American actor John Travolta has reportedly promised to buy snacks for residents of his adopted hometown of Ocala, after they campaigned to have his movie shown at local movie theatres.

”Grease” has been re-released in the U.S. but it was not showcased in Ocala.

However, an online competition was launched, with organisers promising to show the film in the city with the most votes – and residents in Ocala won the contest.

“I want to thank you, my hometown, for showing your support for the Grease Sing A-Long and bringing it to the Regal Hollywood 16 in Ocala,” the Daily Star quoted Travolta as telling Ocala.com.

“I am so impressed that show times sold out, I would like to treat each Grease Sing A-Long ticket holder to a popcorn, soda and candy item when you attend the movie on July 8th, 9th or 10th. Just show your ticket when you arrive.

“Wish I could be there with you. Enjoy Grease Sing A-Long!” said Travolta.
