As a huge Russell and Plissken fan, this will hurt watching yet another pillar of my childhood refurbished but luckily Carpenter will be involved.

LINK

Gerard Butler was rumored attached to a previous reboot. Who would be decent choices?

Russell was 30 when EFNY was filmed so I would think someone in that range (25-35).

Disqualified:
Shia LaBeouf
Channing Tatum

Possibles:
Emile Hirsch
Charlie Hunnam

No Angel Eyes, no Marty, no care.

They can make ScarJo "Maggie" and I still don't care to watch it.

JGL or Idris Elba would be the two most obvious choices

I thought I had it in there.

Carpenter is Executive Producer.

I've never seen EFNY, but have seen EFLA more than a few times. Guess I need to watch it.

Yeah - EFLA was terrible, terrible, terrible.

EFNY is a great fun Carpenter film - close between this and BTILC for my favorite Carpenter movie.

Book was great.

Interestingly, Snake's mode of transport at the beginning of the book sounds a lot like the tube transport system Musk is proposing.

I was trying to think of some GoT actors who might be possible and for a fleeting second, I thought of him but he just doesn't fit for me.

Only guy that really fits would be Locke or Blackfish if they were younger.
