Who can forget one of the best Goldie Hawn movies, Overboard, starring her man Kurt Russell? Apparently everyone loves Overboard, the original!
Now, Hollywood has gone and made a remake, fans of the original are CLAPPING BACK in anger!
Today a hashtag #OverBoard movie has been trending and everyone is ANGRY Hollywood decided to remake this comedy. This time around Mom star Anna Faris and Eugenio Derbez. Read on…
The original 1987 Garry Marshall comedy Overboard starred Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. The plot line was as follows:
“A cruel but beautiful heiress mocks and cheats over a hired carpenter. When she gets amnesia after an accident, he decides to introduce her to regular life by convincing her they’re husband and wife.”
Of course, Hollywood believes they can make it better, but we are sorry Anna Faris is NO Goldie Hawn. If anyone was to remake this movie, it should have starred Kate Hudson and Amy Schumer, along with Goldie Hawn. It could have been more of a sequel.
No No No, Hollywood felt it was a great vessel for Anna Faris and Eugenio Derbez. Yes, they’ve decided to give it a Latino twist.
Here is the 2018 plot line:
A spoiled, wealthy yacht owner is thrown overboard and becomes the target of revenge from his mistreated employee. A remake of the 1987 comedy.
Wow, real original. NOT!
Twitter has been sounding off ALL DAY!
One angry fan Tweeted:
“#OverboardMovie remake looks atrocious. The plot was already a tenuous step away from creepy because of the charm of Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russel. In 2018 it just reads as incredibly tone deaf.”
Another followed:
“The ONLY Acceptable OVERBOARD movie is this one……. “
The comments didn’t stop as everyone wants an original Anna Faris movie, NOT a remake of a classic:
So, #OverboardMovie ? is coming out on April 20. Haha seems like another one of @AnnaKFaris‘ movie would have been better served with that premier date? pic.twitter.com/R7q420GL82
