Hollywood has been working its way through remaking many popular movies from years past. However, Geena Davis wants producers to stay away from her 1991 movie Thelma & Louise.
Per IndieWire, Davis recently attended the Bentonville Film Festival. She spoke about Thelma & Louise, commenting on the possibility of the film getting a modern remake. Davis is not a fan of the idea, feeling that the original holds up so well that a remake isn’t necessary. She went on to praise the work Ridley Scott did as director on the movie, pushing back on some criticism there had been for having a man direct the feminist classic.
On the idea of remakes in general, she added, “It would have to be better. I’m all in favor of making movies that didn’t really work again and making it work. That would be great. Thank God nobody ever tried to remake Casablanca or something. … So far! I’m grateful. I would not be happy about that.”
