It just could not possibly be even considered for a remake. It was written by Arthur Miller for and about Monroe. Speculation about a remake is absurd.

Juliane Moore? She's too old and not sexy and does not have the vulnerability Marilyn had.

There are many queens in Hollywood but there is only one king. Clark Gable.

Gay - Mel Gibson
Pilot - Charlie Sheen
Perce - Shia LaBouef
Roslyn - Lindsay Lohan

It was troubled actors then and should be troubled actors again.
