At the time, the former couple had already reached a settlement. Grey was to retain all of her earnings and residuals from both 1987’s “Dirty Dancing” and 2004’s “Dirty Dance 2: Havana Nights,” even though she did not appear in the adaptation. The two were set to split royalties and residuals on several notable projects, including several Marvel properties in which Gregg played Agent Phil Coulson.

As per the agreement, the “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” actor agreed to give her a ten percent cut of any gross earnings for feature films and a five percent cut of gross earnings for work on any TV series.

Details about the project are being kept under wraps for now, but Grey told PEOPLE in November 2020 that they won’t try to replicate the love affair she had with Patrick Swayze’s character, as the "Ghost" actor passed away in 2009 from pancreatic cancer at the age of 57.

"All I can say is there is no replacing anyone who's passed — you never try to repeat anything that's magic like that," she said at the time. "You just go for something different." Grey will also executive produce the sequel and praised the “very genuine and simple” premise of the original movie.

"It was about innocence and the way that innocence is lost and how people explode into a different iteration of themselves," she added. "Dirty Dancing was a fairy tale, a successful movie and formula, using dance as a metaphor for embodying your energy and getting out of your head, and your limiting belief systems.”

At this time, no information about a release date has been revealed.
