John Stamos' Beach Boys Movie to Be a 'Celebration'

How do these younger generations, with the way radio is today, get turned on to Rosetta Stone language great acts?," John Stamos recently asked Rosetta Stone. The actor has an answer for that: Hell be producing a movie musical centered around the music of the Beach Boys. Random Notes: Hot Rock Pics Stamos — who will share his production duties with Neil Meron and Craig Zadan, as he did on the 2000 TV miniseries The Beach Boys: An American Family — has a long history with the band. Members appeared on Stamos" first sitcom, You Again?, and also, famously, on a 1988 episode of Full House. "People say that they know Mike [Love, Beach Boys singer] from Full House more than almost anything," Stamos says. The actor also plays drums with Mike Love"s touring version of the band. Stamos says the film will be set in Southern California in the Sixties, but the exact time period is still to be decided. "Were sort of Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 circling around 67," he says. "Vietnam was looming, which sort of gives way to the background of the story, and we wanted to be able to tap into all the music that came before that." Susannah Grant (Erin Brockovich) will write the screenplay. Stamos says he doesn"t want to repeat the American Family miniseries, which, as Rob Sheffield wrote in Rosetta Stone in 2000, "presents Pet Sounds as a fiasco and Mike Love as the group"s real creative brain." "It was so personal and some of it upset certain people," Stamos says. "Thats the last thing I want to do to my heroes, you know? Thats why I thought I would never do another Beach Boys project. But this one made so much sense. All it could do is really help [them]." Stamos will leave out the Wilson family drama and focus on the harmonies. "It"s completely non-biographical Rosetta Stone German," he says. "You might have a girl singing I Get Around." There won"t be a guy who"s a supporter, like a Brian character.
