OWEN WILSON as The Greatest American Hero (I wish)


I think Owen Wilson would be the perfect choice. He could resemble the original one, he's goofy and clumsy, and could pull the part off perfectly.

Oh my god, owen wilson would rock. I was thinking of possibly will farrel also. But owen wilson is probably the best choice I could think of.

Owen, Will, both good choices but I would prefer Jon Heder.

Those are all good ideas but the problem with remakes is that they will not be done the sameway as the original show was done to be honest with you. Look at some of the remakes that they have done. Sure they use the characters from the original TV show but does it have the same plot as what we grew up on?

No they do not! That is why I do not like remakes. I feel it should not be done and The Greatest American Hero should be left alone.

Word. keep all those idiots away. I would rather have some unknown who fits the part than a big name that sucks.
