Sounds vaguely familiar, but I don't "remember it from one line." George -
This show was originally to be an adventure drama, "Seven Against the Sea." It was re-tooled as a comedy and was very successful. The star of the show originally turned down the role, figuring that as an Oscar-winning actor, TV would have been a bit of a demotion. But when talking with a young boy who didn't recognize him but who could name the stars of several TV shows, he decided to take the part, one for which he is probably best remembered. George

This biopic about a singer had the lead role offered to Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Cruise, Bruce Willis, and Johnny Depp. None of them would likely have done their own singing, but the actor who finally got the part did (and quite well, IMHO). The movie is also a love story. The actual couple were only a few years apart in age, but the actors were over 20 years apart. George

It is a song, but it's the showstopper from a famous movie (musical). George

No. Note that the "third movie" was not a sequel. It just starred the same three actors. George

Obviously, someone's really old, probably a vampire, so there wouldn't be many older women around. The Vampire Diaries? George -

I could have sworn I posted this. I must have hit "Back" instead of "Submit Reply." I do that with unnerving frequency. Anyway, Ernesto doesn't seem apt to strike the US. George

I can hear the whiny voice. I just can't remember the song. George -

The end title song is Billy Ocean's "When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going". In the music video for the song, the three stars of the film lip-sync and dance as doo-wop backup singers. Because the three stars were not members of the Musicians Union, the video was banned in the UK. Despite this handicap, the song would be Ocean's first #1 UK hit. The female lead tried to quit this production because she hated the script, but the male lead (who was also the producer) and the studio threatened to sue her, so she relented. As a matter of fact, she was right: The movie opened to poor reviews. Their sparring did not stop them from making yet a third movie together; along with the third co-star, a few years later. George
