The thing is this movie could never be cast the same way today, because they can't have 3 males fighting the shark , they'd have to have at least one of them be a female. Unless I am wrong 'bout that sort of thing, am I wrong?
So:
So one of these:
Brody, Hooper or Quint would have to be an actress.

Quint: Gary Oldman
Chief Brody: Michael Fassbender
Matt Hooper: Chris Pratt
Ellen Brody: Michelle Williams
Mayor Vaughn: Bryan Cranston
Ben Gardner: John Goodman
Mrs. Kintner: Frances McDormand
Chrissy Watkins: Kate Upton
... I wouldn't object to seeing more agency on the part of female characters. Like perhaps make Mrs. Brody a fellow policeman or one of the town council members. However Chief Brody should still deliver the killing blow since that was the fulfillment of his character arc.

The shark will be off a casino-resort whose vain owner minimizes the risk as he convenes a meeting with Russians.

If a remake ever gets off the ground, I'd be skeptical.
But not because of the fact that it likely wouldn't surpass the original movie. I don't think that's fair given the '75 movie's place in film history, but it'd have little choice but to follow the book more closely than Spielberg did. In order to better distinguish itself. And apparently from what I heard, the book is surprisingly not that great.
Or ditch the original characters and story beats, which is not inherently terrible but would turn off most people who remember the original movie. Aside from that most likely it'd be terrible to do so.

Let's not and say we did unless the new version shows how sharks are in peril from things that man does to it such as cutting off the fins for soup and then throwing the shark overboard to die later on. |
