shareThe link says it's a remake. Neeson will be playing Frank Drebin Jr, the son of Frank Drebin Sr.
shareMaybe they changed it so he's playing the original version ?
But with 'legacy sequels' being the in thing now Id guess it'd be a sequel with him playing the son as opposed to a remake as the OG Frank (maybe they plan to keep him as the son as an end twist now?)
The original rumour was that it would be rebooted with the son of Frank Drebin. Either that changed to a remake and IMDb hasn't updated it, or the article is wrong by calling it a remake.
Isn't Liam Neeson a bit too old to play Frank Drebin Jr? The original movie sort of took place in the late 80's when it was released. So Junior would have been born somewhere in the 90s, I figure.
I HEAR A LOT OF DETECTIVES END UP DIVORCING/LOSING THEIR FAMILY BASED ON THE JOB...PERHAPS DREBIN HAD A FAMILY BEFORE THE EVENTS OF THE SHOW/FILMS.
shareRight, that didn't cross my mind. You've got a point there. I was too keen on that he was supposed to be the son of Frank Sr and Jane Spencer, considering the third movie and how that ended.
shareI was hoping they'd abandoned this.
