American SHAUN OF THE DEAD Remake in the works
Like remakes? Well here is another one for you. Universal along with Focus Features are butting heads again to bring Shaun back to the big screen. Unfortunately, Simon Pegg & Nick Frost will not be back for the “new and improved” American reboot. Early reports coming in are saying that the plan is to deliver an all-female reboot, and the character Shaun will be renamed Shauna. No word yet on if Edgar Wright will be involved in the remake, but we’re definitely curious to know what he thinks of it.
Released in 2007, Shaun of the Dead is romantic comedy that involves a depressed TV salesman, his ex-girlfriend, and their chubby friend who work together to survive a zombie outbreak. The movie quickly became a cult success and turned Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, and Edgar Wright into A-list talent.
So what do you guys think? Are you excited for a Shaun of the Dead remake? Do you think they can pull it off? Could it possibly be better than the original with its all-female cast? Let us know what you think.
