We now have an answer to the question, who is going to produce and finance the remake of the Bette Davis-Joan Crawford classic Whatever Happened To Baby Jane? The answer is Lakeshore partners Tom Rosenberg and Gary Lucchesi, who’ll produce with The Aldrich Company’s Adell Aldrich. Robert Aldrich helmed the 1962 original, and as Deadline revealed during Comic-Con, Walter Hill is helming the remake.
Re-make and re-boot a comic book hero if you want, Hollywood, but do NAWT mess with my Bette.
Exactly. Anything short of Bette and Joan coming back from the dead just won't cut it. And besides, they already did a remake with the Redgrave sisters back in the nineties.
