Earlier this year it was revealed that StudioCanal is planning to remake Nicolas Roeg’s classic 1973 horror Don’t Look Now, and speaking to Metro ahead of the release of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2, original star Donald Sutherland has offered some harsh words for those behind the project.
“Don’t embarrass yourselves by participating in it,” said Sutherland, who co-starred in the film with Julie Christie. “It’s bullshit. It was a piece of work indelibly written by Nicholas Roeg. Why would they do it? It’s just people trying to profit off the back of something that’s very beautiful. It’s shameful. They should be ashamed of themselves.”
Do you agree with Sutherland? Or are you interested in seeing another take on Don’t Look Now? Let us know in the comments below…
