Kevin Hart Developing Scrooged Remake For Paramount According to The Hollywood Reporter, Hart will produce a remake of the Bill Murray holiday classic via his Hartbeat Productions. The studio is eyeing Hart for a major role in the film, though exactly who he'd play wasn't disclosed. However, the project is viewed as a vehicle for the comedian, so it's possible he'll play the lead role of Frank Cross. You know, it's basically a Christmas Carol remake. Just say it's that. And I do not want Hart to be the Scrooge role, it's too obvious. He needs to be one of the Ghost IMO.
THis is one of my favorite movies. I dunno, Billy Murray's style is so genius, so understated and smart alecky. He played the role perfectly. Any other actor would just turn it into "A Christmas Carol - comedy version" which just wouldn't be right.
I whole heartedly agree. Bill Murray’s version directed by Richard Donner is a great holiday (screw that)Christmas movie.
You just don't have any appreciation of it then. Or are you a secret lover of the film and just won't say it to us all lol. Had to mess with ya my brada.
Scrooged is too much of a classic to just be simply redone. This will end up being the equivalent of the Annie remake.
