'Clue' reboot starring Ryan Reynolds
In August 2016, FOX began working on a remake on the 1985 cult classic Clue. Universal previously tried to do the film before FOX got the rights.
http://www.comingsoon.net/movies/new...th-century-fox Now Ryan Reynolds is attached to star in the film with Deadpool scriptwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick penning the script. http://www.comingsoon.net/movies/new...-deal-with-fox As a teenager I thought this film was hilarious and when I still turn it on the movie still makes me laugh to this day. I'm hoping that this remake pays a lot of tribute to the original. Reynolds could play any of the three male suspects. |

My mind is just reeling of all of the awesome people that Ryan Reynolds has worked with who could play all the various characters.
Sam Jackson Morena Baccarin Blake Lively Hugh Jackman ...

I could see Ryan Reynolds play the Tim Curry role.

Just in case no one has even seen the original film, here is the trailer for it.

If they remake the original Clue they better bring their A game; that film is a certified comedy classic

And they should totally have the 3 different endings like the original, and have it spread out to different theaters like they did before.

Jennifer Lawrence, Amy Adams and Emma Stone are my top choices for Miss Scarlet. I know that in the more recent versions of the game, Mrs. White has been dropped and replaced by a new female named Dr. Orchid. The new character brought diversity to the game. She could still have the same background story as Mrs. White especially because it was a big part of the original movie or they just do something different.
Also, if anyone hasn't seen the original someone reviewed its three endings and that even though the home video version said the third ending is "what really happened", could it actually be the "true ending?" Spoiler:

That movie was so good I was legitimately angry that it ended.

I enjoy the original movie, but what could be done differently to merit the gimmick of Clue to get a remake and be different and as possibly good?

The original was a gem, still is.
Don't screw this up, Ryan! |

I see no reason to see a remake of a movie they did so good the first time.

Clue had three endings, but a fourth one was also filmed. The directors and producers decided to cut because it was apparently way too dark and even more crazy. The footage is presumably lost forever, but here are some summaries of it.

Also, here's the story about how the original film went from a forgotten flop to a cult classic.

The writers of the reboot said that there's a chance that the film could be R-rated. That really doesn't surprise me since their previous work includes Deadpool.

A R-rated version of Clue would be as good a s a PG-13 version of Robocop or Total Recall.

Paul Wernick, the script-writer, gave an update on the film during an interview the other day.

I really hope they base it on the real version of Clue and not the modern remake of the game where they're all spies or something. That sh*t was way too overcomplicated for what the game is.
They did a series of comedic children's books in the mid-90s that nailed "Clue" perfectly, and were a genuine laugh riot. That would be a good place to draw inspiration from.
