The unnecessary reboot/remake of the week thread

[Rowdy Roddy McDowall]

Probably a good thing with the main actress having proclaimed controversial viewpoints over the years.

Hardly the first time. Vanessa Redgrave's role acting was entirely separated from her personal viewpoints. Charlton Heston thought in his bio it'd be foolish not to cancel Redgrave or anyone else for their views. What did Bialik say to thwart the fictional reboot?

The team behind Cobra Kai might be tackling another 80s property but this time for the big screen.

Kelly McCormick and David Leitch of 87North are among those producing a big-screen take on the 1980s show about a cool handsome man and his cool talking car.

Hmm... Will it be a dramatic remake like Miami Vice (sucked) or one with more of a comedy bent like 21 Jump Street or Starsky & Hutch?

Hopefully they'll find a broken-down 82 Trans Am in a junkyard and rebuild it as a part of the film. I think William Daniels is still alive. Will they pull him out of retirement, or at the very least get a contract from him to sample his voice for AI use as the voice of K.I.T.T.?

They need the car be the old Trans Am. Knight Rider just isn't the same if the car looks different and modern.
