Movie News – Whoopi Movie Remake
RYAN: Some classic movies should never be remade.
CAROLINE: Is “Sister Act” really a classic?
RYAN: Well, maybe a new classic. It was an international sensation when it first came out in 1992.
CAROLINE: Well it’s not a direct remake. It’s been running as an uber-successful stage musical in London’s West End for some time now.
RYAN: But the big question is – who on earth would dare to try filling Whoopi’s shoes in a remake?
CAROLINE: Oh God, I can’t think of anyone.
RYAN: Well, remember this is a musical version; so hopefully she’s a singer.
CAROLINE: Now I’m really worried.
RYAN: Beyoncé.
CAROLINE: What?!?! Please tell me this is a joke.
RYAN: Oh come on. I loved her in “Dreamgirls.”
CAROLINE: She’s not funny even a little bit.
RYAN: But she’ll sing the shhhh out of it.
CAROLINE: That’s true. And LBH, let’s be honest, I love a movie musical.
RYAN: Let’s jet over to London soon and check out the show so we can compare it to the film when it comes out.
CAROLINE: Deal. Your treat?
RYAN: Absolutely!
