Religion, even extreme expression, should not be the motivating factor for the antagonist in a Carrie reboot. That is low hanging fruit in 2019. A lot of people already accept that there are a lot of nutcases with religious views, especially ones who are anti gay, anti transgender and so on. That wasnt the case back in the 70s, when Carrie was published. It was more controversial, at least back then, to cast Christianity, for example, in a bad light.

Id rather see them work out an antagonist(s) today as someone more ideal and acceptable in thought and appearance. Jordan Peele did this recently in Get Out, when he showed a family that was very educated, accepting and progressive, but their true selves were deceptive, manipulative and violent.
But that's the book. You shouldnt deviate from the book. I hate movies that change book details to make the movie appeal to today's audience. Just adapt the damn book.
