Hollywood’s Most Memorable Remakes: The Stars Now and Then
Apr 4, 2012 @ 12:15 pmWhat’s old is new again! Fifteen-year-old Chloe Moretz recently landed the leading role in the forthcoming remake of Carrie, a character first made famous by Sissy Spacek in 1976. And the Stephen King thriller isn’t the only reboot coming our way: Carey Mulligan is starring in a fresh take on The Great Gatsby, while new versions of Annie and A Star is Born are also in the works. It’s not that Hollywood is fresh out of new ideas—it’s that these ideas are just so worthy of watching, generation after generation. Check out some of our favorites in the gallery.
Another remake when there are so many new stories to be told and writers waiting for their stories to be heard. Another role in which Carey is from a wealthy or at least nice background, beautifully dressed and in beautiful surroundings. I like her but common, the same Carey in every character.
