Should This Robin Williams' Classic Get A Remake?

Baywatch the movie hasn’t even finished filming and The Rock has already set his sights on his next big remake.

Jumanji. The Robin Williams 1995 cult classic. 

“It’s official,” he confirmed.

“We’ll produce and deliver to a whole new generation a title that I love and is one of my all time favs: There’s games you play for fun… then there’s games that change your life. JUMANJI.”

The Rock made the announcement on Instagram and a director, producer and filming date have already been locked in. 

While we love Dwayne Johnson, we’re just not sure we can let go of Robin William in the leading role – it’s part of his legacy after all!

Looks like we will have to wait and see.

Hopefully there is a respectful nod to the late actor in some way. 

It’s OFFICIAL: Love this script! Big movie news that me and my canine gal Shang are excited to share;) To produce, create and deliver original properties to fans like HBO’s #ballers to this summer’s #CentralIntelligence is one of the best parts of my job.  But to take great properties that are beloved worldwide like #BAYWATCH and #RAMPAGE and have the opportunity reimagine their stories in dope new ways to a whole new generation is truly an honor. It’s official. We’ll produce and deliver to a whole new generation a title that I love and is one of my all time favs:  There’s games you play for fun… then there’s games that change your life.  JUMANJI  Working on edging up an already very good script with my @sevenbucksprod team. Up next is meeting with our producer Matt Tolmach and director Jake Kasdan. Shooting starts this fall.  Promise to deliver something cool and special.. and not screw the whole damn thing up;). As always I’ll keep you posted. Casting this should be fun!  #JUMANJI #JungleLife #JustPressStart #SONYPictures

“Jumanji. A game for those who seek to find a way to leave their world behind. You roll the dice to move your token. Doubles gets another turn. And the first player to reach the end wins.”
