remake in light of new revelation?


since the identity of JTR has finally been uncovered I expect a slew of Ripper movies soon. so TAT is bound to be remade (actually one of the few movies that could benefit from an remake/update IMO)

e.gs

Guy Pearce/RDJ/jude law/Hiddelson/Cumberbatch - HG Wells
Jermey Irons/Ralph Finnes/Hiddelson/BCumberbatch - JTR
Rachel McAdams - amy
McDowell/Warner - cameos

yeah I know pearce/Irons were in The Time Machine remake but I could totally see them in those parts

when was this revealed?

reply

I think the identity of the Ripper has been revealed almost every year since I've been alive. It's always someone different. Is this one supposed to be more accurate somehow?

reply

turns out the new identity was one of the old suspects (Polish immigrant named Aaron Kosminski) and the theory has been dismissed more quickly than the others

Don't know about the true identity part,

BUT from your picks, I like the Law/Cumberbatch matchup. :D
