Will This Movie Ever Be Remade??

Will they ever remake this for modern day at some point and if so, who's Dr. Kimble and who's Samuel Gerard?? Kimble would definitely be a man of diversity in the modern day version

This movie is well made in many aspects, it has no dated CGI or anything that will label it ''dated''. A remake of it will be a bad idea and my guess is that it's gonna suck hard

Possibly the best thriller of all time. At least for me.

The acting, the writing, the pacing & the tension are just sublime. Close to if not absolutely perfect.

It is also a great rewatch, I have watched it several times over the years

Most definitely. Just caught it on tv like a week or two ago. And no matter how many times I've seen it, it never stops being tense af.

Same as T2

This was an adaptation of a 60's TV show, so a modern remake is likely. I don't care if the new Kimble is diverse or whatnot, as long as it's a good movie. It probably won't be, and almost certainly won't be better than this one, but who knows.

I don't want a remake. You are not topping Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones, Joe Pantoliano, or Andreas Katsulas. It's bad enough they are remaking Eraser with no popular actors.

Now that was a good question!
Wasn't it "??"

This was already a remake of a tv show. Why go through it a third time? No point.

I’m not opposed to remaking a movie but when one is perfect and stars a great cast why bother?

Yes. It was called 'Taken 3'.
