One of the most unexpected film projects just nabbed a couple of well-known actresses to flesh out its cast. Molly Ringwald and Juliette Lewis have joined the cast of the upcoming “Jem and the Holograms,” though there is no word on what role either of them will be taking on.
Ringwald, in particular, is certainly an appropriate choice, considering she shares one major thing with Jem and her musical friends. Both became icons of the 1980s. “Jem and the Holograms” aired from 1985 to 1988, and like “G.I. Joe” and “Transformers,” the whole point of her show was to sell toys.
