I'm way ahead of this because I absolutely HATE the originals because of how often they play them on TV. The transphobic writer of the original wanting to do a do-over most likely because the original cast spoke out against her is also real atrocious as well.
The franchise is actually really bad when you think about it. Full of plotholes and really poor writing but the vibe of the original movie (and maybe the sequel) was really spot on for that time period.
The best writers can do is take creative control from her and add things that will show her up, like what they did in the latest videogame, and add transgender characters and actors.
Wait that's why they're doing this? What a clown she is.
she wanted to rewrite the characthers, probably to her "terf beliefs" and people already indicated in the past her books were already what she currently believes in, just very subtle.
Oh God.... She's absolutely going to create a monster that pretends to be a human as some kind of lazy "Trans Bad" parable..
This is going to be the fucking Heathers Reboot all over again
No idea if it's true, but it's a rumor I've heard that sounds plausible enough. Can't speak for all the cast, but I'm fairly certain the main trio have spoken up against her, though.
she probably want different actors, or rewriting to make it look like they cant question her terf. she will be hardpressed to find someone who is an actor and is a terf like her, those actors have largely been expelled from hollywood, and only making shitty christian or anti-woke movies.
