Step Up series is stated to be a sexy music-filled drama about dancers in a contemporary performing arts school. It was announced that the show will begin production later this year and will debut exclusively as the first original scripted series on YouTube Red next year.

YouTube Red is currently available in the United States, Australia and New Zealand, with plans for additional international expansion throughout 2016.

The original Step Up (2006) featured Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan. Four more films followed in quick succession – Step Up 2: The Streets, Step Up: 3D, Step Up: Revolution and Step Up: All In – as the franchise grew into a popular global dance and film production. The last two films of the Step Up series were released by Lionsgate’s Summit Entertainment label.
