Producers of Streetdance 3D will be scouting dancers to appear in the sequel Streetdance 2 (working title) at the UDO World Street Dance Championships 2010 this August.
The selected group will follow in the steps of Diversity, George Sampson and Flawless and appear in 3D on the silver screen, although the chosen group may not be the winner.
Simon Dibley, chief executive of the United Dance Organisation, said: “We’re so excited that the street dance stars of the future will be again, found from within the UDO’s huge talent pool.”
He continued: “[Dancers like] George Sampson has grown up with the UDO and it’s fantastic to know that it won’t be long before even more of our groups are hitting the limelight.”
