Planes, Trains & Automobiles is reportedly being remade with Will Smith and Kevin Hart in the starring roles.

Variety reports that Smith and Hart will also produce the movie and Aeysha Carr, who previously wrote and produced Brooklyn Nine-Nine and The Carmichael Show, will write the script. The remake reportedly has the same plot as the original where two strangers must work together to make it home to their families.

The original movie was released in 1987 and starred Steve Martin and John Candy. It was written and directed by John Hughes, and the first movie directed by Hughes after Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Planes, Trains & Automobiles ended up as the 25th highest grossing movie of 1987 worldwide, which is ahead of movies like Full Metal Jacket, Wall Street and Spaceballs.

It marks another remake for Smith, who recently came off a live-action remake of Disney's Aladdin where he played the Genie. It's currently the biggest box office hit of Smith's career. Smith is also reportedly producing a remake of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air that reimagines the show as a drama.

Hart recently starred in a remake of The Intouchables with Bryan Cranston and a sequel to the rebooted Jumanji. He will next be seen in the drama movie Fatherhood, which is currently set to hit movie theaters in April 2021.

Kevin Hart is certainly no John Candy, and I can't wait to see Will Smith just shout as a replacement for Steve Martin's dry wit.

Then you should have no problem with this remake since it will have literally zero effect on the original.

Is it one of those "remakes" that's more like a soft reboot or something? Kinda like Ghostbusters 2016?

I mean, Im sure itll be a fine movie.

But why does it have to be a remake? Why not just make an entirely different unrelated movie about people having traveling mishaps?

I feel like this concept is loose enough that they could make the same movie and call it something else, and then they wouldnt have to try to live up to Steve Martin and John Candy. It's honestly baffling that they would do this

Reminder that Will Smith turned down the role of Neo in Matrix because he believed in Wild Wild West.

To be completely honest, it based solely on recognition of the name.
