Reboots tend to have a negative connotation in Hollywood, a reputation mostly justified. in 1968 monkey planetin 1976 carrieand in 1991 breaking point they are all classic movies whose reputation has taken a hit after being rebooted in the 21st century. I’d like to believe that reboots are driven by creativity and the challenge of reimagining a familiar story in modern times. Unfortunately, reboots tend to be financially motivated and seen as a grab for cash to capitalize on existing intellectual property.

I say all this to present the next film that we will see in May, Whites can’t jumpa reboot of the 1992 film of the same name. The 2023 version stars Sinqua Walls (American Soul) as Kamal and Jack Harlow (The Instigators) as Jeremy, reimagined roles played by Wesley Snipes (Blade) and Woody Harrelson (champions) in the original. As in the first film, Kamal and Jeremy go after players to win money, culminating in a lucrative basketball tournament with a $500,000 jackpot. Walls and Harlow have real chemistry in the trailer, providing just enough intrigue to make this movie worth watching.

The Little Mermaid – Official Announcement Announcement

Disney has been creating live-action remakes of its animated classics since the 1990s. Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, 101 Dalmatians, and 102 Dalmatians demonstrated that audiences are interested in seeing Disney animation brought to life with human actors. The strategy began to develop slowly in 2010 after the success Alice in Wonderland. However, 2019 turned out to be a turning point for Disney after the live-action remakes. Aladdin and Lion King each grossed over a billion dollars worldwide. It seems like every Disney animated movie has a live action remake.

The next Disney animated film to get the live-action treatment is Little Mermaid. Halle Bailey (The Color Purple) stars as Ariel, a mermaid princess who wants to be a part of the human world. Ariel makes a deal with the wicked sea witch Ursula (Bridesmaid Melissa McCarthy) to trade her voice for human legs to explore her potential love, Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King of World on Fire). Initially, the trailer received mixed reactions due to the wonky CGI and commitment to creating realistic animals. However, the soundtrack of Little Mermaid It’s fantastic, and kids will be drawn to this story, so I bet it’s going to become Disney’s next billion-dollar hit.
