Why not a good remake?

With all the Hollywood remakes, why not give us a new City Hunter movie?

Any cast suggestions?
Maybe Christian Bale as Ryo Saeba and Maggie Gyllenhaal as Kaori Makimura?

In the manga they haven't oriental aspect and I think they should americanize their names.

I know they both appeared in The Dark Knight but I can't find another actress who reminds me of Kaori at the moment.

I wondered about that myself, but let's try looking away from actors already loaded down by franchises.

And if anything, if they decide to make an American version, DO NOT use this one as a template for how it should be!

How about casting...oh, I don't know...an actual JAPANESE guy to play a Japanese private detective?

Yes with female nudity and hot actresses and awesome martial arts.
