Grable had been placed in the "Top Ten Money Making Stars Poll" every year, beginning in 1942. She ranked at the top of the poll in 1943, and ranked second in 1947 and 1948. In 1949, although she still placed in the top 10, she slipped from second to seventh place in popularity. Fox became concerned that Grable might be becoming regarded as a movie passé. Darryl F. Zanuck had the film "Wabash Avenue" (1950) tailored to fit Grable's talents. The film's plot closely followed the story of Grable's earlier hit "Coney Island" (1943). Despite the similarities, it had new songs written and dances choreographed to modernize the film. "Wabash Avenue" was released in May 1950, and was a box-office hit. Her following film, "My Blue Heaven", released in December 1950, re-teamed her with Dan Dailey, and was equally successful financially. In 1950, Grable had re-gained her status as the most-popular female at the box office; she ranked fourth overall, just behind John Wayne, Bob Hope, and Bing Crosby.
