A while back The Rock announced that he was making a new Big Trouble in Little China movie. This news went down like a turd in a swimming pool, you don’t remake cult classics like that.
Hiram Garcia, president of production at Dwayne Johnson’s Seven Bucks Productions and one of the producers on the film, tells Collider that they’re still going ahead with the movie and it’ll be a sequel, not a remake;
It’s still an ambition of ours but unfortunately there are complications that come with a legacy property like that which has so much attached to it from over the years. We have a really fun idea on what we’d want to do with it, especially since our goal was never to remake Big Trouble but simply continue it. Similar to what we did with Jumanji we would continue the story and make sure the original stands on it’s own since it means so much to us and fans all around the world. So needless to say we are still working on making that happen but as with any great project the road is not easy but we are sticking to it! We’re going to figure out a way to continue the story of Big Trouble in Little China.
John Carpenter is not involved in this. Apparently, neither is Kurt Russell. Carpenter sternly denounced the new movie and the studio when it was first announced.
Here’s the trailer for Clint Eastwood’s Cry Macho. Seems similar to The Marksman with Liam Neeson in some ways.
Synopsis: A onetime rodeo star and washed-up horse breeder, in 1978, takes a job from an ex-boss to bring the man’s young son home and away from his alcoholic mom. Crossing rural Mexico on their back way to Texas, the unlikely pair faces an unexpectedly challenging journey, during which the world-weary horseman may find his own sense of redemption through teaching the boy what it means to be a good man.
In theaters and streaming exclusively on HBO Max September 17.
Here’s a look at Dolph Lundgren in Operation Seawolf.

The film will also star Frank Grillo. Lundgren plays a U-Boat Captain who is sent to America for one last swing at the Allies in the dying days of the war. There’s probably a twist in there, is my guess.
Looky here…
