Some movies should never be sequelized, rebooted, or remade – and Big Trouble in Little China is definitely one of them – but that doesn’t mean we haven’t resigned ourselves to the fact it’s destined to happen eventually.
Based on the overwhelming negativity to the initial announcement, though, it would be fair to say that nobody wants Dwayne Johnson to have anything to do with it. The actor and producer’s Seven Bucks have been attached to a spiritual successor to John Carpenter’s cult classic since mid-2015, and even if it hasn’t materialized as of yet, it hasn’t quite disappeared either.
