Sylvester Stallone opens up about remaking the 1970’s exploitation vigilante classic, Death Wish. “I’m thinking about it,” Stallone says. He would continue to add the following:
“It’s a classic morality tale, where you take a civilized man and take away everything that matters to him so he becomes primitive again…The story’s been done many times, and when it’s done well, it’s an emotionally engaging film. The trouble with remakes is that people fall in love with the original. It’s like peanut butter. If you try to change the taste of peanut butter, you’re in trouble.”
John Rambo would also speak about the possibility of a Cliffhanger sequel. “I hear they’re gonna remake it,” he states. Poking fun at his age, the 63-year old action vet would go on to say, “You know you’ve been around when they start to remake your own movies when you’re still alive.” Stallone’s the man!
