 'The Glory of Love,'" Menzel's website said Thursday. "The new version will also feature two new original songs performed by Idina, 'Crazy Stupid Love' and 'If I Stay.'"
