James Dean, who died in a 1955 car crash at the age of 24, is making an unexpected return to the big screen.

The cultural icon, known for Rebel Without a Causeand East of Eden, has been posthumously cast in the Vietnam era action-drama Finding Jack.

Directed by Anton Ernst and Tati Golykh, the project comes from the filmmakers' own recently launched production house Magic City Films, which obtained the rights to use Dean’s image from his family. Canadian VFX banner Imagine Engine will be working alongside South African VFX company MOI Worldwide to re-create what the filmmakers describe as “a realistic version of James Dean.”

As seen in Star Wars, we're not there yet.

Should have just gotten James Franco, would have cost a lot less.

I don't like this at all. For a movie like Rouge One it made sense b/c Tarkin not being around would be strange and they used him sparingly. But to do an entire movie? That's kind of pushing it.

Yes he did, I'm interested enough to show up.

Always been a massive Dean fan.

They could have saved some work & just hired James Deen to play the part.
