20 Movies You Didn’t Know Were Being Rebooted

With this month alone seeing the release of numerous remakes and reboots like Ghostbusters, The Legend of Tarzan and The BFG, it seems that Hollywood is endlessly plundering the treasures of its past instead of creating new properties.

Here come the Men in Black… again. After the Men in Black franchise crosses over with the 21 Jump Street series in MiB23 (no, really, that is a thing), Sony plans to restart the series without the involvement of Will Smith or Tommy Lee Jones. The studio is thinking long term, as there are already talks of a new trilogy floating around. For casting, all we know is that they are aiming for at least one central female role.  

The Jungle Book

What? Again? We literally just had a new Jungle Book this year?! Well, that’s the trouble with books that are in the public domain – anybody can make a movie version of them. Unrelated to Disney’s recent hit, Andy Serkis will direct (and star as Baloo) in this Warner Bros. take on Rudyard Kipley’s classic. Originally, it went by the title of Jungle Book: Origins, but this has since been streamlined to just Jungle Book. Its cast does rival Disney’s, though, with Benedict Cumberbatch, Cate Blanchett, Christian Bale and Naomie Harris all set to star. It’s pencilled in for a 19th October 2018 release date.
