Got that right. And any other major character.

I really don't see how you replace Emma Watson as Hermione. Anyone other than Watson playing that character doesn't feels right, it doesn't computes.

I have the same feeling, let alone to have a race swap.

It’s a totally unnecessary remake.

[–] Evoken (1319) a year ago

Agreed, the movies are perfectly fine and still hold up.

Has any remake ever been necessary?

[–] jk90us (5857) 7 days ago

Yeah.

The Thing
The Blob
The Fly
The Crazies

Apparently only films that start with “The” have great remakes. 🤔

Doesn't everything spark outrage now?

[–] jk90us (5857) a year ago

On both sides.

Don't be STUPID, the original cast are in their 30s!

I don't really care what race Hermione is, as long as the actor cast is in the right age range and does a good job.

It doesn't matter who the cast is, it's going to be odd seeing different actors in the roles. I'm not saying they won't do a good job, it's just going to be strange.

It will be an adjustment at first, but there have been lots of film and tv characters who have been played by different actors, so I don't think it is that big of a deal.
